    Bad miss by Williams on the red after a tough break of 47. If Higgins snatches this frame, it’ll really hurt Williams and I reckon that’ll be the end of it for him

    Williams isn’t capable of winning frames in one visit at the moment.

    Is that three times he’s been in and made about 50 and then made a mess of it.

    Yeah think so. Breaks of 50 at this stage of a World final are usually great. Its just that Higgins hasn't missed a ball so far tonight.

    Wash, rinse, repeat. Williams breaks down on a difficult shot. Cue, Higgins comes in and cleans up.

    And another break that Williams breaks down on. It's at the point that anytime he's between 47-65 points, a miss is on it's way. Higgins is winning all the frames, but Mark is handing them to him

    This is sickening. Williams did all the hard work just to leave Higgins in for a straightforward-ish clear up.

    Full credit to John Higgins for coming back from the brink. Cream rises to the top I suppose.

    Still hope Williams wins.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,280 ✭✭✭✭mdwexford


    Do they have to show Higgins family after every third shot. Jesus Christ it’s driving me nuts.

    Does the director really think viewers want to look at them that often.

    The man is an animal on the baize. Greatest match player ever for me.

    That’s Higgins for you isn’t it, Williams has ripped open the carcass, exposed all the meat for John to come in and gorge himself on, a vulture par excellence.

    If ever a frame winning clearance was needed.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,977 ✭✭✭✭The Nal


    This is about where Williams has been breaking down

    Edit:FFS

    Never st that speed anyway


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 56,599 ✭✭✭✭walshb


    Excruciating stuff. Williams folding while a match-fixer ploughs on, and the snooker world pretends that everyone is happy regardless of the result. Snooker needs Higgins NOT to win!

    With all due respect will you ever go and........

    Why? What have I said that's inacurate?

    Yeah it's really getting on my tits too now. It's just so inappropriate.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,476 ✭✭✭Comic Book Guy


    Come on to f**k Mark...


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,569 ✭✭✭The Golden Miller

    I think people want to enjoy and talk about the match. Not keep going over a topic that has been discussed ad nauseum by this stage

    Careful...am on a warning for getting involved with that repetitive cr@p. Only thing is to ignore it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,476 ✭✭✭Comic Book Guy


    JV reckons Mark will be mighty relieved to win this frame!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,329 ✭✭✭✭Hotblack Desiato


    So, in the best-of-five world final, Mark is 1-0 up :)

    Scrap the cap!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,280 ✭✭✭✭mdwexford


    Thank god for that.

    Maybe that will restore some confidence. Hard to win when you need at least two good chances every frame.


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

    You're being a knob. I'd say people here would probably rather chat about the snooker than talk about a topic that's been done over and over..

    Best final since.....can’t even remember. 2014 was very good but this is in another stratosphere.
