Can someone tell John Parrott that there is no such word as 'nothink'?

It's pronounced 'nuffink'.

I have to say I am finding watching Ronnie less and less credible.

Always seems to find a way to "lose his way" before a remarkable comeback to win.

I am perhaps being unfair but to me there seems to be a pattern.

The same has occured to me. My theory was that he 'toyed' with his opponent to give himself a challenge.. do you think there is more to it?

No I think your right, I guess it gives him a challenge

Anyway both matches this afternoon finished early.

not suggesting anything nefarious, just to give himself more of a challenge/reason to carry on playing for the excitement.

I'm losing patience with the O'Sullivan schtick I must admit. It was kind of fun before, to have a professional sportsperson saying how they don't really like the game they play and they didn't play well, despite annihilating their opponent 13-0 etc etc. But now it's just getting tiresome, if you don't enjoy the game, fk off, if you do, stop whining about it all the time.

And don't even get me started on his die hard 'fans' in the audience, squealing, shouting and clutching furiously at their penisies every time he bangs in a long red, left-handed.

We need to get Peter Ebdon back to troll him.

Im sure his mind wasn't fully concentrated as he knew he could beat Day anytime he wanted,

Day hadn't beaten him for 13 years. !

Went for the other match ,Lisowski vs Bingham, haven't been disappointed with my choice so far.

High time he threw the towel in, he should have been given the same penalty as Pat Mooney.

Higgins did not deserve to win that, horrible bloke.

Really felt for Mark Allen, 62-0 up and lost

Fingers crossed he loses in the next round.

Fantastic match, brilliant win for John there, some bottle to take on the double and clear up.

Mark will win it yet, his day will come.

Great snooker today.

Higgins / Allen; I enjoy watching both players & I think Higgins’ double was a fabulous shot under the circumstances.

Would have been happy if either won.

Bingham / Lisowski; Could have been a final. Either man winning would have suited me.

As for o’Sullivan. I think he’s a weirdo. His fanbase are also weird. Would be delighted to see Stuart Bingham beat him.

FWIW Allen isn't a decent guy either.
