Where's the Cue Ball Going?!!! The Snooker Thread

[Guest]

For all your Snooker, Billards, Pool, Russian pyramid, kaisa & Carom needs.

Not Bar Billards, lol.

I was in town today and they were having some sort of snooker match in the Winter Gardens. I didn't get to see any of it because there were spectators in the way but they all seemed to be having fun.

Hang on, maybe they score points for not potting the balls?

"Additional points are awarded for caroming the cue ball to object balls (in any order) on the same shot, providing that the initial object ball was pocketed."

On Sunday they're showing the 1982 Snooker final on BBC2.

I'm already chalking my cue in anticipation!

Oh, hang on, "Hazel Irvine takes another trip down memory lane as she relives the 1982 world final between Ray Reardon and Alex Higgins."

I thought they'd just show the whole thing, unedited, this is going to be a story of a BBC presenters personal development isn't it?

This is a bit of Ron/Ding-a-doo-ron-ron-ding-dong!

I haven't watched any of this so far but I read that John (Where's the white going) is stuck in Spain or somewhere.
I actually saw him do an exhibition match at Fanchester Billiards and Snooker club back in 1980 whatever.
He was very funny.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

I thought he was dead.

I think I was mixing him up with Willie Thorne.

For the record, it's "where's the cue ball going, where's the cue ball going!?"

This Trump-Robertson final is absurdly close.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

I hear Trump will refuse to admit he's lost.

[Nightjar]

I think he's just Biden his time.

[Nightjar]

Neil Robertson's afro.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

I'm not watching the snooker but I'm still excited about the snooker.
