Hey guys - I hate to see and hear people falling out when we should all be united in our love of the game. We have a lot in common, and should take pleasure in enjoying that. You are both great posters, and I hope I have gone some way to smoothing things over. Snucar - is it because Pinkball is Irish?

Up until his 2011 Masters title, Ding used to perform very well on UK soil, but since then his best results have come in China.

When he plays in the UK Ding only seems to be motivated at the World Champs now. Can't say I blame him, but still for a player of his class his UK tournaments have been very very poor.

Some of the best stuff I've seen him play.

And his Riga Masters title has given him confidence when the pressure is put on him in recent matches. he used to bottle matches like this, but recently he won 3 consecutive deciders at the UK and in this match made some cracking clearances.

The Day of old would bottle this match and one of those deciders.

your right all tournaments are presurised and for Ding playing in china thats more pressure than any british player has ever felt.

Robbo said that the UK tournaments have a big crowd 'every time'. Sadly, that's demonstrably not true.

For the Record Pink Ball reported himself regarding the incident between snucar and him regarding Racism Coments.

He believed he went over the top with his coments towards snucar and has taken full responsibility for that which i aplaud.

ive made the decition based on the fact that hes owned up and taken responsability to just issue him with a warning.

i think we all agree snooker gets our pulses racing and at times it gets heated and you regret it as soon as you have said it i know i have.

so let the matter drop and enjoy the snooker.

Anyway -- back to the snooker.


You sure can change from a hammer to a decent fellow in a millisecond, can't you?

At least 50% of that is true of me.

No. I was trying to make a joke that everybody thought I was a hammer.

Didn't work, obviously.
