Crucible Tonight

[belton rover]

I was going to say look out for a fat bas**rd wearing a Rovers’ top, but no sportswear allowed.

Anyone else here/been/going?

[Herbert Anchovy]

I’ve been to the Snooker World Championship just the once. I saw Cliff Thorburn beat Willie Thorne in an absolutely cracking match. Meant to go again at some point but never got around to it.

Wasn't Willie Thorne so ground down by Thorburn's relentless safety shots , that he had to hang himself?

[belton rover]

Thought I was going to witness a 147 for a bit.

[BillyStubbsTears]

I've been once. Sullivan Vs Ebdon in about 2006. I was bored shitless and left halfway through.

Since when have footy tops been banned? Always looked forward to spotting the Rovers shirts.

I wore my Rovers top when I went to see Fighting Talk recorded there. I even got in a few of the photos they took.

[Bentley Bullet]

Maybe they were gonna use them for Where's Wally puzzles?

[Glyn_Wigley]

Don't worry, I'd tell them they could find you on here.

[Bentley Bullet]

Ooh, you're too quick for me!

I’m unsure if snooker is as crap as formula one to watch.
Paint watch dry.
Each to their own .

The difference to me is that I've played snooker (very badly) and can appreciate the skill and tactics involved. I've never driven a Formula One car and never will so I don't feel any attachment to it.
