    Shattered this morning at work after staying up for that, that’s late for me on a Sunday! 😂

    Have tickets for the Scottish Open at Meadowbank on the Thursday, really looking forward to it.

    I've never been to the snooker before but got a couple of days at the World Championships next year and can't wait.

    Hope you enjoy it.

    Shaun Murphy must have lost a good few pounds. He’s looking very well.

    If anyone's interested there's still tickets available for every day I think at meadowbank. Semi and final were previously showing as sold out but must have released more seats

    You’ll love it, I’ve been to the crucible a couple of times and been at lots of snooker as a table fitter waiting to brush and iron in the intervals though not at the Crucible. I much prefer watching snooker at the venue rather than on TV.

    Cheers can't wait. Got two days, one for a session at one of the semi finals and one session of the final.

    Really looking forward to it, love the World Championships and can't wait to go to such an iconic sporting venue. I've been wanting to go for years.

    That's criminal damage so he should be charged and have to pay compensation. If I was one of the spectators I'd be looking to collaborate with the others to sue him for compensation for the snooker missed.

    Just seen the news and pics, WTF, how can climate protesters go after snooker, what damage does snooker do to the climate, I give up on these crackpots, through the book at them.

    It’s not that snooker affects the climate, it’s that it’s a high profile event and televised. What better place to exercise civil disobedience in the name of your cause?

    However… what a ****.

    Same reason they deface famous works of art. High profile targets.

    Watching the protesters getting quite roughly manhandled out the way on Saturday at the grand National, got me thinking why dont the police do it the same way when these clowns sit on the M25, or main roads in London?

    The police are accountable to the public, security at these events are only accountable to the firm they work for

    Higgins dismantling Kyren Wilson, currently 7-0 up. Still think he has one more world title in him. He does seem to peak too early and runs out of steam by the final these days. He just can’t get over the line in finals like he used to. Lost so many finals the last few years, some criminally.

    A 13-2 scoreline is very impressive.

    Higgins 10-5 down to Selby. Can’t see him coming back. Not playing all that badly but Selby is out Higgins-ing Higgins.

    There was a frame where they spent 30 minutes on the last red, it was outstanding. Top safety and tactical play from the best two there’s been at that side of the game. Those are my favourite frames. My wife would divorce me if she had to sit through one of them when I drag her each year to the crucible.

    Higgins deserves to get rammed every time. After the match fixing sting on him. Cheating Celtic ****.

    Most tickets for crucible are sold out b4 event begins. You would have been gutted if you were at this semi & not the other one. It's meant to be entertaining.

    Aye, some folk might say Selby's play is what snooker is all about but it's beyond Cliff Thorburn-negative. Brutal stuff.

    Hope Brecel can do it.

    I'm not watching today as I can think of a dozen better things to do than watching Selby and some of them are tedious.
