QPStu Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 Aye, even his co-commentator was lightly taking the piss out of him about it. It's probably time to hang up your microphone when you're getting out-bantered by Willie Thorne. Quick question ... hark back to the days of Big Break. Did Ronnie O'Sullivan ever make an appearance? If he did, you'd be thinking "you dancer". Whereas if Peter Ebdon turned out to be your mystery snooker player, you'd probably just say "ah f**k it. Just let me do JV's trick shot the now to be done with it". Come to think of it I don't ever remember O'Sullivan on it. Terry Griffiths used to appear which must have been torture. 40 seconds to pot as many reds as you can and he'd be standing chalking his cue, checking angles, going for a shot then standing up again. Most of the players played in the spirit intended though. It used to be fun watching someone like Willie Thorne sprinting round the table for a pot with 5 seconds left on the clock. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiGi Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Selby and Fu clugging their way to the longest ever frame at the crucible. Eye-bleedingly bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiGi Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Over an hour now, I quite like frames like this BBC is about 20 minutes behind, not sure why. Frame's over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fotbawmad Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 The McManus, Ding match trumps the Hawkins O'Sullivan match in terms of overall standard IMO. I must admit this Worlds has got me questioning if there is really that much difference between the top players anymore. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meanmistermustard Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 (edited) Swearing in the commentary box off mic during the longest frame. Hopefully there are a number of complaints and Virgo and Thorne have to be sacked. Edited April 30, 2016 by meanmistermustard 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 If I was playing at this level and a phone went off in the crowd as I was down for a shot I'd be up into the seats to beat them to death with my cue. What c***s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I think everyone would agree that was quite fair. Enjoying this game, hope it goes the distance with Fu winning on the final black. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 (edited) I was going to make a post earlier of something like "this is such high quality snooker" but thought naw as it was so pish But It really is Edited April 30, 2016 by Miguel Sanchez 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Whoever wins this frame between Selby and Fu wins the match. Surely. (Obviously if Selby wins it, but still) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bully Wee Villa Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 (edited) Love the tactical frames. Okay you wouldn't want it every frame or the match would last longer than an Aston Villa losing streak, but when it's the last few frames much prefer this to someone knocking in back to back centuries to win in ten minutes.

peasy23 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 They had a frame in the morning session that lasted nigh on 90 minutes. It's been a terrific match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
