2014 World Championship - Discussion

[Kargetina]

Damn!So close on both occasions...he'll get it in the next match but still...that black.

Would be great to see , not sure it would ever get beaten .

And as for Willie Thorne.......how many times can he say the word 'Flawless' in 4 frames .......think of a new word please !!!

When I heard the last "flawless" snooker comment, I recalled this message and it put a smile on my face, really.

[DeanH]

apologies to those who lip read for NR's reaction to the red not dropping

[Billy]

Phew! At least I can go out now.

[cyberheater]

What an amazing break builder Neil is.

Well done Neil.

I cringed when he invited the crowd to give Neil a standing ovation for the 100 100s.

Willie is, by some margin, the worst snooker commentator the BBC employ. It's emphasized when you have a legend like Hendry in the box with him who can offer some fantastic insights but he can't get a word in.

I think they call that ' Verbal Diahorrea '

"I knew it would happen, I knew it would happen". Shut up Willie, you know nothing.

True, but how many is Robertson ahead of the next person down even just this season?

Not denying that he has had a marvelous season in that sense, but it's not 90s or early 2000s anymore, when a 50-century season was a devastating success.
I don't know. I'm too much of an old school lover to give credit to younger generations, anyway.

Ding on 60-something, that is a 30+ gap, very impressive
Even with the amount of tournament now, I still think it is an achievement to be made a note of.

[The Statman]

Agreed. They play so many tournaments thesedays anyway.

[Erwan_BZH]

Can't believe he missed that black......awful feeling! I hope he'll get it the next frame, he's already amongst the balls!

[rich45]

Don't get all this fuss over a century of centuries, to be honest.

Agreed. They play so many tournaments thesedays anyway.

[Billy]

Wah wah uum!!

I'm going to end up having to record this, I know it!!
