absolute pricks
but, sticking to the actual snooker Vafaei has been just ridiculous. Really looking forward to him vs Ronnie, it has the potential to a really great match1 -
Thought it was only linseed oil used on snooker cues....?0

Needed a young Ray Winstone and an old sock.6

Absolutely ludicrous
And why snooker of all the sports to target?0 -
Those snooker balls on the table should have been shoved somewhere painful2

I’m very concerned about climate change, however this is mindless provocation for the sake of it, does nothing absolutely nothing to raise awareness, build support, develop & explore policy, or for that matter have absolutely any tangible impact whatsoever, other than to alienate people. The Just Stop Oil movement has to be the the most unimaginative and massively counter productive attempt at protest I can recall.
And what why snooker?!? It’s not exactly high carbon!0 -

On a separate note, my friends and I have been discussing how great a snooker manager game would’ve been on cd-rom in the early to mid 90s. You don’t get to play as anyone, but manage them. You might take over Graeme Dott and have to weigh up a sponsorship deal from Nairn’s - something along those lines. It’s gotten quite ridiculous - this where we’re now at with it in terms of scenarios you get given as manager“The junior world championships are running at the same time as the 1992 world championships and an eager 16 year old Stuart Bingham asks you to manage him.You agree because you think Stuart has a bright future ahead of him and you need to reinvigorate your fledgling managerial career as Snooker undergoes a transformation in general.Whilst at the tournament, you notice a 27 year old Hazel Irvine giving a you a few looks from across the bar one evening. You’re with Stuart and he’s drinking a shandy bass and eating some crisps. You think Hazel may be flirting with you, so you wander over to say hello. 2 hours pass and although you have bought Hazel a few glasses of Chardonnay, you don’t really think there’s much of connection.You return to where you were sat and notice Stuart is nowhere to be seen. Panicked, you look around and realise Stuart has convinced an unsuspecting Bar man that it was lager he was drinking, not shandy bass. Stuart has consumed 5 pints in the 2 hours you were sat trying it on with Hazel and is leathered, so much so he’s pestering Willie Thorn. Immediately you can tell Willie is angry, this could spell disaster for you, and Bullrun.Do youA) come running over and apologise immediately, hoping Willie will calm down
wait and see if some of the other senior pros will calm Willie down
C) Do nothing and leave Stuart to face the consequences”2 -

Willie was a nice guy, I'm sure he would be ok if I got Stuart to apologise and I bought him a drink and some moustache cream 😉0 -

A by the wayTerry Griffith approaches you and warns you about the conduct of Nigel Bond. He informs you that the other players on the circuit don’t take too kindly to the comments Bond has been making to the media. James Watana wants him expelled from the circuit. What do you do?a) Sack Bond from your stable.b) Try to convince Griffith that Bond is really a nice guy.c) Offer Griffith a bribe to start praising Bond and bad mouthing Watana.d) Call John Virgo for advice.1 -
paulie8290 said:Table 1 needs a recloth despite the best efforts from Rob Walker(nothing that man can't do)
Unfortunately due to needing to be hammered(according to Hendry) it can't be done whilst the other match is on so needs to be done overnight.
So Allen and Fan will finish their match on table 2 and then a decision will be made on if Perry and Milkins can come out on table 2 tonight9 -

Call John Vigo for advice is always the answer to any issue.

Dennis Taylor has suggested you come to Ulster, as it’s a potential hotbed of young talent as snooker provides an escape for the youngsters of Northern Ireland who are at risk of getting involved in the ongoing troubles.You accept his offer, but after some further research and reading up on Dennis, you discover he was born in the same town as Denis Haughey, founding member of the SDLP.You worry that this is all a ruse and Dennis wants you over there to be seen fraternizing with the SDLP and you’re unsure what associating with a party that advocate for the reunification of Ireland could mean for your reputation to attract Irish players, both north and south of the border. Do youA) Ring Dennis and make up some excuse about getting sea sick so you can’t go across on the ferry and are also afraid of flying
Ask Dennis what his relationship to Martin McGuiness is
C) convince yourself you’ll find a few gems over there and everything will turn out fineD) call John Virgo1 -
Can we have a Big Bill Werbeniuk one next please !0

Cracking game and strong comeback from Murphy but blew it running out of position like that.
Si is going to be some player to put it a performance like that at just 20.0
