2023 World Championship

I see that this morning the BBC managed to find some hightlights of the Selby Allen match, three minutes of rolling into the pack before the re-rack

How the hell did the BBC manage to find 3 minutes of highlights
who ever gets through between Si and Brecel and if they face Slowby I hope they absolutely rinse him .

[neuronic]

That fluked red by Selby right there should never have dropped... that looked like something from a pool table

[Cue crafty]

What a contrast in these two SF matches, some of the Best snooker I've ever seen in one and the most boring I've ever had to witness in the other! 🙄

Ive seen quite a lot of balls in the semi final between Si and Brecel that didn’t drop that looked like they should have,works both ways .

I thought Allen could have clipped the red in from selby's miss, was worth taking on i think.

[Cue crafty]

Bad signs for Allen this morning, way off on a good few pots now. I'm sure all the negative play is affecting Marks potting.

Such a shame that a lot of the comments on here are so negative about Selby’s tactical play. Snooker isn’t just about super-aggressive potting and comments like “I hope whoever gets through from the other semi absolutely rinses him” shows a complete lack of understanding for the game of snooker. The tactical battles between players are fascinating for many of us and just seeing players bashing the balls around and leaving each other a chance (which has happened regularly in the Brecel-Si game), is not good snooker in my opinion.

That Welsh referee sitting on the stairs reminds me of Alex Higgins footage at the Northern Snooker Centre in the 70's.

A lot of them? Can we have two or three examples?

Very nice ton from Selby. Allen's really got to dig deep now.

Par for the course here mate. Once Ronnie gets knocked out all we get is wah wah wah! The irony is that all the negative comments come from those who complain most about negativity.

Selby taking the plant along the top cushion just lost him that frame. Should have played the negative safety instead.

I suppose you're not a fan of Ken Doherty's analysis either PB ? He's another you can describe with that from him just now. Not a criticism of yourself btw. Irresponsible and lazy from him imo.

[Odrl]

What did he say?
