World Championship 2006

Ronnie tied 4-4. Great to hear that he made a 140 break. Was it a 147 or was it a 140c?

[cueman]

it was a 140 clearence. I gather you aren't getting coverage where you are? He is behind after the second session 9-7 and Day looks like he will pull off a famous victory. Ronnie has struggled at times in this match, good in the balls but his safety and long potting aren't what it should be.

[RaNeN]

I dont think Day has it in him to beat Ronnie. I am still backing Ronnie.

[cueman]

Day might get a bit nervous but I think he's experienced enough to handle the situation. Ronnie has to start off on fire tonight otherwise he's going out.

[RaNeN]

Has the match started already? Whats the score? Come on Ronnie!!!!!


(In case Ronnie is out , I can bet Mark Williams is gonna win it this year!)

[Erwan_BZH]

Ronnie is leading 12-10 for the moment. He really seemed to have stepped up to clinch the victory.

[RaNeN]

Damn it! Couldnt watch the match! I am sure it must have been a great last session!

[RaNeN]

Ronnie wins 13-10..............yay..........come on Ronnie!!!

It's quarter final day! A lot of exciting matches coming up!

I'm delighted that Ronnie made it to a QF encounter with Mark Williams. That will certainly be some match!

The Dott-Robertson match could also be quite interesting. The Aussie seems to be in good shape. Incredible long potting meets cunning safety play....

As for Doherty-Fu: I think it won't be too hard for Doherty. But then it's the Crucible so maybe a surprise exit there???

Which leaves us with the last QF, Murphy-Ebdon: I sincerely hope that eurosport will be showing as little of it as possible. I don't like Ebdon but against Smurphy all I can say is: COME ON PSYCHO!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pat39]

I agree that Doherty looks to have the easiest quarter final. The other 3 are harder to predict but I shall go for Ebdon, Robertson and Williams to beat O'Sullivan in a classic.

[RaNeN]

I judt dont know why all the people in the world think Williams is gonna beat Ronnie? Williams I feel has very little chance against Ronnie.


If Williams wins its only gonna be because Ronnie has some problem with the cue.

Come on Ronnie.......show everybody in the world what you can do in snooker!

[cueman]

I think Williams is favourite because he won in China and Ronnie is still struggling for form. OK Ronnie won yesterday but I think Day had enough chances to get the win, I expect that Williams given the same chances would have won.
Apparantly Ronnie is not happy with his tip (there's a surprise!). If he is still not happy with it Williams will probably win the match.

[RaNeN]

Whats wrong with his tip??? Why dosent he change it?

[RaNeN]

Just checked the score it 4-4 at the break. I still think Ronnie will beat Mark.
Am happy looks like Murphy is gonna get kicked out of the championship in the last 8. Ebdon leading 6-0 at the mo.

[RaNeN]

Just read this at the BBC website.
"O'Sullivan, who has had problems with his tip throughout the tournament, looked distant at times and was warned for bad language in frame three."
What bad language did he use? and why?
