No...
We must be able to do better than that.
Go on then
Rick Flair (if he continues going grey at the current rate).
Ric.

If this was a tennis match, it would be like Andre Agassi vs Pete Sampras.

Selby’s nowhere near flashy (or dirty) enough to be Flair.

My controversial opinion.
That McGill vs Wilson semi was a more dramatic finish than Ronnie vs Selby.

I’d say that’s pretty accurate.
If the match had a bigger story (i.e. bigger players or a rivalry) it would definitely be the better match.

I wouldn't be surprised if this ends up being like the English Open final from last season.

Selby goes back to his evil, dark arts inspired style of play by making a century.

Neither Bingham nor Murphy is a mental midget.
Seriously, some of the rubbish that comes out on this forum sometimes.

Because people think it's a better final if a player they like wins.

The Amazon adverts.
We love working for a company that pays sod all taxes, and leaves parcels in precarious places by their front door without using common sense.

For a ROS fan, a good final is a final where Selby loses.

The fact alone that Selby never beat Trump in a big match would have made the match up very interesting.

You’re referring to a Triple Crown winner and a World and Masters winner. I’m mot a fan of either, in fact I hate Murphy (sorry Wild) but they’re far from mental midgets.

I am, but not the sort of fan who cries when he sees Selby doing well, or assumes he’ll lose if he doesn’t win every frame, or thinks it’s the end of the world if he loses a match.
And these days I’d say I’m more invested in MJW and Ding doing well than Ronnie, especially after the WC.
