The buckets are truly a disgrace. They even make McManus look like as if he's in his prime.

Hi, there doesn't.
You think four minutes 42 seconds is fine for a shot? The refs want to be sure they'll be backed up if they warn the player and if there are actual times given as general guidance by WPBSA then they'll be more confident to give a warning.

I'm a bit disappointed in McManus now. He's acting like a baby in my opinion. Let's his emotions get the better of him. Did not expect that from a veteran like him.

Angles getting pissy with not being on one. Fu and Selby have had 24 frames of it!

Thankfully ES player has a no-comms stream. Can't stand listening to commentary from BBC or ES on this match, they're not even subtle about wanting Ding to lose.

I’m told John Virgo has been spoken to about today's unfortunate on-air F-bomb but will continue to commentate at the World Championship
Yet No mention taylor insulting the man with a zimmerframe , taylor really is untouchable

You should have listened Dale's commentary on Ding's match against Gould. I've never heard a commetator rooting so openly for a player.

I never realised how much muttering he does to himself when seated. Mutter, mutter, mutter.

I wonder what he mutters,maybe along the lines of,"you lucky basket","you lucky basket","you lucky basket".

I once got the hump with Taylor and accused him of bias on Twitter. He denied it.

Angles draws one back barring snookers.
From what I've seen of this match, Ding will continue to be a bit loose until Angles gets close and then switch on again.

Yeah, I don't remember him being like this before. I wonder if he's becoming a grump in his old age.

Absolutely disgusting! Whatever happened to professionalism and pride in your work. OK I understand that watching Slowby is painful, but these are supposed to be professional commentators.
