I find the love in peculiar too. He’s efficient at grinding out games yes, but not Selby style relentlessness. He’s a great break builder, but not anywhere near O’Sullivan’s panache or invention. He’s great at safety but somehow makes it uninteresting. I think it must be because if we all worked as hard, we’d end up like him, playing wise. Morally, we’re all miles better, or I’d like to think so. He may be near the top of the list in achievements, but his playing is so joyless it’s hard to appreciate it. And he’s a cheat.
I expect Higgins to come out swinging today and reduce the deficit to perhaps 14-11, but Trump to finish tonight.
I honestly think Higgins physique / fitness is hindering him, looks like he is struggling / grunting on some of the shots were he has to stretch. These finals are long sessions and I think he is suffering.

Django? He's a massive petrolhead and has owned an eye-watering amount of proper PH cars over the years (as you probably know). Great guy and very approachable.
Yes, must be nearly 30 years ago now but while at college I worked in a Burger King that he owned. In the same store I also worked with the girl who has gone on to be Stuart Binghams wife haha.But yes, even back in those days he was a massive petrolhead, last time I saw him he had a Ferrari 458 and Porsche GT3rs

Agree, I've loathed Higgins ever since the scandal because he didn't have the decency to put his hand up to it, but I also believe in second chances and tbh after years of abuse he's served his time.
Time to forget and move on. So I'm wishing both competitors good luck today, hope it's a good finish to the match.
Baws to that, he's not had nearly enough abuse imo. I can remember one heckler years ago, the rest of the crowds and pundits kiss his arse. Time to forget and move on. So I'm wishing both competitors good luck today, hope it's a good finish to the match.
Fat bd. Celtic fan. Cheat. I'm not short of reasons to dislike the prick.
