Jimmy should never have been given another tour card. Don't like those free ride cards, but if they're handing them out at least give them to a player with a chance of doing something.


Mark Allen was firmly against it.

Don't get fooled by a good start from Robbo, we all know how this has ended many times.

But better to start well than bad, I guess.

Not so sure about Selby, has a tough draw in his quarter.


The only one I can see troubling him is Higgins. Williams hasn't done much lately, and Allen has a poor record at the World Championship.

Robbo v Ronnie Final, that's my ideal one. <ok>

Well, he's won the first three frames of the seventy one that he needs to be champion.

Easy for him

Williams has won a ranker and has been playing some good stuff since the turn of the year.

Yeah but it was only the Pro Series, which arguably should not be counted as a ranking event. It would be nice to be proved wrong, but I don't see Williams as a threat to Higgins or Selby right now.

Nah, thought I'd wait until I knew it was safe. Might consider where the English Open is this year. If not Bolton or York.

Just depends on the state of the pandemic. Don't fancy all this taking tests and wearing masks either.
