    I hope John can come back. He plays better when he's getting beat.:shamrock:

    Trump is a class act though.

    Higgy is by no means out of it but he needs a good session this afternoon.

    Hadn't seen Trump play before last night, he is incredible. Think Higgins will push him all the way, would be happy for either to win.

    C'mon John turn it on today.

    Trump is undoubtedly a class act but Higgins hasn't played his best yet this whole championship imo

    What a turn around by John. All the pressure will be on Trump now having thrown away a 3 frame lead.

    Higgins is a snooker behemoth, he has rattled off 4 and 5 frame streaks under pressure that many times it's incredible.

    Can't see past him no matter how many pots Trump makes off the edge of a * paper, it's impossible to shake Higgins off.

    The abillity of John Higgins to pull a performance out the bag is unmatched in Snooker. I can only think of Taylor in the darts who is as able to come back from playing utter gash and pull his way to victory. The hate the English are displaying towards Higgins, as well as Trump's chavvy mates in the crowd, are making me want Higgins to win even more if thats possible.

    I'm desperate for Higgins to win * Trump and his stupid pals. Does anyone know what the heckler shouted to John yesterday ?
