He's a very good referee though, and I'm very happy WS over the past 2 or 3 years is "using" these young European refs, they do a brilliant job.

Not that it's any of our business or makes any difference, but I've heard strong rumours that he's gay.

As I said though, it doesn't matter much.

This and Mags performance best displays of tournament so far.

Ronnie will face Milkins next, I knew White would feel tired after all the travelling and all that.

Was late getting in and only caught the final frame but heard about Judd's 140, what happened? Please don't tell me he missed the final black on a maximum

Easy match for Ronnie then :-)


In these short formats anything can happen, and Ronnie since German Masters hasn't been in a good place mentally, a defeat here, even against Milkins, wouldn't surprise me much.

True, Ronnie lost to players he usually owns lately. I still expect Ronnie to win this one though.

Agaianst a real top player he would have lost 4-0 the way he played today. Similar to his Coc performance this season in fact.

Yes, Ronnie must have more "personal" problems, he seems very grumpy at the moment. :mood:
