  • Hello all!

    I've enjoyed the UK Championship so far this yeah. Very diverse sessions throughout, we've seen dramatic long battles and also complete blowouts.

    The final has been incredible so far. Robbo's 147 was amazing, but I'm still rooting for Liang Wenbo!

      Oh I think there's only one Liang Wembo, but luckily he's ours. I remember that absolute classic match between him and Joe Swail in the 2008? World Championship, and hoping then we'd see a lot more of him but it never really happened. Well he's in the top 16 now so maybe he'll push on, I hope so.

      I still think Neil's a bit too strong for him in this one, but, you never know. Great final so far either way.

      All of us, glorious parts of the whole!

      • Spot the three, tanked-up pish-heads on the players' walk-ons. I hope they behave themselves as they're right on the front row.

          • I think it's been closer than the score suggests.

            • This is the most memorable UK Championship for long time. Plenty of final frame deciders and now a 147. Neil Robertson is pure class to beat his own 145 with that display in a final but this is still a close match.

              I admit I didn't know anything about Liang and was starting to think he was a bit cocky and arrogant but after seeing him being interviewed I saw someone who is passionate and not afraid to talk about their feelings. I really liked that about him and he also said his wife is in the audience tonight so I wish him good luck tonight. I don't have a favorite out of them so just want a good match.

                  Well regarding the controversy in the final frame what are refs paid for,as The Outlaw said ' When you are out there you are all scrambled',shame that 2008 match isn't on youtube,if this goes to about 16 frames I don't think too many can complain :-)

                          • What a slow-burner this is...the tension is incredible. Chances galore, and as many missed. I am loving it!
