Yes, Harmy. i guess no discussions needed. how deep can one sink?

i wonder what provisional ranking he has got now

GSC hasn't updated yet, I think we have to wait until the UK is over.

But a fine bottle it was, wasn't it?

Thanks for posting the draw!

Well, actually i wont toast on anyones misery.

On the draw. Top draw would see Murphy and Maguire as potential semi finalists and Ding as a surprise. Bottom draw anyones guess as all seem completely out of form!

Ding has played awesome stuff in the Premier League but hasn't produced in the ranking tournements so far this season so it will be interesting to see if he does do well, and I know what Paulthesoave is saying as its a different pressure in the ranking tournements. Anyway dingshot, are you nardiello?
Anyway, we'll see next week and i'm looking forward to the UK to start, there should be some great matches.

I agree he would be the main contender one year ago, but for the last 10 months he has not showed anything in a ranking tournament. His form (or mental attitude) has improved. Thats why i said he could be a surprise, although his display in the PL has sombered me a bit.
