Mad_Cyril Embracing the retiree lifestyle G!
Loving it mate! Takes some of the shine off a bank holiday mind
gcw Selby is a undoubtedly a great player but can be an excruciating watch. Still its all about winning WCs, and I expect him to win his fifth crown in this mood. Admire how he’s spoke out openly about his depression.
alistair I had to turn that afternoon session off yesterday, it’s too much shithousery for me. I hope Allen beats him today.
Holy crap how did Brecel do that. First central European finalist, it may start to grow there too.
Funky I did not see that coming. Really hope Allen can get Selby to fuck.
C_J Selby is granite hard. Beating him over four sessions at the Crucible has to be one of the biggest tests.
alistair yeah, cruicable suits his game, he’s only 39 I could honestly see him out doing Hendry & Ronnie. He’s boring but the best all rounder in history of the game.
“That was a hard watch. You have to be honest.” (Hazel Irvine)
“Incredible. When you compare this match to the other semi-final, it’s like two different sports. They’re turning down pots that the other two wouldn’t even dream about.” (Stephen Hendry)
When even Hazel Irvine finds it boring you know that somthings up. Selby is awful.
After watching the excellent Bracel v Si game I’ve had to bin the Selby match off. It’s so dull.
Dubman same here. If Selby makes the final I prob won’t tune in.
Felt for Si Junhai ….nerves must have got to him
Funky oh yes, this is consummate snooker in the 26th frame, peppered with great pots (the pink!). Terrific break, had everything
Funky fuck me, the last few frames last night were so fucking dull - I’ve previously defended Selby, but fuck me, I wanted to kill him last night.
alistair Yeah that break was top class.
I think Hendry would have swatted Selby aside if he had been around in the 90s.
gcw Standard is way higher nowadays, Selby has already more centuries than Hendry. It’s hard to judge.
gcw Hendry is a bitter twat.
Funky standard is deffo way higher but Hendry was a robot back then.
alistair agreed but what a player. Love his commentary
gcw yeah, great player. Remember how much the fans wanted White to beat him every year. Looking back, you realise how naive Jimmy was. His tactical game was non existent
Hendry started a YouTube channel a few months ago if you haven’t checked it out already. Some good stuff on there.
alistair I vividly remember watching the 1992 final when White was 14-8 up and thinking ‘Hendry will still win this ’.
gcw bottled it didn’t he
