His implication being that side is only useful in limited circumstances. Sorry for any confusion. He is wrong anyway, running side on slowish cloths back in the 80s was tremendously useful; you either hit the top or bottom pretty hard or you used running side to get around angles. Neither was wrong back then, it was about the result. Davis did it his way, and Thorne another way. The difference in records is down to Thorne's ability to cope under pressure compared to Davis. Thorne was a great player and the insinuation Terry makes that Thorne's record wasn't as good as Davis due to use of side is ungentlemanly for a 'coach'. Thorne suffered problems with nerves that manifested in addictions that ruined his and other people's lives; a tragedy. Thorne's banter however is very much like an over-cooked trout resting in the fridge for many weeks. For that, he deserves to play shot after shot ad infinitum, plain ball, plain ball, plain ball for a million years in the after-life whilst also quoting odds of his own chances of the pot before, during and even after the shot post-reflection, being forced to listen to his own comms. Dante's 7th level indeed.

You'd think this would be bread an butter and largely agreed upon. Physics are physics at the end of the day. As an engineer by trade this really baffles me.

The question is guys.
Did Wilson just play the swerve to try and hit the natural BOB to make the pot?.
IMO, Wilson didn't 100% think his 5 o'clock hit turned the OB in the pocket. He considered it was kick too hence the call to the ref to clean the CB. On slow pots the chances of kicks happen more often and when they do happen you can blatantly see the OB straighten up.
And guys, please stop poking fun at Terry. His a respected forum member and has helped many on here with hours and hours of posting. Do yourselves some favours and keep it more tasteful.
