Is that a diss to Brighton, or the Snooker Legends in general? They are actually good events. Andy Goldstein aside.

You're missing out, these are very entertaining nights. I went last year, and am going to one in a few weeks. If you're a fan of snooker, it's criminal missing this, in my opinion.
gallantrabbit wrote:You criticise easily Smart. Of course if you want top top class snooker guaranteed you go to a ranking event, but you're going to be entertained for sure, and see some decent snooker always and some terrific snooker other times. Jimmy hit a 147 the other night, then missed pink for his second on the spin Parrott has had a number of tons too and even fellows like Taylor and Thorburn might not be at the top of their game, but have been there and done it and I wouldn't play the for a hundred nicker, not any day, not ever.
To be honest I'd rather see this sort of event than a contrived World Seniors...The guys have got this travelling roadshow nicely organised and have had some decent turnouts.
Good luck to them is what I say.
Anyone got a light?

Gallant - nice words from Brazil, tough talking bull, good on ya
Anything with Virgo/Taylor and a host of past it pro's is defo no-go for anyone with half a brain.
Tables have relaxed pockets, tired jokes are rolled out.
Then you have to look at the likes of Parrot Taylor Virgo
Pass me the sick bag - its a pile of marmite for people with half a brain.
Pass me some petrol and some matches.
ps Are legends doing a leg in brazil.
pps I hear that Eugene Hughes has been signed up for the Legends 2012.
pps Cliff Wilson was unavailable.

By the way, Smart said you'd only got half a brain if you go to these events. I'm not trying to start trouble.

I dislike Parrot, Taylor, Virgo to the extent that I will not line their pockets. I do not like non-competitive marmite full stop and this is nowt more than Big Break Mk 2. As you can gather I thought Big Break was a pile of marmite too. Have a nice time mate.
