Robertson v Selby in th UK Championship Final.

Virgo :bow:

Already had a "Where's the X ball going?!?!?" When it was quite obviously going about a foot wide of a pocket :lol:

Currently Robertson is leading 8 frames to 7. Best of 19.

:popcorn:

[LDG]

Selby missed the black in a one ball game :lol:

Robertson one frame away...

Currently Robertson is leading 8 frames to 7. Best of 19.

:popcorn:

I had it on for literally 4 seconds one day last week.

"Where's the red going?!"

As it turned out, nowhere near. :lol:

But thanks to my shitty TV I have a snooker table stamped on my screen. A snooker table made by QVC.

[LDG]

Robertson wins! 10-7

[Letters]

Going to see the Masters today

:dance:

[Niall_Quinn]

100% dive.

[Niall_Quinn]

In the Stoke/ Pool match I mean.

Damn....

[Letters]

It was really good, thanks for asking <_<

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Did you have to change your earpiece?

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Hypocrite.

[LDG]

:haha:

Selby looked on fire at the start yesterday...didn't realise there would be a fight back from Davis.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

:haha:

Selby looked on fire at the start yesterday...didn't realise there would be a fight back from Davis.

If only someone had actually been there to give us a perspective from inside the arena.

Maybe they could even answer our questions about the day. Alas.

[LDG]

"Where's the dwarf going!!!!!"

[Letters]

<_<

I didn't get an earpiece but lots of people did have to change them.

It's really good live, used to go every year with a friend and then we stopped going but he suggested it just before Christmas. Will definitely do it again next year.

[LDG]

Ronnie :bow:

Kicking ass again.

Mid session interval in the final.

He leads Selby 3-9

[LDG]

Ronnie wins!

Awesome snooker :bow:

[LDG]

Ronnie kicks of his World title defence at 10am. BBC2 for anyone interested, then probably red button 10mins later.

Ronnie :bow:

Snooker :bow:

The Crucible :bow:

"Where's the white ball going?" :bow:

Needlessly long mid-session fillers :bow:

"Knowledgeable crucible audience" :bow:

[LDG]

[LDG]

Ronnie takes the first, and the second with a century break of 124.

Robin Hull and Emu :pal:

[LDG]

Ronnie takes the third.

Rod Hull :lol:

Awful kids TV presenter and snooker player

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Even the true pub teamers can put together a century break.

3-1.

[LDG]

3-1

Hull makes a century of his own.

[LDG]

Davis on the Sky gadget :lol:

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

The BBCPad :lol:

Not quite Neville yet.

Needs Carragher.

[LDG]

Needlessly long mid-session fillers :bow:

Also.

They used this analysis stuff in the Masters.

BBC cutting budgets.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Ken Doherty. This Is Your Life.

[LDG]

Ken Doherty. This Is Your Life.

[LDG]

Doherty getting stuffed by the Weeble, Bingham thus far.

Ronnie back out.

[LDG]

5-1 Ronnie

[LDG]

Ronnie leads 7-2 going into the final session.

Bingham leads Doherty 5-4

Currently it's Steven Maguire leading Ryan Day 2-1

And Fat Sean Murphy all square with one apiece against Jamie Cope

[LDG]

Doherty has taken all four frames in the first session so far this morning :o

He leads Fat Bingham 5-8

He took the next two, too :o

Doherty goes through.

As does Ali Carter.

Cope v Murphy tonight should be interesting....

[LDG]

Two good matches on at the moment.

Alan Macmanus (blast from the past) is causing John Higgins all kind of problems, currently leading 4-1

Ding Junhui leads some pub scrote Wasley 8-6

Though Wasley was 6-3 down and got back to 6-6 playing some pretty useful snooker.

[LDG]

Final frame thriller going down between Selby and White.

##

Funniest moment earlier was Selby on the yellow, and he played the pink instead thinking it was a free ball.

The ref just looked at him funny and called the foul :lol:

[LDG]

Selby takes it 10-9

Good match that.

[LDG]

Ding v Walsey up next....

Weird that they're playing so late :blink:

They got taken off the table earlier to allow the 7pm session to be played. Now called back on :lol:

I was just about to retire <_<

Junhui leads 9-8

JV in the box :bow:

[LDG]

Someone needs to sort Walsey's hair out.

Awful barnet.

[LDG]

Walsey takes it to a decider :bow:

Shit hair. Good snooker.

[LDG]

This lad is some player, win or lose.

[LDG]

Massive fluke!!

Ding needs a snooker with pink and black left!!

[LDG]

Walsey wins!!

