Lisowski`s doing well to still be hanging on, like the T-1000 to the back of a car. PS. Williams must have been inspired by the Clockwork Angels t-shirt on a guy in the front row. I have to look for that. So far, I've only noticed the Suomi guy. Back to Lisowski, I'd like him a lot more if he didn't remind me of Roman Polanski. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tough to beat Higgins, even if John is put off by the lookalike. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IbanezJem Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 I`m concerned that Ronnie has to play two from Trump or Bingham or Williams. Somebody should do something about it. I can remember them all beating him in the recent past, and Ronnie hasn`t hit his straps in the last two rounds despite easy wins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IbanezJem Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Well, that could be a perfectly agreeable two days of snooker. I think it`s only fair that RoS equals Hendry`s seven titles. Even his family wouldn`t want him to beat Ronnie, I`m sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warsaw may be drooling over the team's relegation prospects, but they will be hit in the pocketbook. Not to mention the 12K supporters in the stands, as opposed to 3K in other parts of the country. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see that the Scottish FA have signed their rights away to Nordic streaming service Viaplay from 2024. I`m not sure I`d create a business model based around viewers snapping up a subscription for Celtic vs Rangers x4. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could be a proper contender if he keeps up the mental effort, just like the transformation Trump needed to make in order to win the big matches. Higgins and Williams and Ronnie all together; it`s just like 1992 all over again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On balance, it`s a good thing I didn`t get that massive Bielsa sleeve, chest and back tattoo after all. And Williams may reflect on the unlikeliness of clawing back a 1-7 or indeed 2-9 deficit. Hopefully Ronnie can restore some sanity, some sort of order to the madness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
