Worst standard final ever?

[Ekphantos]

there is no pleasing some people, what if the final had finished at midnight ?

Then I would have been quite tired the next day (considering that it would have been 1 A.M here), but happier

What is wrong with the final finishing at midnight? I would rather it finish at 3am and be dramatic than the complete non event which lead me to switch off at 3pm yesterday afternoon.

Thats fair enough! I'm just saying that finals have been criticised in the past for taking forever thats all!!!

The people complaining aren't snooker fans but those who say snooker is boring if every frame isn't over in under 5 minutes.

I must admit to turning off the World final this afternoon. I was sickened by the dreadful play I was witnessing. Ali Carter is the worst finalist ever and O'Sullivan is also terrible. What a shameful advert for snooker this is. I am embarrassed for sponsors, the audience, everyone connected with it. O'Sullivan has beaten the weakest field ever. Rubbish!

That's a ridiculous set of statements to make. Professional sportsmen simply cannot be brilliant all of the time. And to talk in the present tense when referring to their performances, is also silly; 'O'Sullivan is also terrible' You reckon? I think he's rather good, personally.

Why is it whenever there's a crap 0-0 football match (of which there is plently), it just happened to be a "poor game" or "one of those matches".. even, "Ah, well, that's just the way it goes sometimes.". But whenever we don't get nail-biting snooker finals, then it's "bad for the game" or "shameful"?

No, it wasn't a good final, but you know what? That's just the way it goes sometimes.

That was a very mature response, well done.

Grow up that is uncalled for.
