Scottish players in general aren't to be messed with apart from Maguire, his record is appalling.

LOL @ Ding forgetting he was on a 147.
― xyzzzz__, Tuesday, 21 April 2015 19:33 (nine years ago) link
Stevens has just annihilated Williams 10-2.
Can't wait for the match w/Ronnie.
― xyzzzz__, Wednesday, 22 April 2015 14:35 (nine years ago) link
saw some of mcgill earlier, serious serious player
carrington too but maybe a little less so

Ding started badly in both of his first two matches. as turned one around and now another, except this is against Higgins. One away.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 25 April 2015 10:43 (nine years ago) link
Higgins just holding on here
― Keith Moom (Neil S), Saturday, 25 April 2015 11:06 (nine years ago) link
wtf @ this frame. Ding had the match at his mercy then a bad contact. Higgins wins on the last black - still 12-9 down.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 25 April 2015 11:07 (nine years ago) link
ok Ding has missed a fkn sitter...

one more chance Ding - keeping nerves steady time, talking about myself here
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 25 April 2015 11:13 (nine years ago) link
ok that was good torture on sat morning.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 25 April 2015 11:35 (nine years ago) link
classic stuff on sat night from both ronnie and stevens.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 25 April 2015 19:10 (nine years ago) link
2-0 down, now 3-2 up - great response by Ronnie.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 25 April 2015 19:51 (nine years ago) link
mcgill - murphy is a classic in the making

Should've been done years ago. tick.jpg
Saw highlights only - Bingham was excellent. Ronnie looked totally under the cosh.
Anyone but Trump. Would've fancied Robertson to beat him but he's out after a tight match last night.

Hawkins scores really well for someone who runs out of position every three shots.

loving that facebook page.
the other day there were a bunch of fans in the audience wearing t-shirts with a caricature, and the phrase itself.

Anyone but Trump
ahh .. my young'un is a fan of trump (he is a local lad - relatively), so, he is rather excited at the moment ..
― mark e, Thursday, 30 April 2015 13:15 (nine years ago) link
Bingham at this now - just went from 50 to 74 on a break and was out of position for every shot but one.
― mea nulta (onimo), Thursday, 30 April 2015 19:34 (nine years ago) link
bingham's position better than hawkins'
murphy has the best position game of the remaining players by miles
― carles the jekyll (imago), Thursday, 30 April 2015 19:36 (nine years ago) link
scoring seems to have held up for years despite positional play going backwards to an extent
modern players seem to play 3/4 table recovery shots with ease - shots that many pre-Hendry players would refuse
― mea nulta (onimo), Thursday, 30 April 2015 19:51 (nine years ago) link
don't like trump for some reason

ha. i hate the shoe thing.but mk2 is too young to care re such frivolities.trump is a local boy, so therein lies a reason for his passion.personally, i would love it if bingham trashed his groove as we share the same hairstyle.

Assuming he's got nothing left..
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 1 May 2015 12:51 (nine years ago) link
Yeah, he's the world number 5. Maybe it's a trap - let Murphy get to 16 and then...

Don't care abot the shoes or Burger King badge. First frame of new session: Trump with some aggressive play but again shit safety and Bingham clears up. 6-4.
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 1 May 2015 14:05 (nine years ago) link
Great response, century for 6-5
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 1 May 2015 14:16 (nine years ago) link
At the next Bingham should've punished some terrible play from trump (the early attacking split of the pack from the Brown) but he has missed one - key clerance coming up.
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 1 May 2015 14:31 (nine years ago) link
Let off: 6-5
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 1 May 2015 14:35 (nine years ago) link
at the next Trump attacks rather than play safe when he breaks down: 7-5 Bingham.
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 1 May 2015 14:56 (nine years ago) link
Incredible positional shot from Judd from pink to get to the red. Really has to be seen to be believed, but then he misses the tough red.
Bingham clears for 8-5.
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 1 May 2015 15:34 (nine years ago) link
I don't care about shoes or fast food endorsements either, just don't like either his playing style or demeanour
― an absolute feast of hardcore fanboy LOLs surrounding (imago), Friday, 1 May 2015 15:35 (nine years ago) link
8-6 Bingham, nice enough break from Trump.
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 1 May 2015 16:00 (nine years ago) link
I don't see the Bingman winning tbh - even though he's good and in front
― StanM, Friday, 1 May 2015 16:02 (nine years ago) link
At the next greta little shot from Trump on the red but he often doesn't close out the deal - misses the green.
Getting tense all round now..
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 1 May 2015 16:04 (nine years ago) link
I can see it going to the last frame.
Conclusion from the day's proceedings = its Murphy's title to lose.
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 1 May 2015 16:05 (nine years ago) link
Murphy's trousers/waistcoat combo >>>>>

Murphy gone to sleep.

He's not wearing his lucky waistcoat tonight.
― StanM, Friday, 1 May 2015 19:21 (nine years ago) link
14-7. Three frames left.
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 1 May 2015 19:34 (nine years ago) link
To see Doherty commentating as well (he of course made that amazing comeback against Paul Hunter in the SF a few years ago)
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 1 May 2015 19:35 (nine years ago) link
Murphy waking up again, should win here for 15-7
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 1 May 2015 19:42 (nine years ago) link
90+ and century from Murphy - one away.
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 1 May 2015 19:57 (nine years ago) link
10 min session tomorrow then.
― xyzzzz__, Friday, 1 May 2015 20:10 (nine years ago) link
Trump has begun well, v unfortunate for Bingham to get a red accidentally into the pocket after potting a black. Wins the next too.
9-9.
― xyzzzz__, Saturday, 2 May 2015 09:35 (nine years ago) link
Excellent break by Bingham, some tricky shots in that in the first real opportunity he had. 10-9
