Ronnie V John Higgins

[Blondie]

Hi,

............and what a great game yesterday between Ron and Robbo.

And can't wait now for Ron and Higgy, two great players, battling it out.

Thinking back, maybe Ron has a bit more to prove here as well with Higgy, if we look back to both the 2005 Grand Prix, plus 2006 Masters Final. Higgy is playing well though, and looking very relaxed, so can't wait.

Another great match to look forward to.

What do you think?

Higgins seems in better form than Ronnie, at the moment, but both can prove deadly. This could be the final of this tournament.

But Selby might have something to say about that.

...at least Ronnie has his head on and seems to be more than eager to go all the way. I think this spirit will just get him through.
And yes Selby looks promising to me as well and who knows, maybe this could even finally be Matthew's year (of course he'll have to oust Murphy first...)

Hi Elvaago,

........I agree, and must admit I forgot about Selbo, he is playing really well too...

Hi Snooks,

.............I agree that Ron is up for it, and hopefully his spirit will see him through....

[RaNeN]

I do not think Higgins will be able to get past Ronnie.
Come on Ronnie!!!

... I forgot about Selbo...

Is that his nickname? How cruel!!!

The match surely will be a cracker. It's so good that it starts today and we don't have to wait for it another few days (like we had to with Ronnie and Robertson).

Come on Higgins, someone needs to stop ronnie...

Come on Ronnie!!!

Hi RaN,

..............In my 'heart of hearts' I agree, and would love this to be the case, but as Higgy is playing so well, think it maybe a close one, but very exiciting

And another 'Come on Ronnie' from me as well...

[Ekphantos]

That's a difficult one... both have played well so far... I think it's going to be a close one, I am keeping my fingers crossed for Higgins

[Skypigeon]

Come on Higgins, someone needs to stop ronnie...

He'll do it Q,..haven't seen him play this well since 2005...MTFH!!

Hi Ag,

..........tee hee, great nickname, and must admit I do this with most people, and no doubt mine will be shortened to Blondo..

.......and can't wait for the match to start either... x

[Q Ball]

People may struggle to shorten "Q"....lol

[Blondie]

Hi Joe,

...............and thanks for 2 pms, and enjoy the match. and how about
'q'.......lol.xx

[Maija]

People may struggle to shorten "Q"....lol

People are obsessed with shortening names! I don't really understand why people shorten Maija, though... it's not as if it takes ages to type and it is already a shorter version of my name. Oh well.

John or Ronnie? JOHN! (That came as a huge shock I am sure.) John is really playing oh so well right now, that technical problem he mentioned that he has been struggling with since December is gone, he is really flying out there. Ronnie is not there yet - his long potting is off, his safety play is a bit on the Hawaiian side. That having been said, I think he'll really be up for the match, maybe finally having to dig deeper than 60%

MTFH!
