World Champ. 2009 -2nd round discussion!

[superaussie]

solid start robbo not at his best but 5-3 is good

definetely better than the first session of his 2nd round match last season

[LarrahRobertson]

GO GO GO ROBBO!!!
I went to my usual Saturday training at 2 - 1 for Neil, I took my dad's phone and used his internet (damn, I want net on my cell too) and I would check the result on every 10 min... I was pretty satisfied!

I think that if Neil wins the first frame tomorrow, Ali is gonna be very nervous and I'm not sure how the result is gonna be in the end.
Congrats to Mark Allen, playing fantastic today!!!

Ronnie and Allen's post match interview:

why do most players take a short break every 2 frames or so??

All that water they keep drinking whenever they return to their seats... it just has to go at some point, you know

Great stuff from John there, and good steal from Cope too. Enjoying this one a lot!

one is going to the players lounge to cry out his delight "Yes! Yes!" etc.
the other one goes out to bang his head against the wall.

John is clearly showing he's up for a 3rd World Champion title. Little extra motivation from the fact Ronnie is out it seems!

[khizzy]

its turning out to be a great match.

Those two black girls on the first row really need to cheer up.

They are always there and always look like they are bored. The guy who wears football shirts all the time is also there every session, and so is the obese guy with the goofy haircut (sorry if you are a member here).

Yeah, my dad alway notices the coventry city football shirt guy!
The one with the haircut - is he the one that was in the news last year for the amount of snooker matches he'd seen?

[Alex0paul]

This Higgins performance is a carbon copy of his second round matches in 2005 and 2008. Starts of like a train then all of a sudden starts to really struggle.

He wears all kinds of shirts, I think one day I even saw him wear a Dundee Utd. shirt. I didn't read about the other guy, but he might be the one who was in the news as he seems to be *always* there, usually the same seat.

[superaussie]

does anyone know if king has ever beaten maguire before ?

thanks in advance

They will never cheer up because i saw them on O'Sulivan-Bingham match wearing t-shirts saying that they love Ronnie
