Not used it CC but occasionally have a read at the most recent comments. You sometimes see something interesting. Never been tempted to sign up. TSF is fine for me.

^^ #27 I read the comments and have posted on it before, a lot of the posters give me the sense that they're ' gamer keyboard ' snooker types, at least it's alive though, and its a good site to check the rankings and calendar.

Yes noted Trains, nice to see “activity” but kinda agree on the majority of what I have read too.

Yeh I’m not keen on signing up either, don’t like the necessary tick boxes, I’m one of those who reject all cookies on each site I visit for news stories etc.

Didn't bother going up to Leicester, no reason just didn't bother.
I like the fact that it's fairly equidistant in England though.

Thanks Steven Hallworth in your yt commentary for mentioning the idea though.

David Gilbert really is a product of his environment, nothing remotely against him personally though.

Leclercq could be better as well though, hope i've got those letters in order right.

[trains]

Thats a lot of good match ups Dean, ta.

[itsnoteasy]

Some crackers in that draw.

Xintong is going to take some stopping if he carries on like he played today against Walden who was top of his game himself until the last frame when the pressure told.
It might depend on the reaction of the crowd coming back from a ban, forgive and forget or will there be some boos ?

Yeah i get ya, always seems something missing with Walden though, maybe he should run another NY marathon ?

Xintong's on the Q tour as well so he's got some folks prepping him up too.

Shaun Murphy certainly won't be welcoming given he suggested players should be banned for life.

[itsnoteasy]

Murphy has said, to paraphrase him, he's done his time let's welcome him back and move on.

[trains]

Seemingly belated statement win for Lei Peifan after he topped the Q School oom a few years ago then went awol.

Prefer Stan Moody to win this evening just for the tv presentation, Hazel Irving talking to and presenting the young Stan, nothing against his opponent though.

Not likely Murphy to contradict himself.

Ahh, so he must be from the "right"background....makes sense for a social climber.
