Dotty 6-3.

His seaso has been a good one, but even if it wasnt you can always count he'll have a good Crucible performance in him. He just loves it playing out there, fair play to him.

Ditto. Maybe it was just timing but when Neil was emphatic that there was no way back for Mark during the interval, the Zoolander-esque host scratched his head maybe like he shouldn't that emphatic lest viewers tune out or something like that. Jimmy gave some soft answer about him possibly fighting back that sounded like he was throwing him a bone.

Shame about the Facebook coverage, mate. World Snooker couldn't organize a piss-up in a brewery. They can be shockingly bad, at times.

Glad you were still able to watch, though.

Ya...and excited about 16 more days! This is my 4th year following and each year I need new ways to view it!


How do you enjoy the BBC coverage?

I do absolutely love Hazel...I think my missus is jealous.

I think Selby's best is behind him. I doubt he'll win many more tournaments in his career. I think he's burned out. He reminds me of Steve Davis circa 1990-91 when Hendry took over. Davis was never the same player and Selby looks a shadow of his 2017 persona. It's strange to see him ranked number one given how little he's won this year. I'd prefer the ranking system reverted back to the old format based on ranking points. I don't like the prize money ranking system.

He does look a little jaded but i fancy him to win many more triple crowns before he's done. He aint going nowhere.

pmsl You're such a fool.
