[QUOTE=dannyd0g;280054]The only tone suitable for a reply to this is a Wity or Atthebookies tone - so - What rubbish ! How long have you been following snooker ! ? Since the w/c last year i bet.

Everyone has right for an opinion. My self included. I'm following snooker for 14 years now, probably I've watched more matches on TV than you have, even though you are 9 years older than me.

Good morning
Yesterday I was very tired and asleep in the middle of the match Selby vs Fu
This morning I understand result , nice
There is some exciting moments ?

[matoski]

I fall a sleep on the last frame. It was pretty scrappy, lasted for more than one hour, almost broke the record for longest frame on TV.

My laptop stopped working last night, so I missed this historic event
But I would probably also have fallen asleep, tired as I was.

[Anastasia]

Then I am not the only who is asleep yesterday

they did break the record. and that frame was far more interesting to watch than the previous longest one

Of course not! I fell asleep too . Woke up just in time to hear our commentator saying that Fu ended up conceding the frame so Selby was through. So it lasted more than an hour the frame ?

You at least woke up in time but me this morning

The frame lasted some 77 mins and this is the longest frame ever on TV. The pair Ebdon-Dott is beaten ... let's hope they don't want a revenge!
Selby stated with some humour that of course it's a record, but not necessarily the type of record he's dreaming of to highlight his career (not his exact words that I don't remember, but the spirit of it)

[Nina]

I don't know if it's just me, but this is the first time in a long time that a tournament is turning out a way I like. Good matches, good players advancing (I admit it, I prefer it when players I already know make it to the final). Looking forward to the grand finale!

[Anastasia]

77 mins lol this is really LONG frame .Yes let's hope Ebdon-Dott don't want a revenge!

[Caroline]

I like Ebdon also.

It's a fact that some players even though they perform greatly, don't have charisma. Peter Ebdon is a great player, but still no one likes him.

[Anastasia]

I like Ebo too , hi have charisma . This is question of taste .

[PaulTheSoave]

I respect him as a good player, but he is not my preferred player to watch. After the world final has been enough for me.

[The Statman]

Unlucky Fu, well played Selby and always a pleasure to watch. It's good to have someone like Selby on the circuit because he breaks such a tense situation. I loved it when he motioned towards the skies and where he had a fit when he thought the cue ball didn't reach the brown when he tried the snooker.



Great quality and all rounded player. I'll be wanting him or Rodders to win. It's evident that one of them will win anyway since they're facing each other but I believe Ronnie's got the upper hand, especially at this form he's showing. He probably kicked himself for how poorly he played against Holt.

The other thing I particularly liked with Selby was that after such a gruelling match (and frame) he signed many autographs for what must have been a good five minutes (when the coverage finished) and looked like he was in no hurry to stop.
