Has the words used by the idiot who got thrown out yesterday been confirmed or is it likely not to be revealed?

So a Higgins / Trump final. How dull.
I'm gutted for both of them - really wanted to see at least one of them in the final.
Nothing at all against Higgins, but I'll be rooting for Trump now."Kryten, isn't it round about this time of year that your head goes back to the lab for retuning?"Comment

So John Higgins becomes only the 5th man in the modern era (1969 onwards) to be in 3 succesive finals.
(Ray Reardon, Steve Davis, Stephen Hendry, Jimmy White are the others)Comment

A commentator mentioned something earlier this week that made a lot of sense because John was at the table and the frame was won but he said he will still give every shot 100% until the table is cleared and all the big names do that. They don't start slamming them in to get whoops from the crowd and always try to clear the table so that could make the difference with Higgins / Trump.
Just saw the interview with Gilbert and he looks like a really nice guy. I feel for him not making the final because he has been playing like a world champion. A big supporter of him now and hope to see him at an event so I can buy him a pint.Comment

Just so sorry for DG. I only hope the inbound cheque will make him feel a little better

It was a good match and we played with about 20 work colleagues watching at the bowling alley. We had both taken our cues so word started to spread that after bowling there was a pool match afoot. I won the first two with some good long pots and he took the next three so I lost 3-2 but it was a good game and he said he was feeling the pressureOriginally Posted by Cue crafty View PostYeh, I'm with you on that. I can never really enjoy seeing second rate snooker win just because some poor sod loses their bottle. No one likes to see it, that's no disrespect to John who is doing exactly what he should as a first rate pro.
It's a great reminder for me that the worlds is all about stamina and bottle. Talent too of course! But all these boys can play!
How's your pool by the way? Seem to remember you had a showdown with a young gun last year!
Considering I hadn't played for years and he played every week I was happy with that. He's a good player and I could tell he plays for a team but on a slow boat to China I think I could take him to school.
