Perry v Selby and MJW/Fu v Liang/Hawkins are both playing in the evening session, so if MJW wins, it'll be Selby, otherwise I think Selby'll be on TV.


So basically you'll be rooting for Fu to win, can't blame you though.

Sessions page on live scoring doesn't have the facility to say not before. It'll be roll on, roll off as it has been all tournament.

He will win this match from here.
Fu looking underconfident tonight.


Still far to early, Williams can drop his form at anytime, Fu will respond I think.

All I have heard is " That is the worst shot that he has played in his life ".

Has he had a premonition ?

Bring back Clive Everton I say.


Yeah, doesnt make silly commentary like that and isn't biased like they are.

It’s been a while since he beat me in a ranking event, he will be out to put that right.“If I am being brutally honest I think I am the reason he is still playing like this. I think when he was behind me in the world title stakes, it didn’t sit right with him."

He says thanks to him ronnie won more world titles


To add one more sentence of Higgins: “He might not say it to people, but he wouldn’t have wanted me to be ahead of him. Maybe it is all my fault he has knuckled down.


And the Rocket is saying: “These are the kinds of matches people are interested in watching because of the way we play the game.

“Two players, it is like Chelsea playing Manchester City at the moment, it doesn’t get much bigger and it is good for the fans.”

Not only pack splitting. All departments. We won't see anything like the 92 generation again. And the time with the Golden four being at their peak + players like peak -Doherty,Ebdon,Hunter,Stevens was the best time of Snooker ever.

I'm talking about now in 2014, not the 1998-2003 period.
