teeny (teeny), Sunday, 8 February 2004 22:37 (twenty years ago) link

like, long?

t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Sunday, 8 February 2004 22:38 (twenty years ago) link

they saw me and thought 'heeey!'

stevem (blueski), Sunday, 8 February 2004 22:39 (twenty years ago) link

and o'sullivan kinda looks like nick cave.

teeny (teeny), Sunday, 8 February 2004 22:41 (twenty years ago) link

uuu-mmm... not quite

t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Sunday, 8 February 2004 22:43 (twenty years ago) link

sorry, I'm just peeved they don't carry this in america.

teeny (teeny), Sunday, 8 February 2004 22:44 (twenty years ago) link

oh, it's now 9:7 to o'mullivann...

t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Sunday, 8 February 2004 22:47 (twenty years ago) link

I've not watched snooker for a while. What's happened to O'Sullivan's bowlcut?

Also these are a couple of sexy shits, eh?

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 22:54 (twenty years ago) link

I mean, I imagine someone making smartass comments, esp about the blond one...

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 22:56 (twenty years ago) link

But if it was a foul leading to a free-ball in some dim alleyway, I bet you'd force him to play again, eh?

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 22:57 (twenty years ago) link

Whatever.

They're both pretty great.

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 22:57 (twenty years ago) link

Ew. Hunter looks about twelve and has one of David Beckhams's old haircuts. This does not sexy make :(

(xpost)

O'Sullivan's post-therapy interviews are a mind-boggling wonder of pop-psychology-speak (well, the only one I saw this week anyway).

ailsa (ailsa), Sunday, 8 February 2004 22:59 (twenty years ago) link

...9:8 now, with 18th under way

t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:00 (twenty years ago) link

Ain't that entertainment -- 9:9, uhhhhh!

t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:29 (twenty years ago) link

That was some red, eh?

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:42 (twenty years ago) link

This could be Hunter's chance now, I reckon.

ailsa (ailsa), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:44 (twenty years ago) link

We should commentate. You be Willie Thorne.

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:44 (twenty years ago) link

I'm thingy from the Jim Davidson show. With the beard.

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:45 (twenty years ago) link

I don't think Hunter can win the frame at this visit.

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:45 (twenty years ago) link

What will he do here?

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:45 (twenty years ago) link

Not bad. Nothing left on here.

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:46 (twenty years ago) link

Lots of balls near the cushions (I'm plagiarising here).

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:46 (twenty years ago) link

What does that mean, Willie?

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:47 (twenty years ago) link

WHAT A MISS!

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:47 (twenty years ago) link

HE'S LEFT IT!

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:47 (twenty years ago) link

MATCH-WINNING CHANCE!

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:47 (twenty years ago) link

THE BLONDE GIRL COVERS EYES!

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:48 (twenty years ago) link

NEEDS A KISS! HE'S GOT THE KISS!

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:48 (twenty years ago) link

Well done that kid :)

ailsa (ailsa), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:48 (twenty years ago) link

paul wins.

Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:48 (twenty years ago) link

IT'S OVER!

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:48 (twenty years ago) link

RONNIE'S "BIT HIS TIP OFF"!

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:49 (twenty years ago) link

SEXY SHITS!

Eyeball Kicks (Eyeball Kicks), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:50 (twenty years ago) link

Is Paul Hunter the guy who always goes on about shagging his girlfriend in the mid-session breaks?

(xpost - that "biting off his tip" made me laugh a bit. New relaxed therapied Ronnie seemed to not care at all that he lost)

ailsa (ailsa), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:50 (twenty years ago) link

a helluva mutha of a match

t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:52 (twenty years ago) link

He looks like N. had N. been at the peroxide.

(he has just made a reference to shagging his woman)

ailsa (ailsa), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:53 (twenty years ago) link

haha well the first time he won this (against fergal o'brien) he was 6-2 behind in the break and he did let out post-match interview that his manager allowed his gf in the dressing room in the break (he won that match 10-9). I'm not sure whether they did it again today, think he was joking this time because he didn't play badly, just that ronnie was perfect in that first session (paul hunter won those two frames with century breaks).

Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Sunday, 8 February 2004 23:58 (twenty years ago) link

two months pass...
revive!

Go on ronnie!!! He's just won the first four frames of the second session in 42 mins (he so totally deserves to be called 'the rocket').

two eighty breaks and a century and he's 10-2 up.

Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Friday, 30 April 2004 13:44 (twenty years ago) link

I wish i was at home watching this :(

Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Friday, 30 April 2004 13:45 (twenty years ago) link

I wish I was home tomorrow to keep watching this.

t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Friday, 30 April 2004 20:54 (twenty years ago) link

Real pleasures of watching snooker revealed:

Heh heh heh.

