/147/ World Snooker Championship Final

Mark Selby (Eng) v John Higgins (Sco)

Best of 35 frames.

Today's sessions at 2:00pm and 7:00pm BST

Does anyone genuinely like Selby or enjoy watching his matches?

lelby v riggins, JUST

I don't dislike him. I don't think he's as negative as others do. Guys a pragmatist and a winner. It's not his fault no one else is at his level right now

he does what he needs to win, I get why people find his style a bit drab but it's not like he's going to risk losing is it.

I do. For me it's hard to imagine how people who say Selby is boring look like. Are this all folks who started to watch Snooker like 4 years ago?

I mean if they think Selby is boring, how the hell did they manage to watch Steve Davis or John Parrott? Even Steven Hendry was kinda revolutionary although his playing style would be probably also considered boring by today's standards. Last step in the evolution in Snooker which hasn't been just a meme was Rpmmie. After that "new" players became pretty cancerous: Morphy, Robertson, Trump. Each on of these faggots is much worse to watch than Selby.

All people who cry about Selby's playing style are century babbies who think a frame lasting 30 minutes must be a bad frame. For me the perfect frame is a safety battle for the last Red, preferably when one of the players already requires Snooker. Even better. And when it lasts 10-15 minutes, who the hell cares. As long as it's on a high quality level it's entertaining.

>As long as it's on a high quality level it's entertaining.

Basically all I care about. Trouble is everybody is a choker at the moment who can control the cue ball

This is the worst possible final pairing imaginable

>two best and most in form players
>worse pairing

We wanted Le Gwan Ronnie or Dong

Can't wait to be up until 3am Tuesday morning when Selby finally crawls over the line

>Snooker
>Football
>F1
>Nice weather

Too much stuff happening at once lads

>selby bangs the table
>wakes up half of Sheffield

Selby is a long "grinder" who is happy to play 4 hours of safety play and in Snooker that is really fucking boring to watch but and all due credit for his mental work efficiency

The most beautiful snooker to watch is fluid play, making the shots look ridiculously easy and smashing in centuries.

good day lads

Selby at his best is terrifying. He rarely plays his best though

Looking forward to crawling through my hangover and getting comfy with snooker.

>Selby is a long "grinder" who is happy to play 4 hours of safety play
>all due credit for his mental work efficiency

Agree. That's basically why I like to watch him play.

Peter Ebdon in a wig.

Call the fucking men's rights activists. It's like anuda shoah.

Yeah he's alright.

Anyone order a taxi?

RIGGINS VS LELBY
WHO /COULDN'TGIVEAFUCK/ HERE

I'm looking forward to it because I'm not a pleb.

time to get comfy

I just hope it's going to be a close one

hello ausbro

had fun yesterday?

GWAN PIGGINS
PLS NO RIGGINS

same here mate
enjoy this high level comfyness

2 many qts this year

Always nice to see Selby get cheered on by his mum.

Hey, m8. Yes, thank you. Too bad Ding didn't make it yesterday.

I don't know, Rob is showing his age 2bh

morning snookerists, lets hope the molestation isn't too intense

we had a shitstorm over here in the thread too so you didn't miss much

staying with us for today and tomorrow?

>morning

>"i want selby to win"

It wouldn't be the snooker if there wasn't a chap wearing a football jersey in the front row.

Isn't the morning whenever you get up?

Careless careless careless

gotta earn that 300k

no m8, you're thinking of breakfast

Higgins pls

Yes. Getting comfy.

Fucking plastic united.

Now Higgins looks like he's been on the Tennents all morning

ok thanks, will amend life

Hopefully this thread will be more comfy than yesterdays thread.

>repeat of the 2007 final

Stop embarrassing yourself. qt my arse.

>test of stamina

It's the first fucking frame

Selby's hair game improved greatly 2bh

I'm glad snooker players have grown out of the silly haircut phase. Trump used to be one of the worst offenders.

It wasn't snooker, it was just the 00s
In ten years we'll think hair now looks silly

Who is Bing supporting?

Is Higgins throwing it?

True but the hair styles currently are more sensible, so they won't age as badly.

Trump is still the worst offender, its a fucking comb-over!!

Probably having another nervous breakdown.

>lelby

Very true

Evil Ronnie is best Ronnie

and this one isn't even in his top 10 of worst hair cuts

Is Hoggins /ourguy/?

don't worry, he'll be bald within 3 years

neither will ever be /ourguy/

>safety time

rite, time to cook sausages

kek

imagine if graeme dott hug himself from the lighting above the table in the middle of the final session

z i s

>tfw cheeky bacon sarnie
>did a slice of fried bread too because I'm a fat cunt

i miss ding...

Alri lads.

>tfw came all the way from dutchland for this shitshow

iktf, he stole our hearts and minds

think I'll leave that pleasure to you, friend

Lucky Lelby again.

iktf

bald ronnie would sack klitschko and joshua alone

How much do you guys reckon Riggins has on his defeat?

Selby is cute, no homo.

Snooker is a British, working class man's sport.

fuck JFs trying to steal it from us, they'll never have our heart.

Yeah I miss Ding too, so entertaining.

Gwoan Biggins

...

Why is he walking forward, when his neck is clearly restrained? That makes no sense.

Where is your fridge pics. You have been nothing but a goober all day after dodging the nice request for fridge pics. You ran, ran like a dog. Not just a normal dog but a proper fast one like when a dog gets into school & the dog doesn't know where to run. The dog runs faster & faster made worse by hundreds of the kids chasing it too.

You're not a scared school dog are you?

please, don't feed the failedlowlifetroll

>blarry vs ding final
>both genuinely happy, smiling, loving the game

>selby vs higgins final
>deadfish who keep looking at his mom and a cheating pig
>both looking assblasted all the time

maybe next year we will get a more entertaining final
done complaining, its still snooker so i guess its alright

Also you never did answer if you watch anime. What terrible manners you've had today. Been on phone to your nan. She's going to give you a proper crack around the ear later on.

Had a cheeky bath with her too. Nice lady

Friendly reminder that Higgins was caught trying to match-fix and not matter how 'boring' Selby is you're a wrongon if you're not supporting him in this final.

Turn off the sound, get on with something else, glance at the snooker from time to time..

>watch Snooker for two whole weeks
>don't watch the final la

>both genuinely happy, smiling, loving the game

Selby will win this 18-10 easy 2bh

Yeah I watch anime, Satoshi Kon

>wanting personalities over technical excellence

Barry pls

dott please

fuck off you casual, you haven't even been posting in the threads you cunt

You literally showed up for the first time yesterday

...

Grow up...
