2017 World Grand Prix

Why are they putting both the remaining quarters on plus the first semi final today? Why not just have both the semi finals tomorrow?

Could it mean that the second semi-final's going to be longer than the first?

I couldn't figure the planning out for this event most of the week.

It was hard to find a schedule before the days play.

I think the reason for the lack of a match is that there is a horse race on Saturday that itv4 are showing, I can't find or think of any other reason.

The scheduling for the snooker shoot out is the same, no play on Saturday afternoon which is weird as most people have the weekend off.

the WS Live Scores website tends to have the sessions listed ahead of time and sometimes even which "could" be on TV table.

That's tough - any way of whiling away a few hours in Preston on a Saturday afternoon?

There seems to be a heap of balls being potted by mistake in this tournament, more than usual.

Just throwing this question into the mix here, is anyone getting a little 'bored' of the same surroundings they play in? Sure, they are at the Guild Hall but it looks exactly the same set up as 80% of the tournaments and I sometimes forget which tournament I'm watching! Back in the day, each tournament looked like their own unique tournament because of the set around them. I just think its a bit of a dull look these days and well overused.

Have to agree with you there, some of the twaddle he comes out with makes me cringe - surely they could do better than him.

Come out of the guild hall, turn left, then left again at the end of the road, and twelve tellers is on the left, decent witherspoon pub with a great range of ales and craft beers.

Blimey Bazza! That was almost entertaining

love him!!!!

[Billy]

love him!!!!

He has a wonderful tone, but his stat-waffling and terrible puns upset me.

I have no idea who did the scheduling for this Fu - King match, definitely not a fan.

I see what you did there

[jonny66]

I see what you did there

Even Mark King saw it, after Fu's match winning break "That was a Fu - King good break mate" :biggrin-new:
