mcgill is a scrapper but maguire is a class apart if he is up for it
|
By:
Maguire out of sorts, temper fraying and its only the 4th frame. McGill wins i think
|
By:
Favourite gets turned over more often when they are practice partners. Like Judds record against Lisowski 1 win from 4, against Milkins 2 from 8, against Norman 1 from 3, Players you would expect Judd to hold winning records against.
Mike Wasley has played Milkins hundreds of times and knocked out Milkins in the final qualifying match last season. |
By:
Its an interesting angle I have to say, not one much notice is taken of. Are Maguire and McGill practice buddies too? Have to say its a bit early for Mags to spitting the dummy out, very poor showing in the opening session for whatever reason.
|
By:
yes they practice together
|
By:
Would be a good angle for a discursive article if sportswriters actually bothered to write about snooker anymore. I remember reading a piece where Steve Davis was struggling for decent practice partners at one time, but then Ken Doherty turned up in east london and was always willing to take him on.
I assume players would have several regular practice partners, would get tiresome playing the same guy over and over? |
By:
time to back maguire if he goes 4-1 down
|
By:
McGill and Milkens playing at the same time. One enjoys playing infront of a big crowd at a big venue while the other is a head shaker and a bag of nerves. Same thing happened to Milkens in the masters.
|
By:
For a player with the nickname the milkman he aint got much bottle.
|
By:
maguire made s rigt pigs ear of this last frame
|
By:
what a total giveaway...jeez
|
By:
he really is an orrible scrote that mcguirelong may he continue
|
By:
Thought he played the right shot to play a snooker off the last red. Just very unlucky. If he plays dead weight to get out of the snooker he was in himself he gives McGill the chance to play another very hard to get out of snooker. Done nothing wrong. Just dead unlucky.
|
By:
why hit the ball so hard when trying to get out of the snooker?? if he hits it slow he cant leave a free ball...and why try the stupid double on the black??
|
By:
Looked a very dodgy free ball the ref called.
|
By:
it did yeah but he should never have it it so hard where the balls were, was crying out to be a free ball unless he hit it slow, i still think he will win the match mind
|
By:
if he hits it slow he is going to be wrapped up in another snooker and a very tough one at that.
|
By:
talking about the free ball..i thought the rule had changed?? i thought they only had to be able to hit the ball full on not both sides??
|
By:
I actually thought McGill was going to turn down the free ball because he didn't even seem sure it was and they are practise partners after all.
|
By:
well he could definitely hit it full on just not the extreme left hand side of the ball..so i had the rules wrong, i thought they had changed them
|
By:
There was only one snooker required, if he had played it softer and missed, he'd prob have left the red on.
|
By:
The "full on" might be just for the miss rule?
|
By:
quite heavily commited on McGill,however fearing a McGuire fightback,he can`t possibly play as bad as yesterday I`ll wait to see how the first frame goes
|
By:
Fierce likeable lad McGill, and exagerated even more by Maguires sour puss. Think McGill will hold on, Milkins could settle better tho tonight and make the other game interesting
|
By:
Fantastic gift from Mags for that frame.
|
By:
And doesn't clear the blue on the break off shot of the next frame.
|
By:
keep it up McGuire
|
By:
muguire is one player u dont want to be on if he goes behind, just gives up, hes barely trying here
|
By:
Truly desperate stuff.
|
By:
7/1 Maguire will be 9/4 if he wins the next frame..
|
By:
im`e out on McGill and have put a small bet on the scruffy Glaswegian,if he wins the next frame McGill might start tieing up
|
By:
Stick with mcgill he's home and dry, Maguires head is gone
|
By:
Mags looks embarrassed. So he should.
|
By:
Signs were ominous from maguire in the opening session, shambles of a performance. That said, fancy this lad to give Selby a right game, maybe even win it.
|
By:
Maguire will win this now
|

Damn no edit function on this site....wish i could erase that last post!
