    Coventry man proposed at the Crucible about 6 years ago. Only getting married next year.....at the Crucible.

    He dragged that out a bit. Fair play. Spends so much on the snooker took him ages to save for the wedding.

    Seems to be wearing a Specials 'Ghost Town' T-shirt now instead of his trademark Coventry City jersey.

    It's an awful shame they banned the football shirts.

    Great frame for Williams to take. 9-7 to Hawkins overnight

    Did anyone see the end of that session there as hazel was signing off. Ronnie out in the arena waving and messing trying to put Davis and Hendry off while they were talking?? Hilarious. He's obviously there with Eurosport

    That was a lovely little shot of the blue to get position on the last red. Good start for Wilson

    Waiting a while for this match to get going. Could have lift off now hopefully.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,023 ✭✭✭✭Joe_ Public


    Bit of daylight opening up now.

    This is great cat and mouse snooker.

    Why is Ken shouting?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,253 ✭✭✭Stonedpilot


    Wilson looks bit loose safety wise.

    Higgins taking him to school.

    Higgins Williams final I think

    Monitor issues?

    Great start from Wilson but too many sloppy shots creeping in now. Will be hard for him if he lets Higgins go 4 clear.

    Do they ensure all people permitted are heavy chain smokers?. Is it a rule or something?.
    World coughing championship?.

    The incessant chesty coughs even annoying on TV.
    Must bother the players.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,253 ✭✭✭Stonedpilot


    Wilson lad hasnt a clue.

    Lot of poor safety giving Higgins chances he'll eat up all day long.

    Two very impressive breaks from Wilson.

    Looked nice and composed through that last clearance


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,474 ✭✭✭AllForIt


    Delighted with Wilsons performance at this stage of the match. Defiantly a world champion some day. I love his passion.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,095 ✭✭✭✭omb0wyn5ehpij9


    Looking like 13-11 overnight, decent session this evening


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,023 ✭✭✭✭Joe_ Public


    That was good stuff tonight. Wilson acquitted himself very well but just can't latch onto Higgins' coattails.

    You'd have to fancy Higgins to finish it off now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,337 ✭✭✭PropJoe10


    Absolutely stellar in this last frame from Higgins. He's carved out of granite. Should be a great final session tomorrow.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,648 ✭✭✭✭skipper_G


    I hope Wilson wins but Higgins is such a dogged match player, hard to see him losing. Last session could be fantastic if the standard is as good as this evening.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,474 ✭✭✭AllForIt


    I think 3 days is too long for semi-finals. I think they should make it first to 15 not 17. The final is only over 2 days and only 1 more frame needed to win that than the semi. Maybe logistically it's not possible as their are 2 semis rather just the 1 final (of course) but I just think it's a bit of a drag that semis take 3 days to complete.
