2014 World Championship - Discussion

[scottley]

He's not got time for snooker these days

[nicklowry12]

Tom Ford got off to a good start in this session but since then the standard has been pretty poor from both players, does anyone agree? anyone who makes this many mistakes against Ronnie won't have a very good time (I didn't see Ronnie's first match so I don't actually know what kind of form he's in)

[scottley]

What a positional shot from pink to black by Trump, at least Ford has found his focus now, and he's starting to go through the gears

[rich45]

Sorry but Tom Ford is never going to make it to the top, despite having a lot of talent. He doesn't have the temperament at all. Bag of nerves.

[robertmac]

Ford and Trump are trying to give the other the frame. Poor
shooting at the moment. Hope it improves drastically.

[Chappy5]

Dammit,

7-5 at the Interval Trumps way after Tom missed a tight cut to pot the Pink ball and win the frame. Trump took advantage and now needs only 3 frames to win the match.

Hoping Tom can lift and anyones match still.

Neither of them have had a break over 65 in this match so far. I think ronnies odds will be shortening even more. nobody's playing anywhere close to beating him. hoping Robertsons on form to give him a match in the final lol.

[scottley]

Some shocking stuff in this match, i've seen better down the social club.

[rich45]

Finally got over the line. Even if it goes 9-9 though, can't see Ford holding himself together. Compare him to Wasley the other day against Ding and it is chalk and cheese.

[nicklowry12]

I used the term "pretty poor" in my last post, more like absolutely terrible, what is going on

[robertmac]

Once this horrible match is over I sure hope the remaining
ones feature some great snooker.

[scottley]

If it does go close they will get pulled off before it finishes i reckon, they're already a frame behind schedule from yesterday remember, and neither player looks like they've got a one visit frame winning break in them.

I thought Fu was pretty good yesterday. Could play him in the quarter-finals, but has to get past Murphy first, and he doesn't exactly have a great record against Murphy. :smile:

Good stuff from Hawkins this morning as well, but he was allowed to get into a good scoring rhythm by Gilbert wasting so many chances early on.

Trump is making hard work of things at the moment. The bottom quarter looked like the strongest one this year, but I think Robertson is not too concerned by what he's seen from his potential opponents so far. I just hope he doesn't struggle as well... :smile:

[P.Smith]

omg a frame winning break.

LOL, like the pressure of the crucible can be compared to playing in the local club with a few blokes watching on a table with buckets for pockets!
