For some reason I’ve decided to start watching every official 147 I can find footage for, and will give you my thoughts.
For no real reason other than I might as well have something to show for this wasted time.
Enjoy!
This City Is Ours, one of the most talked-about TV series in the UK at the minute , featuring a stream of Sanderson Lam v Oli Lines at the Northern Snooker Centre.
What did you spend your royalties on @sandi147?

Genuinely one of the worst things I’ve ever seen happen on a snooker table
HAVE YOU EVER SEEN THE LIKE? 🫣
5-5. 72-72. Respotted Black.
What happened next had to be seen to be believed! 🤯

Of course we all love to see a close final, but thanks for the early finish so I had some time to enjoy a few of these before an early flight tomorrow morning @KyrenWilson

Honestly, if The Crucible wasn’t The Crucible, this would be the best venue I’ve been to.

The Waterfront Hall has it all
I know snooker folk will be chatting about this - the phone criminal did not get thrown out. Security just took the phone
I think Kyren is such an under-appreciated snooker player because his personality seems to split opinion. One of the very best on the tour to watch
Nightmare of a journey with the weather, but worth it to watch the snooker in one of my favourite cities.
What an arena 😍

Interesting opening salvo.
Jak not cueing well at all and visibly frustrated, but does have a knack of finding a way back.
Kyren not on top form himself. Get the feeling this is going deep

Something incredibly satisfying about scrolling past Bayern Munich vs Arsenal to watch Michael Holt vs Jordan Brown on the HBO app

A statement on yesterday…..
Everything I said in that interview was true. However, rest assured I’m doing my best to turn things round.
I have been in a mental health clinic for the last 10 weeks, finally discharging so I could attempt to play in Belfast
I owed that to my family, in particular my daughter to see me play for what could be the last time….. I also owed it to the fans who have supported me throughout my 21 years on tour
I also owed that to World Snooker who have been amazing from day on in all this, in particular Simon Brownell and Neil Tomkins who have remained in touch regularly, even Simon paying me a visit in the clinic itself
I’m not ok, but I’m ok in that itself. I’ve been much worse in the last few months than you saw yesterday. I literally didn’t see a future in anything…..
My daughter kept me going, the therapists, staff and all the other patients were amazing and helped me through some really dark days
I see the light now that I couldn’t see before but I do now. I also know it won’t happen overnight. I’m a work in progress!!! My fight and determination on the table has always been there for ones to see. I need to show those same fighting qualities off it now for a while
Please don’t detract anything from Jordan yesterday, he’s been aware of my struggles and that can’t have been easy to play in but he handled it with grace and skill as I knew he would. Im proud to call him a friend
I hope the rest of the event is a success and I will continue my treatments going forward and then see what’s ahead
Thank you to every single message I have received on here, instagram, Facebook, text messages and WhatsApp’s, I’ve seen them all but a bit overwhelmed to reply right now. Just know that they have helped me a lot but I’m not going anywhere just yet!!!! I have so much to live for and this is only the beginning of my new journey
Also, I was not made to do any interviews, I was simply given a choice and felt I owed it to everyone to speak. The media team at WST have been incredible through all this too
Thank you all x
Unbelievable from everybody involved in those post match talks. Incredibly emotional. All thoughts with Mark

Find it strange how pocket talk went from being so big to now being barely mentioned.
So much talk about the amount of upsets this week, but 0 mention of pockets🤷♂️
Maybe a coincidence but definitely worth noting
