Red, Yellow, Green, Brown, Blue, Pink and Black. It's the General Snooker Thread!

It’s Selby, probably still won’t finish till 1am

Kelt · 1 May 2021 at 21:56

Lack of class from mastergrinder to celebrate before finishing.

Hope Murphy beats him.

arc@css · 2 May 2021 at 00:02

Best of luck to Murphy for the final. I really hope he wins.

Combat Fighter · 2 May 2021 at 08:09

For the good of snooker I really hope Murphy beats the boring Slowby.

Wizzfizz · 2 May 2021 at 09:04

I don't mind Selby, in fact he's one of my fave players to watch. I don't think he's slow either, most defo not on an Ebdon level of boring.

Merlin5 · 2 May 2021 at 13:58

Selby always looks half asleep. I was really hoping Kyren Wilson would make it to the final as he was the only semi finalist not to win the title yet. Currently 2-0 to Murphy.

Please, BBC. Don’t hire Judd to commentate again.

What an intro. Isn't it wonderful to have a sizeable audience again?

To be honest, I haven’t really missed it over the past year. It’s been nice not having the refs saying “turn your phones off” every five minutes.

. But I do like a good “ooh aah” when something happens.

robfosters · 2 May 2021 at 22:01

Damn, that noise right on Murphy’s backswing. I hope that wasn’t deliberate

arc@css · 2 May 2021 at 23:18

Looking like 10-7 to Selby overnight. :/

When the commentators and presenters gather, one of them is a young black man. I don't know his name but he's dreadful. He is completely useless. His colleague - the lady - does a fine job of bringing out details from the other two.

Selby is dire, I suspect he's going to romp this and win it for a 4th time. You have to tip your hat to him, fair play.

My word though, he's boring.

Merlin5 · 3 May 2021 at 13:33

Murphy just won the opening frame this afternoon and closed the gap to two and makes it 10-8 to Selby.

el_dazza · 3 May 2021 at 14:28

Selby spending an eternity playing for snookers again. Boring sod.

Randomface74 · 3 May 2021 at 14:32

Are there computers for calculating shots like chess computers?

arc@css · 3 May 2021 at 16:00

13-10 Selby.

Merlin5 · 3 May 2021 at 16:25

14-10 now. This is all over really. Selby lifts the trophy.

el_dazza · 3 May 2021 at 19:21

Such a Selby frame this. Black over the pocket and safety galore.
