      I say it every time I hear him commentate but does Willie Thorne ever get a thing F***ing right?

      Just heard him say "Ronnie will cannon the red by the pink" and yet Ronnie just holds it instead without going anywhere near the red by the pink. He's just a F***ing idiot who shouldn't be allowed to tell us what shot the player in gonna take on because he's almost always F***ing wrong. And Doherty is one boring c**t.

      Stephen Hendry is by far and away the best commentator the sport has.

      Ronnie made a few silly mistakes in this frame.

      I just hate Thorne mate, always have done. Don't have much time for Virgo either but at least he can be funny.

      Who was the old school scouser used to commentate? Was it John Pullman, he was spot on.

      Hawkins win the first frame of the final session taking the score to 11-15 in Ronnie's favour.

      F***ing great pot to start the 127 break, F***ing great final shot on the black as well. Struggled for position throughout the first half of the break but kept going. F***ing great break.

      Chippy tea, few cans of bitter and the snooker final...PERFECT!!!

      Simple red missed by Ronnie in the 27th frame.

      Barry starts with a good red. Nice split on the reds off the pink, unlucky not to be on an easy red. But a well taken red to the right middle and he's perfect on any balk colour. Chance to win the frame now.

      What a frame winning break off 66 that was. Or at least it should be.

      Full of difficult shots that Barry came through. Deserves to win the frame win that break.

      Poor safety from Ronnie, Barry has taken advantage by potting the first red followed by the black.

      It's on...

      Barry misses a difficult red along the top cushion and has left Ronnie in now.

      Still needs a lot of work with the reds around the pink though.

      Going to see the Snooker Legends next month in Belfast.

      Ronnie, Stephen Hendry, Jimmy White and Ken Doherty.

      Looking forward to it and although it's not a ranking event or anything it's my first time seeing snooker live.

      Been trying to watch this Champion of Champions thing on ITV4.

      Seems just like a watered down variation of the Masters.

      I never used to rate him but for the last twelve months or so, Stuart Bingham has been F***ing great.

      Currently leading Neil Robertson 2-1 in the semi final of the UK Championships. Selby v Walden in the other semi.

      What a come back that was from Bingham tody Billy.

      Sure was mate.

      Great maximum by Selby the savvy. Kinda messed up on the colours but constantly made great pot after great pot to keep the 147 going.

      Can't wait for tomorrow's final between world number 1 Neil Robertson and world number 2 Mark Selby. I'm working 12-8 so I should get home to enjoy the business end of the match in the evening.

      Been a boss final thus far, would love to see it go the distance of 19 frames but think Robbo will have it sewn up at 10-7.

      Great final.

      Can't believe Selby missed that black.
