    With the amount of easy shots being missed this last few days i can't blame him for taking his time.

    As for needing snookers, might be a bit if a * for playing on but I for one would try to frustrate the competition.

    John Higgins (face palm)..

    8-7 up. A break where he's up and misses the green to win the frame. Get's a second chance and instead of leaving an almost impossible pot. Tries to cut it, misses the green, goes right down the table and back up on the cushion for Bingham to pot the easiest of green's and take the frame to 8 each over night...

    Glad Higgins game was over. Couldn’t stand Shaun Murphys commentary. He’s only just been put out and already flung into commentary box!
    But aye, face palm indeed. Didn’t look cutable.

    Aye he's been pretty annoying as a pundit/commentator so far..

    Think he was even commentating in between his loss to Robertson. Fat balloon..

    He's got the most gammiest fingers I've seen in snooker by the way :giggle1:

    Higgins' breaks from the dead are fantastic man. Mon wee man..

    When Murphys commentating he never shuts the * up, same as Alan McManus.

    Virgo is good.

    MON HIGGINS PUT THIS * OOT.

    Murphy is insufferable..

    McManus is decent and knows his stuff but * me he loves jumping the gun and telling us every next shot and how it'll be played. Don't know how many time's he's said the next shot will be played as such and such and get * completely wrong :56:

    Praising Higgins then he completely * positioning on the pink with the ball's set up beautifully for a 1 visit finish to go 12-9 with Bingham crumbling..

    11-10 now and given him a life line..

    There's not many better players under that sort of pressure, he seriously needs to cut out all those slack mistakes however cause Robertson will not let him off like Bingham did.

    Baws of steel..

    Still makes too many silly errors positionally though..

    Robertson deffo will capitalise and beat him convincingly if he carries them in to it..
