2019 World Snooker Championship

[Cue crafty]

Lolz, love is a many splendoured thing.

Grotbags was a tv character from the 70s...

I remember a green faced witch character from kids TV program that was in the 90's I think? Was there an older one blah?

He genuinely looks like he's passed away there. Did the commentators pick up on it? Never seen anything like that before.

I assumed he was looking at a screen to see whether the shot was on etc....

But he could have been stretching his back\neck.

Anyone who wins it now has a story. Judd wins his first WC...Gilbert and Wilson winning it out of no where...Higgins winning it after losing in the last 2 finals earns it for him also.

Higgins was the steadier man under pressure regardless of the table conditions so deserved the win.

That outrageous fluke Higgins got when Robbo was up i think 7-5 and it went in the middle ended up being the match changer.

I really really hope Gilbert can take out Higgins in the semis but i doubt it. In this tournament, who knows.

Judd i fear may be 'out experienced' by Higgins in the final.

To be fair, Higgins said the same thing about the conditions after winning, and it's quite clear just from watching on TV that some of the bounces are ridiculous. Not surprising at all, unfortunately, it's the same story every year at the Crucible.

How is it possible that in one of the biggest matches of the snooker season the playing conditions were so bad? Is it sour grapes by Robertson or does he have a valid point?

On track for record number of tons this year hmm

He was looking for the score I suppose. Or, was he? Just saw the video, he fell asleep I think.

Neil still trusts Taom.

He has half a point. Did you see some of the bounces of those cushions?

However as a pro snooker player you adapt to the ****ty table, as Higgins showed.

Ha ha yes. He didn't have a backswing or a follow through!

It's incredible how coaches and books tell us about cue action. As long as you are comfortable and scoring well, it doesn't really matter IMO.