[LDG]

Shit! That was mental.

Bugger. Left it a bit late to bed, and with the baby due to wake up any minute for his five our scream fest, I may not be getting much sleep :(

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Perry leads Ronnie 3-1. :blink:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronnie does win though, 13-11. :bow:

[LDG]

Ronnie does win though, 13-11. :bow:

:bow:

Sorry Mac. Commentary over to your fine self, or others.

Docherty v McManus on with ken batting on...

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It's ok you can take it. :whistle:

Doherty vs McManus does make me feel like I have gone back in time though.

[LDG]

It's ok you can take it. :whistle:

Doherty vs McManus does make me feel like I have gone back in time though.

I really can't.

I keep coming home, and there's a baby.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

You knew there was always a chance of this happening though.

[LDG]

Macmanus triumphed vs Doherty in the end.

He'll play Selby in the Qtrs, in what surely will be the most boring match ever.

Murphy v Fu on at the moment currently one each.

Allen leads Robertson by 2-1 in the live match.

[LDG]

Robertson took the fourth. 2-2 at the interval.

Interview with fat arrogant Murphy.

He really is a wanker.

And he's fat.

And a wanker.

A fat wanker.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

:haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Where's the cue ball going?!

:haha:

[LDG]

Fat Murphy v Fu is 4-4

As is Allen v Robertson.

Both matches resume tonight...

Looks like young Walsey is takinh a pasting at the hands of Dominic Dale. 11-3 at present.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Is nobody else just completely creeped out by Dale?

[LDG]

Is nobody else just completely creeped out by Dale?

Dude is a homo.

Feel little bit sorry for Walsey, but he has a shocker in fashion sense too.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

He does seem to enjoy chalking his cue.

[LDG]

What a pasting Ronnie gave fat murphy :bow:

He leads Hawkins 6-2 in the first semi.

Robertson v Selby is currently 2-2

Should be a cracking game that!

[LDG]

Session finished up with Selby leading 5-3.

Great snooker :bow:

[LDG]

Ronnie :bow:

Wins 17-7!

Books a place in the final with a day to spare!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronnie. :bow:

[LDG]

Selby beat Robertson 17-15 :bow:

Epic match.

Stupid drinking caused me to fall asleep during the final few franes :doh:

On to the final :popcorn:

Should be a real battle as Selby is pretty awlsome. If it wasn't for Ronnie, I'd be cheering him on, as I think he deserves to be world champ.

First year I wouldn't be gutted if Ronnie lost.

That said....

Come on Ron! :scarf:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Robertson. :haha:

Aussies. :haha:

Come on Ronnie. :bow:

[LDG]

He is pretty fuckin awesome.

5-9 he leads, and he's just playing special stuff.

Love it.

Ron :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Probably going to make it 10-5 from this sitting.

[LDG]

This is some of the best snooker I've seen.

Ronnie :bow:

You can't live with that.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And 10-5 it is. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Where's the cue ball going?!

[LDG]

Where's the

Where is!

Oh

Five foot past it

[McNamara That Ghost...]

How hasn't that touched the red? :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronnie. :bow:

[LDG]

What a shot! :faint:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Although that was awful on the black.

[LDG]

Whoops!

Selby should now punish Ronnie.

[LDG]

This lad is the only one who comes close.

Fuck Robertson. He's a puff.

Selby could push this close still.....

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Exciting tip talk.

[LDG]

"Can you get him to leave please"

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Re-rack. :bow:

[LDG]

Re-rack :bow:

[LDG]

Damn you mac ner mar ra.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

BLitW :bow:

[LDG]

Potty pottersons!

[LDG]

Slo mo :bow:

[LDG]

Seriously, if it wasn't for "the most natural player tonhave played the game naturally, playing snooker", selby would be zeee best for me.

Edit: current players, you gays.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Just calling him Selby will suffice.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a pub frame.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

10-7 going in to tomorrow. :popcorn:

[LDG]

10-7 it will be.

:wave:

[LDG]

Here we go again! :dance:

[LDG]

Ronnie pots the white :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronnie pots the cue ball. :doh:

[LDG]

Selby takes the first of the session.

10-8 :popcorn:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Poor old Selby. 22 points in fouls. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronnie hasn't really turned up yet.

[LDG]

Selby on it.

Come on Ronnie!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

10-10. Arsenal related people in a final. :lol:

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

Selby in form

Ronnie's on a negative spiral

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ridiculous frame.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronnie has completely forgotten how to play snooker.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronnie draws the foul but then gives the frame away again by doing what I'd do and just whack the reds up the table. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Stinker of a frame.

