Could be quite a funny morning, Walden v Holt might not last long, the board goes up and there is nobody watching from the other side, they all think forget this, bugger off around Sheffield for three hours downing beers.

Quite a few of us from here going tomorrow including myself, this will be my 5th year now, 5 years ago the first match I saw involved Higgins, 5 years later I am seeing him again. Hopefully Davis turns up, his performance was one of the stand outs of the qualifying round.

Not the player I really wanted to see, but could of turn out much worse, especially if he drew Ebdon or McManus.

Ive good vibes that THE FORCE is going to make a big impact this year, starting with revenge on Dott for easily beating him in round 1 3 years ago

Pretty damning appraisal of the state of snooker really.

and a load of bullocks snooker is not reliant on Ronnie if Hendry made a comeback after a period out in the 1990 people will want to see it and interested in it same with Selby, Ding etc today its just human nature.


if Ronnie decides ive had enough im going to be a full time farmer snooker will be fine sports fans are fickle to say the least even a extrem Ronnie fan like jewell didn't shut up on subject snooker all the time he was out although it would be better if he did.
