I can't criticise him at all. He's been saying for a few days he's not happy about the audience being there and now he's decided not to risk his health. Yes, he could have decided earlier but have you never changed your mind?paulie8290 said:ANTHONY HAMILTON HAS PULLED OUT OF THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS DUE TO HEALTH CONCERNS
what was the point in him going through Qualifiers just to pull out, he knew a crowd was gonna be there its been known for a couple of weeks about 300 people were gonna be let in
Sam Craigie and Scott Donaldson will be fuming lol1 -
I think Barry Hearn should learn to keep his gob shut occasionally.paulie8290 said:
I don't get this, if Barry Hearn has even come out and said this why cant he offer Scott Donaldson a lucky loser place3 -
As ever Team Ronnie here, they have been very strict in previous events. There shouldnt be a crowd really, whilst i do think its bad for the game Hamilton pulling out, but its his choice and Barry Hearn has gone way OTT publicly slating him, Hearn is a self centred twat and only worried about selling tickets, making money and not the players.paulie8290 said:Trump has massively gone up in my estimations lol

I just love this quote
"I have been around the game long enough to know that if there is a World Championship coming up, he [O'Sullivan] is going to try to get the headlines
Which was exactly what I thought when I saw the BBC story about O'Sullivan, it was 2 days before the tournament was starting and people were not taking about him lol
Anyway moving on, not long now! i am looking forward to it, Trump v Ford could be a good game to kick off with.1 -
Looking forward to it. Trump still the man to beat IMO
Any score predictions @paulie8290 Just for fun?1 -
I don't rate Ford at all, I don't think I've ever seen him play well. Trump will have a slightly more difficult first round than Wilson. I hope he proves me wrong as I can't stand Trump.

I'll go Trump wins 10-5
Bingham beats Carty 10-40 -
I didn't and dont particularly like him but know he can turn up, has a few 147 so his scoring isnt the problem.LawrieAbrahams said:I don't rate Ford at all, I don't think I've ever seen him play well.

Not really sure about scores think it will depend how players adjust
Players like Trump haven't played for a month now, and how will players like Carty cope in fact how wil everyone cope with the weird setup
What i will say is the odds are ridiculous imo
Things like Selby being 1/14 against Jordan Brown
Or Bingham 1/12 against Carty
Its not like the players they are against have no chance, like I said I think its all about how these players cope with the circumstances1 -
Here we go0
-
I dont expect Trump to have too big a problem against Ford, but the opening day at the crucible has a habit of doing funny things to defending champions1

Bingham takes frame 1 over on table 20

2-0 Tom Ford on table 10
-
Game on! this is the perfect set up for a contest, still have a feeling once Trump is underway but stranger things have happen, would be a massive shock like similar to Cahill beating Ronnie last year.0

I should say in 2014 World Championship one of the 3 previous events that Tom Ford qualified for and lost in the first round he actually faced Trump and lost 10-8.
I wonder if we could have the same scoreline today0 -
They also stated before he beat him in qualifying for the crucible which was a race to 10. Its not impossible, just needs to keep Judd quiet. Once trump gets in he is unstoppable sometimes, a bit nervy early on here Ford needs to make the most of it.paulie8290 said:I should say in 2014 World Championship one of the 3 previous events that Tom Ford qualified for and lost in the first round he actually faced Trump and lost 10-8.

Early days of course, but Judd struggling. Very out of sorts1
