When you retire, you switch bosses - from the one that hired you, to the one that married you.

Re: Snooker Thread
Left home 9am to grab a breakfast at our local cafe in Selby before train to York and the Barbican.
Two matches ROS versus Noppon Saengkham and Peter Lines (Leeds lad) versus zhou.
ROS didn't have it all his own way the Thai player led 3-2 at one stage until the Rocket produced his best.
Obviously supported the Leeds lad against the Chinese youngster but in the end it was the main from China who had too much class.
Great seats 3rd row and could see both tables.
Got on front row for last couple of frames of the Zhou victory after people left.
Of course for more legroom and nothing to do with trying to get on TV
Restaurant in York for a meal and a cozy pub for a few beers, late train home.
Great day out.

Re: Snooker Thread
Sounds perfect SW, I’ve mentioned previously me and a mate saw Peter hit a 140 in the Northern Snooker Centre on the next table to us whilst we were playing. It made our 18 and 22 breaks look a little weak.Selby White wrote:Left home 9am to grab a breakfast at our local cafe in Selby before train to York and the Barbican.

A load of upsets in this tournament, can’t help thinking it’s ROS or Kyren for the title, although we have a soft spot for Gilbert after seeing him a few times at the Crucible so hope he takes it.

Edit
They do 1pm tomoz
ROS v Kyren
Brecel v McGill
7pm
Zhao v Lisowski
Tonight's winners play each other.
Been impressed with Brecel, playing well but they all are.

That said, things very rarely turn out as you’d expect in snooker, especially the shorter format. Just settling down for Selt v Hawkins with an eye on Gilbert v Hicks.

Re: Snooker Thread
What a match that was, fair play to Kyren, lives up to the warrior tag.

We've gone for the Wednesday afternoon again as restaurants are quiet afterwards.

It's earlier in November next year so not to clash with the football World Cup.
