Thinking the same.

He could win 9-0 tomorrow, like Robbo did at the European Masters.

But I dont think it will be that easy.

David Thewlis’ character in season 3 is one of the best in the whole series.

Frames won vs frames lost is the real indicator, in fairness.

You could absolutely dominate the worlds winning every match bar first round with a session to spare and lose 5x as many frames as doing the same in a Home Nations.

The film or the series?


The series. I’m up to episode 7 of the first season. And patiently waiting for season 4 to come to the UK.


Season 4 is currently running on Irish tv. It's pretty good. I've never seen the other seasons.

100%. Fabulous actor. Carrie Coon is awesome too, and without going into it too much, the robot thing is possibly my favourite sequence in the series.

If you like the esoteric storytelling of Fargo, you should watch Legion. Same showrunner.

Yep, that’s the order I’d have them in as well, although all pretty tight.

I’ve actually seen the first eight episodes or so of season 4 and it’s also very good although it ranks bottom at the moment.


So I’ve heard. But I’ll still make time for it. Must be tough recreating new stories in the shadow of the early ones.

Just because it’s at the bottom doesn’t mean I don’t think it’s very good! And I haven’t finished so who knows how I feel when I’ve seen all of it.

You’d love Legion as well. Shades of Twin Peaks with a ‘genre’ feel.

Despite having a poor season thus far, if he wins tomorrow Ronnie will have be 2nd in Home Nations prize money. Maybe even if he loses, I’m not sure.

Was looking before and unless it's not updated he's ahead of Willo and Higgins on the one year list.

He could play him in 2 big matches in the space of two days.


If Ronnie wins tomorrow, then they would play at the PC. If Jordan were to win, then I think Ronnie would play Ding...

If Ronnie wins the final he will play Jordan Brown, if he loses then he will play Ding Junhui.

Ding needs to sort his bloody ranking out. Needs to be as far away as possible from Ronnie in a big tournament right now.
