:snooker: Snooker

Last Saturday I think

No that was the finish.

Theres no Finns in the final Brits, Chinese, Irish, some Europeans and an African.

Great match between Sean Murphy and Si.

Si taking a great deciding frame, really good viewing.

Just Stop Oil bods out at Parliament today

Are they playing snooker outside now? I suppose it’s a nice day.

I didn’t see the game, but Brecel won seven frames on the trot from 10-6 down to knock O’Sullivan out last night. Must have been quite a match.

Good player, that lad. I didn’t see it either but saw Selby beat Higgins and he’s looking very good.

Selby vs Allen is like pulling teeth. Allen’s in front, but he’s getting drawn in to Selby’s war of attrition type of play. They’ve just spent an hour and a half on two frames.

This a good example of why I don’t watch Snooker. I used to love playing when I was young but seldom get the opportunity these days.

The young Chinese lad Si is something else. Just 20 years old, he is already being hailed as possibly the best player ever. After watching him I wouldn’t disagree.

That’s a terrific match. Brecel pulling out some wonderful snooker to force his way back into it, in the face of some awful luck. Really looking forward to the rest of it.

Brecel about to level at 14-14.

Unbelievable comeback.

And it’s 6-0
Horrible defending from Wolves

Brecel takes ten frames on the trot, to lead 15-14. Incredible stuff.

I’ve given up on Selby/Allen. After the earlier match, this is just painfully slow and turgid. Selby’s on the brink of winning, but he’s been taking an aeon over every single fucking shot, and Allen has been nullified by the stultifying slowness of it. Shades of Eddie Charlton at his glacial worst, I’m watching MOTD instead.
