What are the commentators talking about? They are making out that Maguire is practically disabled.
Maybe it's a neck rash problem.

It doesn't require much to install even a webcam above the tables and Barry is missing a huge trick here imo. World Snooker could have a dedicated page with most if not all the tables being streamed no problem at all.
That would give these flat structures more of a complete feeling, the public feels more invested in the tournament and players as they can keep up with what's going on and WS could run ads on every stream page. Win/win.
What he said. How about we write to World Snooker and suggest this? I'll do it. I've actually have some good chats with them on email following trips to the Crucible and the Masters.

Young Joel Walker beats Mavis in a decider. Good win for him.
Has the winner of Ford Wattana next.

Looks like another Baird bottle job against a top player in Wales.

Hey thanks, it seems a few of us think it's a good idea so it would be good to see what WS thinks, I can e-mail them it's no problem.
Back to Baird though, that's a few times now already this tournament the under-dog has been within a whisker of going through only to bottle it at the end.

Burns has got a bald patch.
Glad it's not just me.

Did Ian Burns give Willie Thorne a dodgy horse racing tip? Willie has done nothing but tourist him off.

Matthew Stevens has been complaining about the cue ball being too light.

Yes, BBC 2 Wales is the one variation it doesn't have. But you can watch it on BBC via the red button, which is what I'm doing.

You aren't missing anything. This may be the most boring snooker match I've ever watched.

Typical. I watch a tedious frame, decide to make lunch and it picks up when I leave.
Probably be marmite again now that I've come back.
