Players have to sign a players contract and if they dont agree with something they cant do anything about it, which is plain silly really.

Well, isn't that just like everybody else? You think anybody here can just get away with doing whatever they want at work? Is Ronnie the only person who has to follow rules in their professional environment?


(Says me, who is posting about snooker at work.)

Are you a huge selling factor, the most glorious employee at your work? Without whom, the company would make less money and less people would know about your company? No. So it's a bit different....

What happened?

blue and pink lied close to each other and pink blocked the way for the blue into the left middle. So he tried to play the blue to the right middle but snookered himself behind the pink (after potting the brown).

Just seen it on Twitter. Ouchhhhhhhhhhhh. The Gentleman Nearly Man...

Is the site down again?!?

SI? Nope working fine for me on multiple devices

Perry stole the second frame while he needed a snooker. It may help to settle himself after the lost maximum chance.

Oh phew it's back

I like Belfast. You can be whoever or whatever you want to be in Belfast. Except Catholic.

You a Protestant, Pinkball?

If you don't mind me asking. Just curious.

Don't believe. But still Catholic, obviously.

Big deal these things over there, aint it? That and drinking heavily.

Nah, not really any more, except in the North. But even there things have picked up, thank Heavens.

Do you know who it is?

In Ronnie's masterclass about how to break, he omits to mention that you play it with right-hand side. kinda fundamental?

McLeod 1-2 Duffy

Jimmy's White Lies - new feature. Lolz for dayzzzz

Yeah they're all pretty terrible - they don't tell you anything you'd need to know as a beginner.

The double one, people surely are more interested in how you aim them than how firm to hit them?

Decider between Xintong and Jimmy Robbo.

Or left, depending on which side of the pack you hit, but it's usually the right-hand side.

Peggy Lee: Jet lag!

Also, Ronnie is Number 1 this season so far. Has won the most cash

Haha I know! 'Hit the white in the middle' - thanks for that Ronnie!

I bet he does say more of the good stuff, but it's lost in the edit... he needs to be in the edit suite making sure the important bits go in.

Re-rack in the first frame of Allen / Tiang.

Xintong's already made a 61 but not won the frame yet.

I do think that Ronnie is disrespectful to other players. No need to sanction him but he comes across as a sausage (to me).
That stuff he said about the family asking for autographs the other day was nasty as it is fairly easy to work out who it was aimed at and would have been hurtful to the player and his family. If he had an issue with the request, just speak to them in a polite manner - do not try to humiliate them on telly.

Nobody has as much class on the table; it is a shame he cannot maintain dignity away from it.

Second re-rack??

Pink and black safe. Horrid table.

Down to the black in Xintong - Robertson

Jimmy wins

Twitch of all twitches for Robertson on a black off the spot but takes it on the second go
