John Higgins 3-1 Alan McManus MSI


No fireworks,no centuries,in fact far from it.
A 68 from McManus and a 62 from Higgins,there highest breaks so far.




Higgins,playing a tiny,wee bit better than he,s done lately but only just.

It's sometimes painful to watch Williams play like this isn't it... had a very easy brown to yeallow pocket but missed... in his prime would never ever have missed that, and instead of 3 all, we now are 4-2, Fu leads, and honestly can't see Williams comeback from this if he continues like he has.

A 50 and a 51 break in frame 5 from Alan reduces the deficit.

3-2 Higgins.



It,s been donkeys years since i shot two 50+ breaks in 1 frame!,hmm,come to think of it,it,s somethin i,ve never achieved as i,ve only ever shot two 50+ breaks at all. :emb: :-D



I shot a 51 and a 63 donkeys years ago,i,ve never come near since!. :irk:

Yea it does seem like the bottom is falling off his game.

his World Championship semi of 2011 is keeping him above the drop zone at the moment but he will need to defend those points or he will be Going down by the end of the season.

is that in the evening session? evening session then is Judd v Bond and Selby v Hawkins I reckon?

I understand their decision to stream Judd's match as it attracts lots of crowd there... as for Selby.. well.. I suppose he's W.number 1 and theey choose it that way, but ideally I agree with you that I would rather watch Dott v Robbo.
