Bully Wee Villa Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 On 26/11/2021 at 11:52, GiGi said: What are people's thoughts on BBC pieing the tournament until Saturday afternoon? They're becoming increasingly distanced from snooker and Eurosport keeps getting better IMO. They've always joined the UK Championship after the start. Previously it only had 64 players but each round had two sessions, BBC joined at last 32. Now BBC joins at last 64 after it starts in last 128, but all the early rounds are settled in one session. So pretty much the exact same amount of snooker shown. The only reduction in BBC coverage is the removal of the Grand Prix and that was at least a decade ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GiGi Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Vafaei was excellent. Needs to do what the likes of Thepchaiya didn't do and back it up in the next round. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Higgins can maybe feel hard done by but as you say, Zhao played very well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trackdaybob Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Only the two matches on according to the BBC. They really are letting their coverage slip lately. Or do they just not care? If they are reporting on the other two matches, I can't find it. There we go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have they ever live reported results from non-TV tables (or rather tables that they aren't televising)? I don't ever remember it. I'm not saying its right but (similar to the not showing the L128 thing) I don't think its really a sign of them slipping since its not any different to what they've been doing for years. If you click on the results tab at the top they still have all the scores. Edited November 30, 2021 by MrWorldwideJr 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer not to find out other results as they often show a match from the other table as "live" when the main match finishes early. Enjoying the number of shocks, if someone could just beat O'Sullivan, that half of the draw would be wide open.