William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Friday, 30 April 2004 21:08 (twenty years ago) link

john parrot gets bitterer every year! i'm lovin dott's spoiler style, a final with him and ronnie might be fascinating. alternatively dott might get utterly blown away but hey

prima fassy (mwah), Friday, 30 April 2004 21:36 (twenty years ago) link

Dott'd be that much of an outsider that maybe... just, maybe...

And why has Dominic Dale suddenly vanished from the commentary team? Dennis Taylor is starting to irk me a bit...

Worst thing about Parrott - his tips segment, where he teaches Stan Boardman to play snooker. Fucking hell.

William Bloody Swygart (mrswygart), Friday, 30 April 2004 21:40 (twenty years ago) link

dott has a small throat.

'when I won the championship back in 1991...'

come on hendry.

YEAH I SAID IT.

cozen (Cozen), Saturday, 1 May 2004 06:18 (twenty years ago) link

dennis taylor + john parrott are ok.

john virgo must die. he'd whinge even if he goes to heaven "ooh that's not that cloud i'd put myself on.."

ian mccolloch should have won, or david gray.

ken c (ken c), Saturday, 1 May 2004 07:25 (twenty years ago) link

o'sullivan just finished hendry off 17-4. I quite like to see Dott in the final but it may not matter who gets there.

O'sullivan has rarely got it consistently together, playing to his full potential as he has in the last two rounds, blowing away anthony hamilton and hendry with a session to spare.

Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Saturday, 1 May 2004 10:02 (twenty years ago) link

: (

this boy's good.

cozen (Cozen), Saturday, 1 May 2004 11:25 (twenty years ago) link

Does anyone else think Hazel Irvine the finest woman on Earth?

Not Steve Davis, Saturday, 1 May 2004 13:02 (twenty years ago) link

Oh, for crying out loud, Dott-Stevens just went off the air at 16-15 with just four balls left on the table and an immense safety battle developing in frame 32. I was watching the live coverage on BBCi (ch701 on Freeview) when a message appeared "This interactive service is coming to an end, press [TEXT] to exit." WTF?! They'd never do this on a main analogue channel. I note the BBC website also appears to be down.

Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Saturday, 1 May 2004 15:51 (twenty years ago) link

Yeah, crazy climax

Bitchin Doutai (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 5 May 2024 21:22 (yesterday) link

heist

LaMDA barry-stanners (||||||||), Sunday, 5 May 2024 21:22 (yesterday) link

Final might've peaked here I thinm

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 5 May 2024 21:23 (yesterday) link

At least it was a bit of a match

xyzzzz__, Sunday, 5 May 2024 21:24 (yesterday) link

Jak has won 2/3 frames this morning

xyzzzz__, Monday, 6 May 2024 13:09 (two hours ago) link

Bad break off, Kyren clears up. 13-8

If they share the next four probably won't be worth watching tonight

xyzzzz__, Monday, 6 May 2024 13:22 (two hours ago) link

if Virgo does his "where's the cue ball going?" shtick one more time i'm putting my foot thru the TV

Bitchin Doutai (Noodle Vague), Monday, 6 May 2024 13:56 (one hour ago) link

Just not convinced by Kyren. Should've made Jak pay for a stupid pink. Didn't. 13-9

xp - Virgo is such a cunt. Also just shouts stuff. Peolple witb headphones in the audience just laugh at this nonsense.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 6 May 2024 13:57 (one hour ago) link

i would say neither of these lads has shown consistent mental resilience in the final but here we are

Bitchin Doutai (Noodle Vague), Monday, 6 May 2024 14:01 (one hour ago) link

Yeah probably the worst quality final since Dott - Ebdon

xyzzzz__, Monday, 6 May 2024 14:05 (one hour ago) link

big frame for Jones that

Bitchin Doutai (Noodle Vague), Monday, 6 May 2024 14:12 (one hour ago) link

Yup. Could've easily been 15-8. Its 13-10

xyzzzz__, Monday, 6 May 2024 14:13 (one hour ago) link

Find it hard to fully get behind someone called Jak tbh.

I've left the box of soup near your shoes (Tom D.), Monday, 6 May 2024 14:18 (one hour ago) link

Kyren in first again..

xyzzzz__, Monday, 6 May 2024 14:21 (one hour ago) link

14-10. Jak surely has to win this final frame of the session

xyzzzz__, Monday, 6 May 2024 14:34 (forty-eight minutes ago) link

Oh dear. Jak is done I think. Black off the spot

xyzzzz__, Monday, 6 May 2024 14:50 (thirty-two minutes ago) link

Had another chance. Missed the yellow. Fucking shit really.

Kyren is a v lucky man.

xyzzzz__, Monday, 6 May 2024 14:54 (twenty-seven minutes ago) link

it’s GGs
