Clubs are dying on their bottom here too. Would be a good life to run one wouldn't it.
The last one here in Lucan,West Dublin was a great place to play.
12 full snookwr tables and about 6 smaller tables and pool tables. The owner took no messing, he even barred wearing a peaked hat in the club. No drinking, no acting the maggot. Just a real chilled snooker hall for lads and girls who enjoyed the game. Pity the owner sold it and moved on. It turned into a bookies first and now i'm not sure what it is.
If i owned that place it would be a bit of a dream job.

Apparently Ding won this in 2014.
Why have I no memory of that?

Judd Trump versus Ding Junhui; feigned confidence versus genuine modesty.

Selby’s clearance to make it 3-2 was sublime. Worth checking out.

The layout makes for patchy viewing, if I'm honest.

That might be useful. Saves you having to do it yourself.
