Snooker 2021

[sevendaughters]

if I could pick one from Phil Yates or Rob BBC Earnestman to jettison on an orbit around the sun it would be the latter

[Shoulders?-Stomach!]

Just thinking about his arselicking and narrative scaping  homilies makes me shudder, utter cunt.

[Blue Jam]

Are the qualifiers being televised anywhere?

bloke on reddit says eurosport.

Belated cheers for that. Just got some Bazzamail with more details for how non-Eurosport subscribers can watch for free elsewhere:

Louis Theroux is making a three-part documentary series about the dark side of snooker:

Mark and Armando not snooker fans then, I take it? Ah it's no loss.

I wanted all of it, from Sohail Vahedi vs Julian Leclerq to the eventual haggard push over the line for Graeme Dott.

WC Qualifiers began this morning. Andy Hicks through against Reanne Evans. Wins for Lines Junior, Zhao Jianbo, Fan Zhengyi, and a walkover for David Lilley.

Jimmy v Hendry redux is on Bazzavision tonight.

Jimmy Hendrux

Barry Pinches' Crucible Dream ended 6-0. I watched a bit of him and he looked like disgraced farmer Tony Martin.

[Blue Jam]

Who is playing on the other table?

It is I, LeClerqc

[Dusty Substance]

Jimmy v Hendry redux is on Bazzavision tonight.

Forgive my Luddite ignorance, but what's Bazzavision? I'm very keen to watch the Jimmy/Hendry match.

Cheers.

Barry Hearn's thing, hence the name. If you don't want to register there's a chance someone might be streaming the content on YouTube, try searching around break-off time for that.

I don't think you have to pay, just register

also reddit snooker usually has a streaming link

[sevendaughters]

just went below the line on snooker.org, some right sorts in there.

[Blue Jam]

Ha, I didn't even know a site as 90's-looking as snooker.org even accepted btl comments.

Snooker Island is the main snooker forum isn't it? I don't go there either. Not enough photos of Ding pretending to eat pies. I prefer it here.

[Blue Jam]

Oh yes, and the qualifiers are on Eurosport too.

[Blue Jam]

Hendry vs White on NOW

[Wayman C. McCreery]

It's on the Eurosport Player too. I got a Black Friday deal but I think the normal prices are pretty reasonable. Well worth it for any snooker fan anyway.

This match has been abysmal so far. I love it.

[sevendaughters]

yeah, proper 3 pint feel to it, a scrap for all time

[Blue Jam]

Yeah, proper World Seniors level stuff here. Strangely mesmerising stuff though.

Nice one - I've registered but work out where the live match is!

I'll have search around on YT for a stream.

Cheers.

So what was a watching on Freesport ealrier? Mark Williams was playing. Saw Robertson's sweet hair.

[Blue Jam]

James Cahill is through to round two. Gwarrrrn you swaggering Blackpool embryo, you're my sporting hero you are, please don't be a one hit wonder.

Still watching White vs Hendry. The standard is total shit. Amusingly so. I'm loving it.

[Albert Soviets]

Fuck's sake, Jimmy. :(

[Dusty Substance]

Two decent-ish frames so far but, yeah, kind of embarrassing watching these former giants playing like amateurs.

Fuck's sake, Jimmy. :(

That foul on the pink :(

[DocDaneeka]

Both of them should be retired... From life!

[pigamus]

Can't understand why anyone would want to watch it to be honest. I don't want to see either of them being embarrassingly shit, it's not dignified

[Blue Jam]

Oh thank FUCK that's over...

Hope Hendo makes it to the third round and gets knocked out by Aaron Hill or someone.

[Dusty Substance]

I know what you mean, but it's not about this match, it's about all the history the two of them have.

Like when Obi-Wan fought Vader at the end of Episode IV - It's not about the choreographed gymnastics of Episode III, it's two old men battling it out.

[EOLAN]

Well it was fun. Horrible quality but some competitive frames. Contrasting steals by Hendry proved to be the difference. One with a highest break of seven and a snooker required on the pink. Excellent 60 odd clearance when White.

Thought Verhaini, a guy I just like had it wrapped up against Leclerq but a great comeback.
