World Championship discussion

[JPK123]

Hazel Irvine just said this about Joe Delaney on the BBC: "A career journeyman with a happy go lucky outlook, he is a throwback to the so-called characters of the 1980s and enjoys a jar or three."

Ring any bells?

Great comeback from Bond. 4-0 down now its 4-4.

McCulloch goes 5-4 up

Both McCulloch and Bond are up 5-4!

That should teach me NEVER to go shopping whilst snooker's on...

[snookersfun]

thanks Robert! efficient as usual!

[Skypigeon]

Yeah Robert I've tried to re-name it several times without success..so thanks!

[missneworleans]

Lol both are shocking results, as players, what are losing looked more solid at the start of the match
Dott is nervous, c'os he's defending champion, and McCulloch made his minimum and plays with liberation, the same I can say about other match

BTW afternoon session started

Surely this is the 31st year that the tournament has been held at the Crucible not the 30th? Its starting to confuse me now.

[hegeland]

It's the 31st tournament to be held at the Crucible. But it's been held there for 30 years now.

[snookersfun]

good start for Matthew 2-0!

[Alex0paul]

If Joe doesn't get a frame on the board soon he could start to get embarrassed and he will probably get steamrolled. I never like seeing this so hopefully he can get the odd frame or 3 for peace of mind.

[snookerlass]

A good start for Matthew 3-0

[Alex0paul]

I am really starting to feel sorry for Joe now. He really looks uncomfortable out there.

[Marc]

He got a warning because he conceded the frame when there were sufficient enough points on the table to win.
