Yes, he might be on the decline. Maybe it's kicked in early.

Well he's still fourth in terms of centuries made this season, behind only Robbo, Ding and Judd.

He did apologise.

Well, I didn't hear and I heard Terry say he didn't.

He raised his hand to apologise on camera and Hallett and Studd say he did as well.

Oh well, Terry got it wrong then. I apologise to Selby for accusing him, I was misinformed.

Yes but strangely when you're watching him you always have the feeling that he struggles to pull off an one visit stuff break. I've watched Selby matches a lot over the years and the Selby of 2010 would have destroyed the Selby of today in the breakbuilding department.

I don't really care if a player doesn't apolagize for every fluke. Ok if a player never apologizes for a fluke or if the fluke wins them the match it gets on my nerves but everybody has a fluke now and then, no big deal.

I dislike players who make a big deal of kicks and act like they are always unlucky when their opponent has a fluke. Judd is like that and he has flukes all the time.

Selby 3 nil down :-D sorry but couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke :D

But I know full well things are far from over knowing Selby and even at 4 nil down I would definately give Selby a chance to win the match, his comebacks are remarkable and he'll have to do some of that here if he's to win this match.
