It seems like two of the best players (Gray and O'Neill) were pitted against each other, seeing as O'Neill is battering Stephen Ormerod, while Gray at least got four frames. Never mind, this isn't even the start of the qualifiers proper, so it doesn't matter much.

yes I agree, that match was the hardest to predict for me because those two are very good players, and honestly dont know how they do the draw for this, but dont care too much..

and by the way, what is happening in the O'Neil match?? technical difficulties????

Patrick Wallace 1-2 Joe Delaney
Ian Stark 0-3 David Singh
Stephen Ormerod 0-4 Jamie O'Neill
Del Smith 2-3 Justin Astley

I get it, I think it had something to do with the scoreboard... match underway again

Ormerod is bad enoough but to lose 5-0 as well is just rubbing it in.

Just interviewed Kyren, he's had lots of interesting and topical things to say. He's been practicing with Peter Ebdon so has inside info in that regard and also talked a lot about playing in the badminton hall in the world qualifiers. Because of these factors I'm going to try and get his interview transcribed asap instead of leaving it till the Q School to publish.

Were the games in the Badminton Hall today or the Academy bit?

I assume everything will be in the badminton hall

They move into the badminton hall on Saturday

Hey Paddy, you're famous - nice photo of you in SS mag this month, will be for sale at the Crucible too

one thing Kyren sheds a bit of light on is this stupid pre-qualifier event going on at the moment. He said (spoiler alert) that had he known the "pro-ticket" tour didn't have a pro-ticket at the end of it, he'd have renewed his membership and be playing these pre-qualifiers for the Worlds.

And I tell you what, he'd have had a shout at getting to the Crucible. Straight up.

Great work on your part. This is all valuable information.

Yes Paddy your name is in lights as Paddy Lowson (referee). From left to right it goes Graeme Dott (pulling a cheesy), Len Ganley, Mark Selby.

Sorry but you'll have to buy the magazine to know what I'm talking about
