100 in a day is not too hard if there is a tourney on, like today....... I think it would be good to see you into the 1000+ bracket of posters. rofl :cracker: :redneck:

you will be able to position yourself so that you can view 3 matches at the same time. So really it is dependant on who is on which adjoining tables. Ideally you want Stevens, Davis and Wenbo on 3 adjoining tables 'cos watching Dire and Fergal can be a bit torturous. <ok>

Whatever - I think you will enjoy it, and I wish more snooker fans took the chance to go to EISS. <ok>

Well me and my wife was in sheffield today so we took a chance to pull up at EISS. its a real nice place.
we went up to 2 World snooker stewards and told them that we're comming on sunday but could we have a sneak peak so we know what to expect. its lovely, they are playing in the badminton courts and the spectator seats love comfy. the stewards told me that sunday is fully booked so im glad i prebooked.

I saw Alan mcmanus walking about and i saw robert milkins rolling a roll-up.

I cant wait till sunday

Also saw a bloke walking around aimlessly and he looked very much like seifer?

You never been to a live event before? There are a couple of hammers, but most of the players are top guys and will pose for photos and sign autographs willingly.

Player's Entrance at The Crucible. The best part of being a snooker fan. <ok>
