This is a snooker forum. Are you lost?


No. I am responding to something a commentator just said whilst I was watching a snooker match. Are you not watching it? <doh>



I doubt the commentator can hear your moronic remarks through the telly. :-)

I could barely give a monkeys, cos the UK will be something he's remembered for for the rest of his life.


Its the draw when you get there though, he doesn't want to be playing a Higgins/Selby/Trump first round.

1st round, 2nd round, what's the difference ? If anything the top players are more vulnerable early on anyway :shrug:

Ronnie doesent really want to trudge up to cubicles in sheffield to play one qualifier believe me hes just being Ronnie and talking bullocks he was worried than most today just putting a brave face on.

regarding a one match to qualify that should be pretty easy for him...but he dont want to be there.

yeh the fact is Ronnie hates tournaments now, so god knows how hed feel playing in qualifiers

be a bit of a joke actually imagining Ronnie turning up alongside all the journeymen at the qualifiers really wouldnt it

if Ronnie was playing badly and was rubbish going to qualifiers it would be easier and accept it but in his mind he will proberbly be angry about the PTC and blame them for his plight and might be in the wrong frame of mind at qualifiers....these players can play in cubicles.

then again as much as itd be a nightmare round 1 draw for the seeds facing Ronnie, itd be even worse for those making it through to the last qualifying round only to face Ronnie. Reckon that might intimidate the normally solid cubicle players a bit.

Strange last year we had 12 different winners and if Gould wins he becomes the 4th two time winner of the year?

This is very much the good side of the PTCs. I'm no communist and don't care who gets all the money, but Someone like Ford can build on this. I for one have wondered why he hasn't done more in the last 3/4 years so this is at least something to build on as he's beaten some decent players. And the cash will not be unwelcome either.
MG will be gutted he's let 5 big ones slip but he's doing pretty good in these overall.
