I saw him pacing quickly across a road with his manager/minder/fluffer, cue case in hand, when I was holidaying in Belfast. I was all of a flutter.
Also, to get all amateur psychologist, watching people like Hawkins, Gary Wilson, Dave Gilbert and other perennial top 16/ top 32 type players who never win fuck all, I do think it's mostly psychological. Even when they go on a decent tournament run, I just don't believe them. Guy on eurosport was saying how Mark Allen described Hawkins as "solid" and basically good at every aspect of snooker, and yet as soon as he goes 4-2 down in this, against a fairly underwhelming Allen it's like yeah, obviously. Cus you're a fucking loser mate.
Consider yourself swooped.
This standard has been hilarious. Semi final of a triple crown as well.
Trump should wipe the floor with either but you wouldn’t be shocked if Allen ‘Selby’s’ him if he gets through
Used to be better before they were all listening to commentary on earpieces. Genuinely should be taken away.
that final frame summed up the whole game. At least the final shouldn’t be a dull affair
Lefties running the show.
Delighted to be wrong, as I love an underdog winner. Trump has been inconsistent as well, but I still reckon he'll probably batter Hawkins. The late finish here won't help. Plus while it's easy to write off my chatting bollocks about Hawkins being a LOSER, I think it's more of a thing tomorrow, seeing as the cunt has lost a few major finals before.
Sounds like an Ali Carter tweet
Yeah trump got battered in the Irish final the other week.
Should piss it though
I absolutely hate it, especially when virgo or one of the other dickheads makes a shit joke and the audience giggle and distract the cueist.
In theory it should help really though, because when someone plays a great safety shot and accidentally pots the red and leaves himself in a shit position, the commentators should be making it clear this is not a good outcome. I spose the BBC commentators are mostly just shouting where's the cue ball going and stuff, though.
Hawkins has lost two masters finals and a world championship final, and even managed to lose to mark king in some other final. Fanny.
The perspective you get from watching won't match the TV overhead so the commentary helps put that in context.
How is Shaun Murphy in commentary or in the studio for every single game? Beyond annoying
Did you see the tweet where mark williams said he muted if he's on cus he "never shuts up"
Get on Eurosport if you have it.
It's either that or Shaun Murphy winning the tournaments so which do you want?
They have far too many current pros commentating, I'm sure they had Kyren Wilson doing some games and he's like 33.
Chelsea could probably do with a third goal before the inevitably concede. Don’t really do clean sheets
What does a snooker teenager really know about the game?
Also, Shaun Murphy. How is in the studio every single game? Beyond annoying.
I can't believe you deleted the duplicate post, dickhead.
I was going insane wondering why that clean sheet post was being messaged on here after Danny in the other thread. Google chrome on the phone is as tragic as Trump has been here
Yeah I hate it, I need to work out how to do what Ben mentioned in the other thread.

Yeah, +1 for current pros commentating. There's something about it that sits so uncomfortably with me.
Hawkins looking Ike he's gonna take the lead, then a crap positional shot and two ropey safety shots let's trump back in, though trump only managed 14. Huge frame, I think who wins it wins the tournament.
It’s just hard to take them seriously especially when it’s always usually middle of the pack players doing it. Murphy critiquing a guy who papped him out the same tournament is just a bit wrong
Trump’s got nervous and Hawkins now can’t miss. Could be a decider
Fucking Trump, boring cunt.
Not on the table he isn’t, unlike 90% of the players
Hopefully he kicks on in triple crowns now rather than stat padding the ranking titles
I don't think Brecel could repeat this again if he tried 100 times.

Always nice to see Mark Allen lose. What a bottle job
That is genuinely remarkable.
What a bell end.
In 35 years of watching the sport I’ve not remotely seen anything like that. The seethe to end all seethes.
Watching it again I think it might be perfect. The ref trying to console the child while Selt can be heard smashing the shit out his cue.
That’s the worst part for me. Young lad getting a big win on tour and Selt has made him feel a foot tall.
We all love a tantrum when we miss but acting like that during a match over a fluke is embarrassing behaviour and he needs banning. No doubt it’ll blow over after a Twitter apology.
Kid should have been awarded frame and match. Selt also should get the banhammer.
Kid should also get a thousand ranking points for his delivery of 'Have a good Christmas'.
Yeah, the ‘have a good Christmas’ was perfect.
Selt has always come across as a twat
Some going that from Robertson.
Why do they wank on about the venue so much these days?
Pretty sure they always do it here and at the Crucible for the World Championship.
I always used to think it was because the rest of the (largely unseen) events are played at Rhyl or Prestatyn in front of 7 people and the referee, but these days there are loads of events in reasonable size arenas so I don't know.
Stephen Hendry did a behind the scenes video at the Crucible last year for his YouTube and other than the arena itself, it looked like a complete dump.
147 from Murphy. God, I really hope he doesn’t win this. He has looked v good all week though.
All aboard the Trump Train and his Triple Crown
Quite looking forward to this. 'mon Murphy!
That swerve shot was insane.
Ridiculous yellow into the middle there as well.
Aye, the forehead is on fire at the moment.
Got a bit cocky with the middle pocket there though.
Have players always been terrible at break offs or do they deliberately leave long pots on to entice the player to go for it?
Isn't it sort of a risk/reward thing - they can make the break completely safe but then it is likely to bog the frame into stalemate shitfest?
