If it wasn't for Brexit, Ronnie or Selby would have won.

I'm similar. My best-ever break was 22 i.e. the last four colours. I remember it to this day. The four balls just sailed in almost as though it was a dream.

Since retiring I've taken up the game again. Gradually getting better. 34 is my highest break since my return to the game. Got plenty of mid/high 20's.

Watching those guys has given me some new things to try as well.

Well done.

Irrelevant, but I can't resist the old gag:

Patient - I need to see a doctor. I keep thinking I'm the white ball on a snooker table!

Receptionist - Sir, I'm afraid you'll have to go to the end of the cue.

 


Palace since 19 August 1972. Palace 1 (Tony Taylor) Liverpool 1 (Emlyn Hughes)

There's a snooker tournament starting in Saudi today. It has golden balls. Anyway, there seems to be about three fans in a massive hall and a few snooker guys in Saudi attire. Looks awful currently. It's on TV now if you're interested. Top ten plus two Saudi jokers.

Do they look suspiciously like any of the Qatari national team footballers?

 


Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

I hope you're not implying that they're ringers. Dennis Taylor browned up.

The golden ball is a bit distracting, which is probably the point or they'd just put it on the table if anyone got a 147. How long before someone pretends to pot it after the first red?
What other innovations could they add? Players on roller skates? A few scorpions on the table? Some bar billiards style mushrooms?

There's a huge distraction for the Saudis here - a female ref without her headscarf. Will they be able to control the crowd? The religious police probably smashing things up as we post.

Jack Lisowski must be asking why he had to get togged up.
The promotors will be happy they haven't got Bill Werbeniuk playing Alex Higgins.

He looked ridiculous didn't he? The fake tan was pushing it a bit. I'd say he was hamming it up.

I couldn't resist

No Ronnie for a while so no controversy yet. The atmosphere is awful. They're going to have to bus some stooges in for matches. I get more of an audience than this playing pool in the pub.
