Has this ever happened?
That hasn't, but 80s referee John Smythe was attempting to spot a difficult pink amongst th pack of reds when it squirmed out of his grasp & sent the reds scattering...

I won't try to sugarcoat it. Robertson desperately needs to decide what he wants to do when he grows up! I just can't believe what a player of his caliber is doing to his career.

Perhaps Neil could pick and choose events more.
If he really does enjoy video gaming so much, then maybe play less events and find a better balance between gaming and snooker, and when he does decide to enter an event, practice hard and commit fully to it.

Mate, are you steaming so much that prevents you to even understand the easiest of posts? I was implying that Robertson is definitely for much greater things. Those titles won't cut it when you're a player of his ability. What part you cannot understand?

I see your a Robbo fan gj.Sorry for your loss.We all have our favourites and it hurts when they lose in big games.That shows how much snooker means to us.I may not like him.But i know the feeling of defeat.

I'd obvious like ROS to lead at least 10-6 overnight, I reckon Higgins will lead 10-6, Selby Fu 4-4 and the hawk 5-3 there we have it

Just reading on twitter that this game doesn't count as a loss in a final cos there was another table in the arena so I'm pleased to announce that Jono still has a 100% winning ratio

I wouldn't count any of them out. It's possible any one of them might win again in the next 5 years. I think Bingham is least likely considering how poor his record has been apart from the year he won. Murphy is most likely to win again of the three I'd say.

Some sound advice there, IMO.
Gaming is clearly a passion of his so he shouldn't give it up completely. Just find a better balance.
When's the next FIFA coming out? Robertson could plan his season around the release dates of his favourite games.

Robbo is a class player but a bit like Trump he put way to much pressure on himself at the cruci I can't see him winning another world title

I ditched Trump a while ago.
As soon as his hair started falling out he started losing his magic powers.
They should rename him Haircut 100 though cos he only has about 100 strands of hair left now
There's only 1 Trump im a fan of these days

Low key it's fair to say smurf will never win another world title it will be 13 years since he won it next year. That would be the longest gap between title wins in the history of the worlds not a fu*king hope he will win it again
