sometimes you're far too harsh on Ronnie...

he does have an excuse for being tired... even Selby hadnt played as much as him and looked to fall asleep at the CoC.

At least he tried here, win or lose.


Hope he proves you right. Even at 3-1 he can win the match in a flash. You have to try as a pro or you're a fraud. Or just don't enter like Selby.

I know. And that's what I'm saying. I know he's tired and not 100% up for this and thats why I hope Slessor will beat him here and put him out of his misery.

My comment was meant positively.

And I think ROS will win the UK Championship.

You could tell yesterday his attitude has changed, in China and the last few weeks he’s been saying he loves snooker and travelling, then yesterday contradicts himself and says he might skip world champs and world snooker is a dictatorship,

to be fair Slessor isnt playing out of his skin... Ronnie just being very poor.


Slessor works in a casino part-time as he can't make a living from snooker. This is better than he normally plays.


How would you know? When do you ever get to watch him?


My friend plays on the amateur circuit and knows him well. Said he's a lovely fella.

Hopefully you're right. He's reached the Final ever since he won it last time in 2014. didnt enter in 2015.

Slessor wins. Hope the kid can do some damage in this tournament.

As I said the other day.

ROS needed a rest and now he's got it. time to recharge the batteries and focus on the UK Championship.

Told you 2 days ago...

big pockets level the playing field and give these players more of a chance of beating top ones.
