Day Posted September 24, 2022 Author Share Posted September 24, 2022 Was alright to be fair, although I wanted to see more tactical conversations and banter, like Trump putting his nuts on the pocket trying to put Ronnie off with a pint in his hand. Proper snooker doubles then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O'Sullivan/Evans v Trump/On Yee Doubles and mixed doubles had tournaments back in the 80s and early 90s, then they disappeared. Brought it back to drum up some interesting presume.

Malagaram Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Latest snooker ,the World cup finals,interupted last night by two loonies,one jumped on the table and emptied a bag of orange powder on the table,creating havoc,the other,a woman 35 years old jumped on the table and tried to glue herself to the table. Similar to the protesters who tried to stop the Grand National on Saturday,these 2 had t shirts with a motive of Stop Oil,what are they protesting about. Think that there is going to have to be a lot more security at sporting events,they have already tried to interupt football matches by gluing themselves to the goal posts before.What is happening to Sunaks threat that he will crack down on these dissidents,they should have prison sentences and have all there benefits stopped if the cant abide with uk laws Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell her to turn the lights off when she's freed herself I like a bit of snooker. Can't sit through the length of these matches though. I thought when I was a kid the early rounds were 13 or 15 frames or something. Some players are unwatchable unless you're a hardcore fan of the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a ongoing dispute in a village in Lincolnshire re the traffic being caused through the village,up to 100 vehicles a day,where there are "nodding donkeys being used to extract oil",but after watching look north last night it would seem that dispute was overturned by the goverment. But we need oil more than ever now after the russian/ukraine conflict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alph Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Murphy out and can't really complain. I'm guessing there's no point in a snooker thread? Not very popular is it? It's good to see all these Chinese players coming through. Gives more credibility to the use of the word "World" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really a sport suited to us 9-5ers if we want to watch it live, is it? Also how many of us have access to a full size snooker table? I haven't seen one in person since I was about 13, in the attic of Westwood Nursing Home in Mickleover when my dad was doing some decorating during the school holidays. I'd love to watch snooker if I was rich, retired and lived in a mansion with a dedicated snooker room but it's hard to be enthralled by something I have no opportunity to play myself. Bit like golf, can't really see the point. Edited April 21, 2023 by Kokosnuss Alph 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
