I believe this 23 World Campaign reflects the initial crumbling of the Class of 92. I cannot see O Sullivan , Williams or Higgins ever lifting a World trophy again. Age has finally caught up with them at the fine edge of endurance 17 day WC grinds. I hope I am wrong though. Saw Ronnie almost visibly ageing . Selby appears quite tired also but I believe he might have one last sting in the tail. Mark Allen will be WC in 23 I believe but would I love to see Si winning it.? Most Certainly !

Williams will plod on without regret or bother until he decides to call it a day, Higgins has put on weight again so obviously doesn't care anymore, I for one won't miss him but once Ronnie quits that will probably be it for me, not because I'm a superfan or anything but simply because the game has changed too much from what it was, we've seen it all now due to modern conditions and snooker will inevitably die because of that.
Mikee can claim all he likes about the pockets being tight but I don't see it, balls are dropping left right and centre off the jaws and once you catch a glimpse of the ariel view you can see how they are shaped to collect balls that are not accurate enough to drop on the tables in my club. The fact that world snooker do not allow their pocket templates to be used by anyone else tells me that they're hiding something, we all should be allowed to have the same conditions.Speak up, you've got to speak up against the madness, you've got speak your mind if you dare
but don't try to get yourself elected, for if you do you'll have to cut your hair

Really enjoying this match with Si and Luca, a throwback to White v Hendry but Si knows the pockets are generous and is playing accordingly.Speak up, you've got to speak up against the madness, you've got speak your mind if you dare

Wonder how Si would have fared with tighter pockets? He does pot a lot of dead in the centre but against McGill there was quite a few crucial ones which shouldn’t have gone in. Was the same against Murphy. I suppose the counter argument is that the pockets are the same for both players.
Cant see him beating Selby but hope he does. Still to get past Brecel though. Wouldn’t be too upset with a Chinese World Champion.
