In the studio theres a table which they use for some shots with a horribly made cue on it, it keeps moving but nothing else does.....its driving us mad.

John Higgins was 10 frames in front of Mark Allen in there semi-final and look how well Allen did to get back into the match.
If Mark Allen can do it there is no reason Murphy cant either. As long as Shaun still has the self belief that's half the battle.

True thats what I'm fully expecting, I know he'll come back. The only question is by how many and for how long?

that thing
It moves around the table after every frame for some reason... yet the balls stay in the same place..
I've seen davis do demonstrations with the cue on the table some years... not this one!

Will give you the answer to that after it's all finished.

I missed the first three frames, but looks like I just caught the best part. John Higgins played some snooker worthy of a World final. He has shown that kind of form in the previous rounds, but it looked like he was a bit spent for the final. Not the case tonight though.

Murphy will need to raise his game now, he needs a 5-3 or preferably a 6-2 in the third session. Higgins does lose concentration when he has a big lead, so I agree with the general expectation of a Murphy comeback. If Higgins plays like he played tonight though, I don't think Murphy can take him, he's left himself too much to do.

I'll already be two steps ahead of you Spike all I have to do is slip John speed like I did in the MSI.....oh god the secret is out.....you didn't see me here!!!

And Selby in 2007. He was leading 12-4 after the first day and Selby came back to be within 1 frame of Higgins.

[brettski]

That comeback is expected, I'll be amazing if Murphy just self destructs because its not something he does to be honest, I'm still cheering for Higgins though.

I;m torn between wanting an exciting final and wanting it to be over quickly so i can do some revision lol
