Rory McLeod! rofl rofl rofl He didn't shake Maike Kesseler's hand last year, I think his culture forbids him to shake hands with women. <doh>

Indeed, I forgot about Rory...

Rockettim - it was a place called Rustico.


I don’t have cheese on my pizza too

Good shout - I only discovered cheeseless pizzas a couple of weeks ago, bu they are surprisingly good.

I hope Ronnie wins Tim

It's not his culture at all.

I've seen matches from the 80s and 90s on YT many times and when taylor was commentating he was pretty good back then. At least that's what I think.

Maybe it was around the 2000s when he started going with the usual drivel.

I was wondering spmething somilar to this earlier - will we be sick of Angles' commentary in 10 years time?

However I honestly think age plays a part in Dennis and Virgo's poor commentary.

Also the earpieces - they play up to the crowd and are too eager to throw in their "catch phrases".

Don't be a bigot.

So it is not bigoted to refuse to shake hands based on someone's gender? Do me a favour.

Partot and Dennis do that too.

It's so annoying.

Who are you to say whose hands he should or should not shake?

You are a bigot and a racist for attacking another man's culture and way of life.

Good night to you too. :hatoff:

Cloud.

Regarding you calling me a racist earlier, that was low. You know nothing about me.

Rory's choice is not based on his race. He has the right to hold that belief, but I have the right to hold mine which is that it is wrong not to shake somebody's hand because they are female. You must (by implication) believe that I am wrong to challenge his belief. By extension it would have been wrong to challenge shopkeepers or publicans who refuse to serve people based on race or gender. In short (ish), your argument is wrong.

I don't really know why I am bothering replying, but it does not feel great to be called racist. The type of person that does that on Twitter- ironically - you were complaining about recently. Hope you feel good about it.

This is why Cloud's reaction surprised me as well.

Calling somebody a racist because he doesn't approve of certain Islamic rules is bull. I think BSP deserves an apology.

Carter will be up for this. I can see him winning 13-11


Wrong about the score but I was correct in predicting Carter would win. I just had a gut feeling. Ronnie just acts like he doesn't want to be there.

So whats on the snooker menu today,



The remainder of the Trump/Walden match.


I think Trump will beat Walden,i don,t think he,ll win this years Worlds though,he does,nt look to be in good enough form to be able to go on and win it.






Ding/Ants,


Congrats to Ding in Campbelling Ants,he did,nt quite Chartlon him,but Campbelling someone is also an incredible thing to be able to do. :hatoff: :clap: :-D







MJW/Milkins.



I thought before the match started that Milkins would,nt stand a chance against MJW,he,s done very well to have gotten so far,but MJW will stop Milkins good run.
