If Selby wins today he will have 3 rankers and 2 majors - more than most. I do think he will win the World title and this year he has a great shout.

Higgins and Williams in poor form, He has beaten Ronnie in majors before.....Trump would be the biggest stumbling block.

Selby just played better, but overall they were two very disappointing SF's.

Selby just has to Turn up to play Ronnie and for whatever reason he goes in to his head and in to his Fans Head.

it was 2 men playing a Game of Snooker and one handled it better than the other playing Badly.

Amazing so much negativity regarding Selby.




Come on Mark,time to get another ranking title as you say,"under your belt" and sicken your critics.



I wonder what comments will be written bout Selby if he really does pull this off and win. <laugh>




The usual tripe will get written,eg,..."he had the run of the balls","played too slow","played to negative".YAWWWWN!. <doh>




It takes a damn lottttttttttttttttttt more than that too win a tourney,never mind a match!.




It,s crystal clear why some are trying to dis-credit Selby.How dare Selby beat Ronnie!,Well boooooooooooooooo hoooooooooooooooooo folks!. :baby: <laugh>









Ronnie had morrrrrrre than enough chances yesterday,he simply was,nt good enough,his safety was off song,his pottin was off song, his positioning was off song last night,it,s simple really!.The ones who think otherwise either need there pea brain seen to,or they don,t have a clue bout snooker,or there just fulllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll of sour grapes!.

Explain that to Rigsby fans! All they want is best of 5 frame matches, shot clocks, safety play banned, shouting out whilst players are on the shot, bikini clad women holding up numbered cards between frames, and beer tables for the crowd to watch the matches from.

Robbo v selby has never happened in a major yet so Robbo has to be a big threat to mark as well.

So a world semi would end that wait :-)

yea i do actually agree with that but some seem to think Selby is a boring rubbish....im still trying to figure out what plannet they are on <ok>

Great match so far. 2-2 seems fair. Two centuries from Mark a good break from Ding and a tense dramatic frame to end it. Potential 13 frames left.

By the way does anyone why The world champion is automatically top seed the following year as in most other sports their seeded in the spot they are in the ranking just before the cut off point before their defence of the title.

A possible change in future years by Barry ?

They could still play on the first saturday but just not automatically top seed

Defending champ=no 1
World Champ = no 2
Ranking = no 3-128

I just feel with Barry and is interest in having a 128 draw like tennis

It may be another possible change at some stage ;-)
