[KashifK]

Very interesting. Repeat of the '86 final. Also White v Thorburn should be very interesting.

[hegeland]

I would have liked a more fair draw. Thorburn v Taylor, Johnson v Parrott, Davis v White.

Good

the only thing i dont understand is Why is it limited to 9 players .

enough played at the qualifiers to have included them and make it a 16 man event like in 1991 where the likes of Mike Massey and Michael Ferreira played back then to make up the numbers.

[nevets]

Should be good. Anyone know the betting? I guess Ebdon is favourite yes?

[jw147]

joe johnsons 100-1, not a bad bet he can do it again, just like in '86

[darrus]

Well, so much for Ebdon being a favorite...
Rather unexpected result, I think. But well done Nigel Bond.

[nevets]

Hmm, I'm not sure about that, I think Davis still has revenge on his mind!

I aint got fancy sky, has it finished then i presume ??

He had his revenge in the 87 final..

Ain't got Sky either But anyway it's no use - they are going to show it recorded somewhere around Christmas, and no live broadcast it seems.

I was following the match on worldsnooker's livescore, and unless it was lying the final score is 2-0 to Bond.

[spike]

Not that much of a surprise in Bond beating Ebdon. Bond has as good as chance as anyone in winning this event..

[nevets]

He had his revenge in the 87 final..

Yeah do realise that but he'll still remember '86. Let's hope we get Davis-Taylor again!

[wildJONESEYE]

lets hope we dont or they will be talking about this for the next 20 years
