Stevens has always had a poor recordin best of 9's so the worlds qualifier is a better judgement of his form than a short match against a no hoper who got lucky

Hendry v White or Davis
Allen v McCullogh

Yep a Hendo vs White tie would be enjoyable for all the history they have.

I'd like Davis to get thru but who would I like him to play, probably someone like Ryan Day. <ok>

Davis v Joe perry - That would give Steve a chance of winning and that would be something special

I think Davis has a chance vs Perry and vs Day.... also vs MAK. <ok>

:wave:

Robbo vs Trump - that would be a belter. <ok> :excited: <ok> :excited:

at least youd def have someone to support in round 2 tho.....

i know what you mean tho, i hate it when i have clashes between my favourite players and am faced with divided loyalties

I am seeing Higgins, Marco Fu, Perry and Carter. So I am hoping one of those players gets a Liang Wenbo, which would be good. Maybe Ken Doherty, as I've not seen him live for a while. Any big name qualifier would be good.

Similarly I am watching Ebbo - so would like to see him play either another player who I dislike (I am guaranteed to be happy with the outcome then):

Wenny
Trump

But would also like Ebbo to face off with Cope. Could be some real fireworks there. :excited:

Surely its in the best interests of the WPSBA and the BBC to get the tournament as much publicity in advance, so IMO the draw should revert back to Grandstand (or whatever its called these days :huh2: ) on a Saturday afternoon (say March 13th) to generate wider pubic interest and awareness, as well as hype the tournament up, rather than it just being anonymously drawn midweek, when the conspircacy theorists will no doubt pour scorn on some of the ties. (Murphy with an easy R1 draw anyone? ;) )
