Wonder why they chose Belfast over Dublin.Goffs is a venue loved by a lot of players.

Staging the Northern Ireland Open in Dublin isn't very logical, is it. That's like holding the China Open in Cardiff.

Or just do Cardiff again. Done Cardiff loads of times.


Fair play snookerfan,you must have a job that allows you the time off to attend all the snooker.I find it hard to make time to even watch it at times.

Hearn would make it an extra tournament needed for the million pound prize.

I think it's going to end close tonight. Mark's had chances in most frames just wasn't able to punish Yan in the first session.

I've made the mistake of seeing my parents the day before I go to York.

My mum insisted on taking all my clothes out of my bag to "iron them properly", decdided my holdall wasn't a good enough bag, so transferred all clothes to a different holdall consequently leaving my train and snooker tickets in the original bag, along with the chocolate bars I'd purchased. Dropped my bookmark out of my book.

buck sake....

Why do we eat Chinese grub?We're English and Irish.


We don't technically. The stuff we eat in Chinese restaurants in the UK, bear no resemblance to real Chinese food.

I don't think Williams' decline in terms of ability is his key problem. Sure, that also plays a role. But the key factor with him is that he has the bottle and nerves of Matthew Stevens these days. Thats his biggest downfall.
