Yes, even if Ronnie would lead 17-0 in the final, he'll say: Ronnie never won a World final from that position before.

These semi finals are adding to what has been a bitterly disappointing tournament. Amazing to think day one was arguably the best day of the event

He shouldn't take too much of Ebdon's advice otherwise his hair will start falling out.

Do you remember the days when the Hendrys, Hunters, Higgins, Williams, Ronnies were lighting up these tournaments.
I miss those days, days where you really had TOP players performing to their brilliant bests.

Disapp0inting to you, maybe. I for one have enj0yed the tournament immensely. And the icing on the cake will be when Ronnie lifts the famous trophy again.

ROUND 1 - SCOTLANDS DOTT HAS A NIGHTMARE
ROUND 2 - SCOTLANDS HIGGINS HAS A NIGHTMARE
QUARTERS - SCOTLANDS HENDRY HAS A NIGHTMARE
SEMIS - SCOTLANDS MAGUIRE HAS A NIGHTMARE

It's been different. But yes it would be really nice for Ronnie to go out with a bang, just to show he can still perform to the highest standard.

Yeah he says it's disappointing because his favourite player isnt on the event anymore... Had Dott won this event with the rest of the matches paning out as they did here he would say it was a great event...
Last year my least favourite player won the event and I think it was one of the best ever. He just cant watch Ronnie win it....

It would have been better if Trump had not choked against Carter and lost four in a row. A Trump - O'Sullivan final could have been a classic.

The only drama we've had is all the top seeds being knocked out, when really it should've been close matches with the seeds prevailing.

He already proved that he still can perform to the highest standard against Robbo

To be fair there haven't been many classic matches this year. Trump v Carter was one and Ronnie vs Robbo was the other, with JJ3 vs Carter another possible contender.

But Ebdon will definately be giving him some good tactics on how to cope with Ronnie... namely taking more than 5 minutes on a break of 12

He's still got to win it, and I hate to say it but I think Carter could grind him down a bit this year.
