snooker world championship final

tht whole frame was excruciating

^^^^

Ahhh Belgian, was wondering where his nearly midnight come from.

this fucking match

i know, i may retire, keep checking iplayer while watching the road.

Like the great champion he is, Ray Reardon has spotted that Rishi is tiring and is proceeding to grind him down.

not_goodwin are you driving while watching the snooker world championship final and posting to ilx

They should do a retro tournament special where these new young players drink pints and smoke while playing 30 odd frames.

xpost, ha!

no, the film "the road"

looooooool

Tactfully avoiding mentioning Quinten Hann there, well done Dennis.

When did the Ebdon-Dott nightmare finish? Cos I think that was later than 1985's final, and as such the latest ever. But this will surely go roaring past that...

guh

on for a 6am finish at this rate

dott's just chanking them now

cba by the looks of it

This could finally be the cure for my ongoing insomnia...

"Whose game is affected most under the pressure?" = my new favourite euphemism for "Whose fault is this?"

This could finally be the cure for my ongoing insomnia...

i know what you mean, the soothing sound of virgo and the clunk of the balls is kinda hypnotic

xpost
even the clapping sounds tired

I actually feel I could go to sleep for an hour or so, and wake up and they'd still be on this frame.

does anyone think dott can still win this?

no

Latest one was Selby v Higgins in 2007, according to the bloke propping his eyes open with matchsticks on the Beeb's text commentary site.

Cliff Thorburn's moustache - still got it.

Mistakes galore!

Cliff look damn sharp, bet he's got some stories to tell?

this will not go on much longer - the extra gear has been found

gd is tiring a little?

he's fucked

totally out of this w/no way back in

Come on, slow down or this won't even be the latest finish ever!

well done sir

kinda feel sorry for dott, he looked real sad then :(

weird trophy presentation there :/

well played big fat neil robertson

what an actually garbage final

Oh noes, they have burst out "Down Under" at the Crucible :-/

dott 'the pride of scotland' - good higgins zing

fucking Men at Work what a soundtrack to realising your dreams

is he gay?

oh they've given him his trophy properly now, think the first guy fucked up just handing it to him before the interviews.

His girlfriend is duty to give birth any day

(Robertson's that is, so probably not gay)

how much did he win?

Quarter of a million. Nice.

JP pointed out he should use some of it to reimburse his mum's airfare, in case he hadn't thought of it himself, and to make him sound like a right bastard if he didn't do it.

Very nice indeed!

£700 tops she paid, i'm sure he can manage that!

David Icke o_O

Ted Lowe is 90!!

wish i'd bet on robertson before the semis :( making a cool tenner from a fiver bet isn't the best.

Well done, Australia!

Re: me: yes, I'm in and from belgium. I try not to miss the top matches on tv but don't actively follow it much otherwise.

Fabrique Belgique!
