Why is he commentating? Any reason?
Well excuse me for not reading every word you type, I was at work today and unlike you that means I’m offline.

Unexpected and rather excellent Ricky on commentary
Today is going rather well!
Matthew Stevens match has just started hope he doesn’t spoil it.

Looked focused.
We shall see if this is to remain or not.

Andy Goldstein. At least he's not Murray.

Johnson.
There's not being happy, and there's admitting defeat before the match starts.

Day; "I wanted a crack at Ronnie."
That's the attitude. Not like Anthony "Oh Crap, it's Ronnie" McGill.

I guess is due to fatigue. I I know you might say Ronnie is also very tired, but I think Ronnie handles it better due to being fitter (Murphy is not exactly the skinny one
).

Worst player to kiss under the mistletoe? It's got to be Rory McLeod, surely. He has a beard.

I don't like that the Home Nation tournaments all have their own subforum, for some reason.
I prefer each tournament to have their own.

I just watched Ronnie's match. Very good performance under the circumstances!
Actually it looks like he's going for this title as well! Ronnie is playing like a man possessed recently.

I want Jimmy to win, don't like the way Akani plays.

Plus Jimmy needs the victory more.
He's at the end of his career and we might not get to see him play, so any opportunity is nice

Jimmy has mentioned a few times in recent years that he still believes that he can win the WC.
What do u guys think, does he really believe it or he's only saying that to justify why he's still playing (or for any other reason).
IMO he doesn't stand a chance of ever doing that and I also think that deep down he knows it and has learnt to live with it.

Wouldn't surprise me if he won a 4th title in the space of 2 months. Foulds mentioned today it's already a record Ronnie having won almost 500 000 grand in prize money when we're still not half way through the season.
And you know what... he could face Higgins again in the Quarters, just like last year when Higgins beat him 5-2. Since then Ronnie owns him.

You're beginning to get as positive about his chances as me.

He says that because he still loves playing. He already won the World Seniors title, an thats as close as he'll ever get to have World Champion under his name.

Yes, at the moment Ronnie doesn't look like he needs to rest. Make hay while the sun shines! Go for it Ronnie!

Stevens going for yet another loss?
Could he actually drop off the tour?
