In relation to the other question, you could tell Dott was tired, but Neil was desperately trying not to make a mistake - and can you blame him really? It was the biggest match of his life and I'd certainly be taking things slowly. And it paid off, thankfully. I'd imagine if he made another final he'd be more relaxed now.

He wasn't playing particularly well either. Most of those frames could have gone either way really.

Yeah, it was very close. Dott put up a good battle, I'll admit. Until Neil had stretched 16-13 in front, I still thought Dott would win.

Oh, of course. To say Robertson was playing his best would be stupid. He wasn't by any means. He was just cautious.

I'm still disappointed it wasn't a Robertson V O'Sullivan final, but there you go.

Your right! lol

Although I do like to play pool and have played a bit of snooker myself but I find it oh so boring to watch on TV.

That's a good question. I suppose he'd have to be stripped of it.

see i was thinking that Neil potentially became number 1 there last night which would probably mean more to him than the tournament win...

Glad to see someone else noticed the constant coughing during the final.

Glad to see someone else was whacked off the head watching the final.

Iceman · 04-05-2010, 11:19 PM

glad to see you're using glad to see a lot haha!!!

reckon this should be the snooker thread from now on...get it stickied when big tournament is on...

Stu · 04-05-2010, 11:21 PM

Sounds bitchin'. We need a dedicated snooker thread. Heck, we need a dedicated Michaela Tabb thread. I'd smack my cue ball off her pink and brown any day.

Iceman · 04-05-2010, 11:26 PM

LOL you so would wouldnt you!!

Was it like the time that guy coughed at the right answers during Charles Ingram's game of "Who wants to be a millionaire?"

setanta · 04-05-2010, 11:28 PM

Yeah, but she should have to wear the same rigout that the ball girls at some of the tennis tours do. Now that would be magic.

Yeah, only without Chris Tarrant. And with balls on a baize instead of questions on a board.

Heck, they were nothing alike.

setanta · 04-05-2010, 11:33 PM

You know that ones I'm talking about, right? They hired models to be ball girls at some of the ATP tour venues just to get more people watching. So funny.

like the F1 women who stand there holding umbrellas......most F1 teams have 100-200 people working for them who could easily do that job.....(im not complaining by the way)

I don't watch Formula 1 but yeah, I'd say it's along the same lines. Now they need to get her kitted out in that gear!
