I just saw the end of it. Not one man nor his dog in the crowd. Surely World snooker should do something about that? Isn't giving away the tickets better than rows of empties?

Bingham got the second 147 of the tournament? Costing Ronnie money.

Lisowski is a class act. He'll make the breakthrough. Once he wins one he'll be in the top 6 soon after. Major scorer.

I want to see him become a top 5 player

China don't care. It's all about the massive TV revenues.

Johnson just said that Robertson won from 4-1 down.

Have you seen the Selby match?


No. Couldn't be fussed.

Yep, it's down to Mark now

Is it me or are all the Ronnie fans sulking?

I'm actually glad Ronnie's out. He should be home preparing for the Worlds.

Joe Perry has bought a home in the abyss after losing to Gary Wilson again. He really wanted to get one over the 'Geordie' cab driver, but failed as he found himself in 'Shredsville' late in the match.

Absolutely! The earliest he got knocked out the better.

Surely it is better to be going far in tournaments and building momentum & confidence??


Exactly. There is a 2 week gap before The Crucible. How long does it take to recover from hitting a few balls around?

Some fans have no confidence in his ability to win, it seems.

My honest opinion is: Ronnie lost because he wanted to. That's what it seemed like to me but I was a bit affraid to state that opinion here. But that's what it looked like to me.

Ronnie had a couple of very good chances to make a 147 in recent times but he did not even think about going for them. This time he did. Why? Maybe he wanted to go home and decided to take some money as well.

He'll be super fresh for The Crucible. <ok>

Smart move from Selbo. He's giving everyone a false lead in a way.

Every lead is a false lead.
