    Not bothered whether he wins or not, he's just ****in entertaining to watch.
    That's why he's such a big draw for crowds, he plays shots that other pro's wouldn't even contemplate.

    FWIW I think he'll win it this year

      Don't get me wrong, he's a fantastic talent but he's wasted it. Should have won the Crucible every year he's been playing I reckon...he's miles ahead of anyone in terms of talent. Just hate it when people waste it

        I know what you mean in terms of titles, but if he never wins another tournament again, he'll be remembered as the best the game ever saw, until someone else comes along.

            The comments attributed to him on BBC Sport are bizarre. "O'Sullivan, who will face either China's Liang Wenbo or Northern Ireland's Joe Swail in the quarter-finals, added: "I really did think I was going to get beaten.

            "I expected Mark to really make it count because he's a big game player. I had packed my bags because I thought it was one of those games that was going to get away from me."


            He was ahead after the first session, and the second session - Williams did not really threaten him. I don't deny his genius at the game, but he's too often an embarrassment. And the amount of times he's complained of playing really badly after he's beaten somebody. As his opponent, you'd find it hard to like him. Maybe he'll get thrashed next round.
            I'm playing all the right notes. Not necessarily in the right order. I'll give you that, sunshine.

              I think he's great.

              He's a perfectionist, he wants a 147 every frame

                    Anyone noticed how he comes back after intervals and bangs in a few hundreds alot of the time? I swear he's a cokehead even when he plays

                      I never thought I'd say this about a snooker match, but last night's Swail game against that young lad from China was amazing!

                        I only watched the last frame but it was ****ing tense. They were both shot to bits.

                          And as for The Rocket, well I always hope for him to win every year. Whilst I quite like snooker, it is full of boring people with little or no personality/charisma - at least in the public domain. At least Ronnie brings some excitement to the game.
                          If Ronnie doesn't win I hope Fredo's mate does. He is cracking me up the way he keeps celebrating and then realising he hasn't actually won quite just yet

                              Do you have an alarm that goes off when someone mentions your name?

                              He is a teenage chinese player.
