Aye the 80s was it's heyday

Watching Higgins getting pished as the game went on he usually played better

White and Stevens chinged oot their nut

Everyone wanting the robot Davis to get beat

Griffths,Thorburn and Charlton boring the arse of it

Reardon,Taylor,Parrot and Virgo were a good laugh

A lot better than the dull shite these days apart from Rocket Ronnie

As History has shown- Don't bet against Trump

Trump is currently playing a guy called McLeod, possibly one of the worst snooker players I have seen.

Trump raced into 4-0 lead, where nil flattered the guy.

Since then it's been honking from both payers, hence the 4-3 score line.

Aye, snookers gone to pot.

Judd Trump faces a fine from snooker bosses for refusing to fulfil his post-match media duties following his shock World Championship loss to Rory McLeod.

The pre-tournament favourite was beaten 10-8 in the first round, with his agent saying Trump was unable to talk to the media because he was feeling unwell.

His failure to appear is a breach of his contract with World Snooker.

The world number two, 27, faces a fine from the World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association (WPBSA).

After enduring the Trump match I decided to tune in today and see if this was typical of todays standard.

Currently watching Bingham v Wilson, utter dross.

Between hardly any "characters" and the standard snooker is in deep trouble.

PS Possibly a bit harsh on Wilson against Bingham as Wilson had a very nice 70+ break.

Maguire 13-3 McLeod, bye to one of the worst players to ever grace the tournament. :clapping

Maguire should be visiting Weightwatchers soon.

McLeod leaves with £25,000 for being one of the worst players ever to (dis)grace the Crucible stage.  Wish I was as bad at snooker as him.:D
