Maguire forgot his chalk and the referee let him go and get it. The snivelling wee prick then had a word with the referee and Maguire was docked a frame.

I like Murphy, snooker great and seems like a decent guy.  Maguire is the angriest man in snooker and needs a good punch himself.

Take it you'll be fine with it when Brazil walk out against us in June and the game is held up for 10 minutes because Vini Junior has forgotten to bring his boots out of the dressing room? 🤪

A blast from the past with this one, but Michael Forsyth would get a smack in the puss. 

I just saw an article about him in the BBC site, something to do with being the one who grassed on Mandleson. He says he didn't.  

Thatcher had some right c*nts in her cabinet and he was right up amongst the worst. 

 

Aye, line them up an' let's get punchin' eh? ... but one stands out ...

Leon Brittan - nae the worst, but ... that face!! ...

TBH I am surprised this bawheid is not mentioned more often in this thread. Whilst Trump is an ignoramus, he is someone you can appease by saying "there, there. Have you had your 2pm meds yet  Donald?".  Vance however ... 

At least put a real picture of him up, rather than some AI generated nonsense.

 

 

Everyone's favourite snooker player is in the final of the World Championship.

I'm sure you'll all be cheering on your best pal Shaun Murphy today and tomorrow.

That's a weird coincidence, I was just about to post his name.

He's a really good player but he's hard to take to.  He just always has this air of smugness about him.  Defo rooting for Yu Wize.

Both players have been phenomenal this year. The semis and final so far have been excellent entertainment.

Higgins O'Sullivan was up there with the greatest matches ever too.  I thought Murphy was playing so well he would overpower Yu but it's not turned out like that.  Could be a late one!

If Yize wins, then no longer will people be asking "Wu who"?

This is a cracking final Ito end what has been a cracking tournament I have to say.  One of the best things about working from home is getting to have the world's on in the background.  

gotta love a deciding frame

How ironic that fatty's last shot was getting out of a chinese snooker.

Some game like. Wu deserved it. Some phenomenal potting fae the lad. Without beer too. Impressive.

Frankly, Rico, I'm surprised you actively let this thread get derailed 🤣 I'm sure there's a snooker thread somewhere

I thought it was the snooker thread until it was too late. I'm not really a practice what you preach kind of guy to be honest, I'm much better at glaring hypocrisy.

Dinna get ma wrang ..... Ah'm auld school... ye dinna hit women .... but Ah support women's rights .... so if ye deserve a good punchin' ... gender is nae an issue!
