Aye,braw stuff fae John,even beats the in form Perry.

Thats the things with Higgins,he,s has a similar aura,Hendry,Ronnie had/has,the name HIGGINS alone adds to pressure,thats a big reason he wins many matches even when he,s played bad,(by his standards).
All of his opponents know that he,s capable of anything,very similar to how Hendry and Ronnie was/is.

Even being eg,4-1 up against him in a best of 9 or 6-2 in front of him at the worlds,all the players know full well that if there,s a player than can comeback,suddenly start playing brilliant snooker,suddenly goes from 2nd to 6th gear,then it,s John Higgins.


The amount of times he,s won when looked dead n buried,started to play top snooker after playin drivvel is incredible.



:clap: Great stuff John!. :clap:

I'm afraid this seems to happen all the time.

Countless times they've shown hours and hours during the week and when it gets to the final, they kick it off onto Eurosport player!

Australia's 9 hours ahead though isn't it? So even the evening sessions will start at ten, and the rest of it is too early to show.

Rotterdam's only an hour ahead, which'll barely make a difference.

Yeah hope he gets his revenge on Milkins, though I'd like to see Robert in the final, but I'm afraid Robbo is the only one who can stop Higgins from winning this.

Very dull match so far. Robbo dragging Milky down to his level - the first frame lasted 50 minutes with Robbo apparently determined not to play proper snooker. He obviously knows Milky is the more fluent player so has decided the only way to defeat him is to slow the game down.
