I got my dad a ticket for his birthday and going along for a full day's play. Never been to a snooker event in my life and I'm really looking forward to it. I went several years ago, it was one of the first days and pretty quiet, but I really enjoyed it. Saw a few top players on the TV table (incl Higgins who was brilliant live). Hope you and your old man enjoy it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trackdaybob Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Selby playing really well tonight so far. This is only ending one way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 Hey look Ronald's having a whinge again Ronnie O'Sullivan beats Robert Milkins 6-5 to reach UK Championship quarter-finals - BBC Sport "I had to grind out another win for my sins. It's a crazy game, it still torments me after 30 years," O'Sullivan told BBC Sport. "I thought he deserved to win. I couldn't feel anything, I was just all over the show. I haven't got a clue any more, I don't understand how this game works. "I gave up a long time ago, I just keep turning up and stinking out gaffs. I stunk it out today and I'll probably stink it out tomorrow." "Mentally it's hard for me. I'm not going to kill myself out there, but I still want to play," added O'Sullivan, who has never lost to Milkins in a ranking tournament. "I just can't be bothered any more. I just don't want it bad enough, that's the problem. "I'm having to dig deep, whereas when I was younger I didn't have to did deep and I was so hungry. "Now I don't really care any more. Competitive sport is really hard, it's not always about how good you are, it's about how much you want it." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
printer Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 Watching the snooker on BBC this week, last few years I always watched Eurosport, but I've let my sub lapse. Why do the commentators feel they need to explain every fucking shot ? We can see what the shot is, what the options are etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trackdaybob Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Ding's cue delivery has a really annoying pause. I don't like it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murphy said he has "the yips" in his last match so I don't think it's deliberate. He's done well to get this far, considering. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some frame that between Williams and Ding. 4-4, could be a late night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David W Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Not seen many frames end 101-94 before. Mainly as it hasn't ever happened. I love watching weird records happening live. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Glad we are getting a decider, enjoying this. Want Ding to win so he will lose as the player I want to win has lost every deciding frame this tournament. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trackdaybob Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Looking forward to this afternoons semi final. No bothered in the slightest about dull dishwater ding v Trump. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 On the contrary I'm looking forward to that. All week O'Sullivan has been nowhere near his best but keeps winning as his opponents don't seem to believe they can beat him. I'd have done better with some of the shots in this frame, and I'm basically shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trackdaybob Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 It's disappointing. Vafaei has been great all week. Started ok but after the interval there was only going to be one winner. My money is on Trump tonight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Trump will be heavy favourite I'd imagine. Ding can beat anyone on his day but "his day" doesn't seem to happen very often in recent seasons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
