I'd be careful if I were you...don't wanna get sucked into an argument with the Selby haters...it's no use, don't even try...total waste of your time&energy. These people do not understand anything about snooker.

I think I'll take your advice on that one mate.

Hi folks, I was just watching the Selby match and the ref should of called a free ball, because it clearly was a free ball. Mark Selby was not in the wrong there the referee was.

It looked like a free ball from the camera angle, but Leo was right behind the line of the shot, perhaps we'll see a still frame from hawkeye, but will they show it if it proves a ref wrong?

I never knew that, White is having a pop at everything now, decider alert.

Yeah...until White missed another easy red...incredible really. Still could turn out a decider...I hope so.

Nope, because he does it a lot. Pot a red and lay a snooker. I'm perfectly aware it is not against the rules but hopefully some people agree it lacks in panache a little bit.

Right then, in that situation what do you think Selby should of done ehh ?????????????????????

The camera never showed the angle so how do you know ???

[scottley]

referees are miked for tv matches and also Referees never whisper any call as a calls must be cloud enough to be heard by both players

Jeez...........

I only expect him to show a little bit of class at times just like anyone, anything wrong with it? Yeah I don't want him to win this tournament and I don't miond being called a hater just for that. I know a lot of people around here feel the same with Ding just because he's chinese and Maguire just because of his temper. Haven't seen them ever being called haters though.

Whoa there fella who doesn't want Ding to win because he's Chinese? That's a big statement.

So because he played a snooker it means he doesn't have any class?

I never heard Leo call a free ball, but i assumed he had perhaps whispered it to him and the camera had'nt picked the sound up or summat? Very strange indeed.
