SD's affected commentary delivery is bad enough, but does he ever stop talking?? Poor DT can't get a bloody word in!

This is................................................ ................... what it................................................ ............ sounds like, listening................................... to................................................ .............. Steve Davis commentating.

Most people have respect for him as a snooker player and a great ambassador for the sport, but he seems to say 101 words when it could be said in one sentence. "Interesting"

Max alert!

[PatBlock]

Higgins on for a max here 9 reds + blacks.....

Ah what a shame. But enjoyable match so far.

[DeanH]

a nice attempt at a max by Higgins; 13 reds 13 blacks;
should have taken the one on the rail the shot before :wink:

[PatBlock]

Well, no 147 but maximum entertainment from that half session, great stuff from both.

I'm almost only interested in 15 red pinks in pro snooker now.
With Binghams 120 on sunday and the frolics at the UK it's becoming par for the course.

so here is the first attempt by WS to get snooker a bigger mass audience

What a match so far!! Too bad Higgins missed a sitter because he was on pace for a 4th century in 5 frames won! Liang is also very much in form, knocking in big breaks as well. Unbelievable standard !

Very interesting comment by SD just now " back in the nineties the powers that be decided the pockets should be tightened up" .

[trains]

These oddity Eurosport commentators saying matches are the best because of big breaks when the frame is over after 9 or 10 reds,oh I've forgot the mute button this week.

[daffie]

Another great match! Very glad to see JH come through. Feel for Wenbo, he played really well and is becoming a great player.

Do you prefer the Beeb gang? With JV harrassing us all the bloody time with his trademark "Where's the cue ball goin' ???" Or Dennis Taylor and "how nowadays cloths are so fast and reactive! look at the development of the white here!" Or DT again, who can't help himself but to talk about any player's girlfriend or wife in every game the girls are in the audience?

I guess both crew have their own pros and cons but personnally, I ran as far away as I can from the Beeb coms...just fed up to hear the same mass all the time.

[DeanH]

thoroughly enjoyed that match
hope for another later

with his recent win in Gibraltar I hope Fu is in sparkling form
