2022 Turkish Masters

[Cue crafty]

yet the side tables look like the quintessential english institute of sport sheffield , barnsley metrodome etc , on the south coast of turkey , bit surreal.

The change is good and it's brilliant to see this nation host the event though.

Ah I got it now, Yan v Georgiou. Not showing in world snooker's live scores.

Murphy breezing through his match with Lyu 5 - 0. Maybe that'll give him a bit of confidence, which he seems to be lacking atm.

he's up against jimmy robertson next if robertson wins this , if robertson keeps his form up murphy will have to play very well to win , i'd view murphy as the underdog i think.

Murphy needs to string a few results together , the best thing he can do to improve his game is to lose significant weight and yes, the carpet it atrocious , like a 1950s Hollywood version of Ali Baba starring Tony Curtis

Just heard this story on Talksport about Milkins !

Sounds like the good old days of snooker

[Nifty50]

Wake up call for Milkins. Needs to cut back on the booze. The older you get the longer it takes to recover. Took me 3 days to get over an all day session for my 60th. Milkins did well to lose narrowly to Ding.

i was about to say i dont know why he continues getting sponsored and access to the facilities at the swsa , just googled seeing that isnt there anymore he does strike me as someone who was a bit lucky to become a snooker player , he can beat neil robertson two more times at the crucible as well i'd still think the same.

I have always liked Rob Milkins
Seems most of the newspaper articles were a bit exaggerated (surprise surprise )
On Twitter he clarifies that he was not on a drinking "marathon" but was only 2.5 hrs and; maybe it was travelling, dehydration, the heat, sun-stroke, whatever; and he came over all weird.

not the ned of the world

Nice to see many in the crowd standing ovation for Higgins' entrance - solid fans

I had not noticed anyone else (even Trump) getting such a reception

[trains]

another frame for si juahui , just checked yes he's one of the 16 amateurs entered into the world championships next month , i think most players will be hoping to avoid him haha.

My thoughts exactly Dean. Anyway, it got us in the news didn't it. Don't think I've heard a snooker related article on talk sport since the worlds. No such thing as bad press, so they say.

Thanks for posting the article Starsky.

what is it with michael holt , gives me no pleasure to say he's taking a beating again , just wished these players would start turning the tide a little

You know I like Holt as well trains, but at 43 I think his tide may well be turning, outwards.

personally i dont buy into the age thing pb , unless someone's health is patently obviously a factor , i'd just say that he isn't good enough , i'd never brazenly say that about anyone but it just seems a bit hard to get away from.
