Long time lurker, finally registered as inspired by the recent influx of new members.
This is the place I go to for the hilarious live comments when i'm trying to follow the snooker while at work.
English ain't my native language tho.

Cheers! :wave:

Welcome newbie. I think Barry Hearn deserves some credit for the new interest in this site. All this televised snooker has kept and spread the interest in snooker both near and far.

in a way you're right; because there's so much more snooker around nowadays it's sites like these who provide the live match commentary whaen at work.
livescores on the worldsnooker site are not that much fun, and finding a working livestream is tricky behind a desk at work.

been looking at the users list: there are about 975 people registered with zero posts, meaning less than half of the island population has ever posted anything <laugh>

According to the membership card in my wallet I'm part of the Glorious Nation of Belgium.

The nation who's former king recently admitted he was planning to finally acknowledge he's the father of his bastard daughter, through a document which was to be made public after his death, after 20 odd years of denying any link between them... :-D

Well, it's almost one year since I washed up onto the shores of The Island.

Don't remember how I got here, but I'm sure glad I did!

Every time a new member joins cant help but think it's Ace or Ash with another acount lol... guess it's the effect they had on us.

To be fair, this is a year old thread.

If rekoons was Ash or Ace, that's quite the long play.
