2014 World Championship - Discussion

Me too. Still gutted.

On another note, why on earth did the BBC let Neil Foulds go over to Eurosport. I'm not sure how much more of Steve Davis I can take. Love hm as a pundit/person in general, but as a commentator, just ARRGHHH!!

It's the incessant jabbering and pretentious style that irritates me so much. If he just spoke normally it wouldn't be so bad, but it's like you can hear his brain ticking over as he constructs his sentences; those annoying pauses in his delivery as he searches for clever ways to say something that's really very simple.

Couldn't agree more...my sentiments exactly And I wholeheartedly agree with others on this forum who find the BBC commentators obnoxious and at times disrespectful towards the players. They should tone it down quite a bit imo.

Amazing pot by Davis to keep in the match.

Just finished watching Walden's 137. Does anyone know if he was a boxer when he was younger? My coach (and most coaches) tell me to keep my chin tucked in. Walden head/chin on the cue looks like no other.

Him and Mark Allen are the top gurners lol.

The Dale match sounds like a belter.

I think it's inhumane they make you work when there's snooker on.

I got the Quarters, Semis and Final all off work.

I purchased a fridge pack of lagers from Tesco the other day. They're currently cooling in my fridge, ready to be opened when the snooker is on and I'm feeling thirsty.

It is. Getting a bit tense now. Dale is very close. Just needs a couple of more balls.

Good job (no pun intended). I'm off from work after tomorrow up until&including the Final. Just had to...last year I was getting mighty frustrated at work knowing I was missing out on some great matches

Btw I'll be by a bit later to have one of those lagers...

[cyberheater]

Davis requiring a snooker now.

EDIT:

Can't believe that yellow dropped in.