[LDG]

Robot selby looks like going in front....

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronnie. :haha:

What is he doing? Selby leads 11-10.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Dr Steve :bow:

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

Steve Davis has definitely been questioned by police in relation to Operation Yewtree.

[LDG]

Come on Ronnie! Get on it!

[LDG]

Can't see Ronnie winning this one now.

Selby is just in Hendry mode.

[LDG]

Fuckin hell Ronnie! :doh:

[LDG]

Then Selby cocks it! :o

Mental!!

[LDG]

And Ronnie misses it too!!

[LDG]

Ronnie finally mans up and wins the frame!

11 each!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Man in the Pub - Mike: This has all the makings to become one of the great world championship finals of all time -and it genuinely could go either way.

Brave call Pub Mike.

Selby just fucked it.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

A whole generation of snooker players will be determined to make sure no no ball falls in to the pocket.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronnie pots the cue ball again.

[LDG]

He's having a shocker today.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Now Selby does. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What the hell is this?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Looking like Ronnie will have this one, Selby fairly snookered.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Or not. :doh:

[LDG]

Or not....

Messy frames these

[LDG]

Selby jamming snookers at every fluffed shot

[LDG]

And again....

[LDG]

And again....

Blimey!

[LDG]

Selby being so fucking lucky!!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Three times Selby has fluked in to a snooker. Can't beleive this frame is still going on. :lol:

[LDG]

Then Selby misses a green over the pocket!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Hmmm I can't decide what kind of takeway is best for the Snooker.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I really don't understand this frame. :haha:

[LDG]

Ronnie misses it too.

This frame is a bitch.

It will be the last onenof the session though.

Only 6 frames due to the scrappy long frames.

[LDG]

Hmmm I can't decide what kind of takeway is best for the Snooker.

Curry.

Always.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Yes, possibly.

Ronnie. :bow:

12-11. I hope.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

OH MY GOD.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

All on the black for Selby.

[LDG]

Fuck me! :o

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Selby takes it and leads 12-11. Dear lord.

[LDG]

Davis says he won't atempt a 100/100 shot :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

:doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Final session on now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Great splitting of the pack from Ronnie.

He's back!

Willie Thorne BBC Sport's hairstyle correspondent.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

12-12. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

And a century break.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Another frame that has turned in to a scrappy one. The reds not really in helpful positions.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Selby 13-12 possibly.

[LDG]

Definitely getting the run is Selby.

Misses the pink though!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Should know better than that by now, Ronnie at the table. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

A little smile there for Uncle Willie. :sick:

[LDG]

13-12 selby!

:ninja:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Me. :lol:

[LDG]

Selby has won this surely. Everything is going for him.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Oh FFS Ronnie.

[LDG]

:banghead:

Scrappy fuckin crap <_<

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronnie getting dragged down to tactical frames constantly. Not really any good for him.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I thought Selby was going to fluke it again.

[LDG]

:(

[McNamara That Ghost...]

14-12 Selby.

[LDG]

Another fluke!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronnie. :rose:

Can't do anything right.

[LDG]

Selby is playing awful, but he keeps getting gimmes!

[LDG]

Finally Ronnie gets a nice kiss.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

15-12. :rose:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Come on Ronnie, very quickly 15-13.

[LDG]

Bugger.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronnie. :doh:

Blown another opportunity.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Another life for Ronnie. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronnie can't see it out but at least he hasn't left anything on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a shot from Ronnie on the yellow. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

15-14 now. :popcorn:

[LDG]

That was one of the best shots I've ever seen under pressure!

:bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

16-14. :(

[LDG]

At least that was nice snooker for that frame.

Cracking century by Selby.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It's looking over. :(

[LDG]

Yup.

17-14 it is.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Brilliant from Ronnie.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

WTF?!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Selby wins the World Championship, well done to him.

[LDG]

Well played.

Fuck, that was filthy!

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

Ronnie :lol:

Couldn't stop his negative spiral.

[Herbert_Chapman's_Zombie]

Mark Selby looks like someone who has been sitting in his car crying, after being told by a doctor that he has testicular cancer

[LDG]

Ronnie was in a car crash after the final last night :o

Thankfull, he and his son were unhurt.

What a shit night though! :lol:

[Herbert_Chapman's_Zombie]

What a shit night though! :lol:

[LDG]

Ronnie on at 7pm in the UK Champs.

Wonderful final this :popcorn:

Ronnie 5-1 and 9-4 up against Trump. Game over.

Just think how many trophies he could have won had his mind been okay through out his career...

