Gentlemanjohn,
This morning I awoke to find myself covered by a duvet lying on the floor of my den. My wife tells me I was found just after midnight by my son who thought the worst. My wife thought I was just drunk but guessed it was more snooker related when the still going tv was trying to come to terms with its biggest ever shock. 15 hours later and it is no less shocking. I am stunned, and may I add skint, which for me is the complete opposite to utopia. With regards to the deserving getting it in the neck they may well find that below the belt will be more my target in the coming days. ![]() Well done to the dentist but the rest is unprintable. |

Moondan, surely this is the only 2 weeks of the year that such behaviour is not just acceptable but not even aberrational. I felt a huge void earlier when it was around 9.50 and it suddenly dawned on me that there was no morning session and i'd have to go cold turkey until 1pm!
I wasnt aware you were balls deep in judd, in a manner of speaking. Its probably the biggest shock since Tony Knowles took the nugget out, and not even comparable from a 4-0 leading position. Wilson might yet save you from the poor house but I think there'll be a twist or two in that tale before the next coupld of days are out. Maybe wishful thinking on my part though ![]() |

Gentlemenjohn,
I think you could be right although silly to put too much faith in a Journeyman even if he has been crowned. Wilson certainly does not look like a player worthy of wearing the crown and looks another of my losing bets ![]() The more I see of this game the more I wonder where the tough guys went, seems nothing remotely in the class of 92 or Hendry. The four I settled on was Trump, Wilson, Maguire,and Robertson, with 3/4s of my stake on Trump and sadly just a fiver on Maguire at 95s. Still, apart from having to listen to Davis and his Parrot I am still enjoying most matches. |

so you settled on a showpony, an inexperienced youngster, a table puncher and a computer games addict?

Jeez moondan, its bad enough to lose 3/4s of your betting bank but then to have all these young tyros snapping at your heels. The wise one is c0ck of the hoop after his short odds lay of the trumpster. I think there might be a new sheriff in town!!
Still that fiver on mags was a canny bet, i wouldnt trust the old table thumper one bit but would still love to be holding a bet at 95s or upwards. Wilson looks like a guy who can play in snatches, doubt he can win but on right side of the draw at least. I dont know when we'll see another generation come through like the 90s, that was a golden generation really - higgins, o'sullivan, williams, doherty, mcmanus, ebdon, stevens, hunter, loads more and hendry and davis still kicking around to test them. Dont know about the chinese, but the kids emerging now arent learning the game the same way, they can pot all day long but lack the all round skills required when they get on tour and learn what real pressure is. Its no wonder the over 40s have been having the time of their lives! |
