Yes. This is the worst event of the year outside of the PTC's.
ITV have made an effort with their excellent coverage but this hasn't been reciprocated by the WSA.
Fully agree.
What with the best of 7s and the Ladbrokes logo visible from every angle, this tournament just feels third rate.
Don't worry, Richi Persad is entering the fray tomorrow......
John Parrott's mate.

He definitely should consider getting more conscious. Perhaps an Ecover green washing liquid patch.[/quote]
How do they know these liquids work properly if they haven't tested them on animals?[/quote]
No product is worth buying if animals haven't suffered for its production. Maximum bloodshed of innocents otherwise I ain't buying!.....................[/quote]
Rather the animals than me.[/quote]
Humans produce nothing, and costume and destroy everything. It is all about instant gratification at the cost of everything else.
A world of Smartphones and stupid people...[/quote]
I see what you're saying and yes it is a sorry state of affairs, tbh.
Ethics has been thrown out the window, and replaced with greed and instant gratification. Corporations like Burger King are at the forefront of that.
I wonder if Trump is aware of the company he so readily supports and endorses?[/quote]
Is Trump aware of anything beyond his ego? Which is getting damaged with every passing event.

I,ve just seen the results of yesterday evenings matches.
I aint surprised that Holty and Ford lost after beating Ronnie and Selby,as CHESHIRE CAT wrote,"lower ranked players playing great to beat a top player and then playing dross and getting beaten straight away in the next round".
It indeed sometimes happens and it always will,It happened to Hendry many times as well that a player played brilliant against him,out of there skins only to the collapse and play rubbish the very next round or the round after that,it,s happened to all the players,it,s part n parcel.