[adzzzbatch]

ronnie :haha: :haha: :haha:

Commentators are gutted :pal:

[LDG]

Snooker is back!

Worldies are on, which means a few weeks of solid snooker watching :dance:

Selby looking to retain his title, but currently trails some pub team pool player 8-9 in a best of 19

[LDG]

Selby faught back and sneaked it in the end.

The bloke is a robot.

[LDG]

Maguire getting trounced by that bloke who used to play Bradley in Eastenders.

Maguire always gets shit on in this tournament :lol:

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Oh good.

Wave energy in Australia.

Marvellous.

[LDG]

5-8 at the mid session interval.

It's a fucking awful game of snooker.

Ronnie doesn't play until Tuesday

McGill beat Maguire in the end. That one went the distance.

Higgins is through against Milkins

Fat "Thin" Graham Dott knocked out Walden

Marco Fu went through against some pubber.

Barry Hawkins won 10-9 against Selt

Mark Allen (NI) v Ryan Day (Wal)
Mark Williams (Wal) v Matthew Stevens (Wal)

[LDG]

Ding beat Davis 10-7, but cocked up a 147 after potting 12 reds and 12 blacks, before losing his bodily functions and screwing back for the blue :doh:

Mark Allen leads Ryan Day 6-3. They resume this evening.

Next up, it's The Rocket. Ronnie O'Sullivan

:popcorn:

[LDG]

Ronnie has taken the first two frames :bow:

Steadman is the baldest man since Duncan Goodhew

[LDG]

7th frame between Williams and Stevens has had everything :lol:

Stevens made a blinding pot on the blue, being snookered and the white virgo'd in. Still won it though.

He leads 2-5

Ronnie leads Steadman 7-2, concludes tomorrow.

[LDG]

Jesus! 8th frame and the players have potted the white a combined 8 times!

Virgo has been frothing at the mouth!

[LDG]

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/snooker/32390231

You are so irresponsible.

You bastard!

You've made me stop work and start watching snooker.

You are so irresponsible.

At least someone else is watching it :lol:

8-2 Ronnie :bow:

Steadman is a shocking player.

[LDG]

Ronnie won 10-3

Ronnie :bow:

[LDG]

Joe Perry currently 4-0 up on someone I've not heard of before.

[LDG]

Matthew Stevens beat Mark Williams 10-2

Williams :rose:

He now faces Ronnie in the 2nd round. Should be a decent match that.

[Niall_Quinn]

Are you still watching? I fell asleep ages ago. Just woke up. Almost time to knock off for another day.

[LDG]

Are you still watching? I fell asleep ages ago. Just woke up. Almost time to knock off for another day.

[LDG]

Fat Sean Murphy is 7-2 up against Robin Hull & Emu

Perry (weird eyes he's got) playing Zing Anda is currently 8-4 to the good.

Judd Trump looking good (no gay) against Carrington. Is live on the box now, and leading 4-1

[LDG]

Fat Murphy 10-3 Robin Hull

Trump and Perry through.

Selby and McGill tied at 4-4. They start again tomorrow.

Ding and Higgins slugging it out tonight. Higgins leading it 2-1 at present.

[LDG]

Selby :haha:

Had to work all day today so didn't see it :(

[LDG]

Ronnie looking awlsome. 12-4 against Stevens, playing tonight.

Robertson is doing a similar job on Ali Carter, leading 11-5.

Trump leads Fu 10-6, whilst Fat Sean Murphy is 12-4 up against Joe Perry.

Ronnie, Robertson and Trump are playing the best snooker, but Murphy looks in form. He usually bottles it in the later rounds though.

My money is on Robertson...Ronnie needs to be 100% if he's going to do it, and he looks a little off that......McGill may surprise a few more yet too.

[LDG]

Trump is through. He'll play Ding Junhui next

Arrogant Fat Murphy is through, and he'll face McGill next.

[LDG]

Ronnie through easily. 13-5

[LDG]

Ronnie is out :(

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ronnie. :o

[LDG]

I'll be in the Trump camp from now on.

Bingham was a robot. Potted everything in the middle this evening.

Hawkins and Robertson are tied 10-10. Could be some :popcorn: in this one.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bingham won on a final deciding frame, he plays Murphy.

:sick:

[LDG]

Bingham won on a final deciding frame, he plays Murphy.

I'm not watching that final. Can't stand either of them.

Williams vs Hawkings has been a brilliant semi-final. Williams has a chance to win it as I t...ha, literally as I was writing that Williams missed a relatively easy pink.

Could go to a deciding frame.
