I dont know why the ever got rid of the globes beside the players chairs from the Embassy era

They always made it seem different and you definetly knew it was the Worlds, they were part of the tournament for me and i wish theyd stayed

the set is ten a penny and doesnt have that extra stamp of the worlds on it

Looking forward to the Ronnie Return find out if he is as Good as Ebdon being Saying or just another Hype.

yeah definately agree with that Witz, the Globes were part of the World's own identity and it's a shame they got rid of it..

But to be honest I'm more than used to it now cause it's been a long time since we last saw them at the Worlds 2005.

The yeallow colour isn't that bad, we'll just have to stick with it as it is the sponsors colour I guess... it's better than the one they had at the Worlds 1986.

I detect a hint of racism in your post, and I would like it to be known that I am disgusted by this kind of small-minded behaviour.

Your a homophobe which is as bad

Still 10 hours for him to pull out

Let the world's greatest sporting event begin ...

See you all tomorrow, good night!

What would we do without such expert opinions as this gem from Mr Parrott on the bbc website? 11 months? September wasn't that long ago, John.

Morning all.

Today is the day!! Can't wait for 10am. One of the highlights of the year for me.

The Betfair yellow looks hideous! Actually that photo just proves how cramped the Crucible is.

I guess everyone is watching Walden - Holt this morning, right?

COME ON MARCUS CAMPBELL!!.



Hmmm,am i the only one who wants Marcus to win?!.

anything that puts a sock in jewell's mouth is ok with me

COME ON MARCUS

the problem with having the BBC Coverage starting this morning is by the Time the Programe starts at 10am and then Hazel talking Davis and Parrott analyzing and the introduction it will be closer to 10.15 by the time play starts.

Eurosport eliminates that problem.

ChinaHuang (yellow) is a common surname, but does not refer to the East Asian race as was popular in Western languages until recently. However, the Yellow Emperor was a legendary founder of China. Yellow is also identified with the "center" cardinal direction (blue-east, red-south, white-west, black-north) while China is known as Zhongguo "middle kingdom".

White (白 bai) means "plain" or "free of charge" in many common expressions and was not traditionally used to refer to Europeans or descendants, who were usually identified as "洋人" (yáng rén, "people from [across the] ocean") or some variety of "barbarians" with reddish or pinkish skin colors (e.g. Minnan ang mo, "red-haired"). Contemporary Chinese, has, however, adopted Western usage to a large extent. Black (黑 hei) is typically applied to those of African race today. However, the term "black resident" (黑户) also refers to unregistered rural migrants in cities (as in black market).

Names of ethnic minorities sometimes contain colors, not to indicate skin color, but simply for identification, possibly based on traditional clothing or geographical direction.

Red, Black, Blue/Green, White, Flowery (multicolored) Miao (Hmong)
the Bai (literally White) are a lowland people of Yunnan
Black Bone and White Bone Yi
The Qing dynasty Manchu military were divided into Eight Banners identified by color and with ethnic associations
The Five Races Under One Union theory of national unity can be visualized through an old ROC flag and a variant which emphasized Han administration while de-emphasizing the top-to-bottom hierarchy found in the original flag. Red - Han, Yellow - Manchu, Blue - Mongol, White - Hui and Black - Tibetan.

all this ronnie talk in the press or on twitter is nauseating ive never ever wanted a defending champion to loose so badly as today.

Rob Walker doing the Harlem Shake probably.
