Is it just us Scots that don't like him? I must admit his constant whining of the game is pretty tiresome, nobody is forcing him to play. Certainly got pumped today. Never understood the hero worship. There are certainly geniuses in other sports who don't get as much adulation for being complete knobs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiGi Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 If you ever wonder if it's you who's wrong for hating Ronneh, just look at the people who love him and be at peace. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karpaty Lviv Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 It’s the fact that he’ll just come out and say he isn’t bothered about being shagged 6-0 and everything it fine because he says the same when he’s winning. Just chuck it then if he’s not bothered and clearly hates snooker, he clearly doesn’t need the money. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hearthammer Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Alan McManus has morphed into Michael Stewart as a co-commentator this tournament. He's meant to assist the main commentator with "expert" input on various shots, but he's been drawling on incessantly, over-elaborating on the shots and still discussing his points two or three shots on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He likes the cash and having something to do when he wakes up in the morning. Even if he sometimes can't be fucked with a game. The fact he can half arse it a lot of the time and still be world number 1 is a problem for the rest of the guys. He has been in the top 16 except for his flirtation with retirement in 2013. The field just isn't good enough to put him on his sofa. Same reason Higgins has been able to hang around. 1 hour ago, Bully Wee Villa said: Only one winner now. just tuned in. who is going to win? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiGi Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 It's turned from a procession for Ding into a procession for Allen into what's now a really cagey match. Which probably suits Ding at this point to halt the momentum. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiGi Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Allen is the man of the season. British open final followed by winning the NI open and the UK. Losing all that weight will have been so much harder than anything he'll do on the snooker table so he must just feel like he can do anything now. They've all got the shots but the difference in the top players is what's going on upstairs. Allen has suffered with that plenty so well done to him. Deserves this success. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trackdaybob Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Nobody following the Home Nations then? Can't think why I chose to watch it last night. And it's on again right now. Higgins up against it the now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
