I think it was from the UK in 2012. It is quite embarrassing. It is a game of snooker. It isn't like going to war where your life is at risk. Perspective.

I'm not normally the sort of person who believes in this sort of stuff, but seeing how often Robbo's got in with a great long pot and then broken down, it almost feels like Mark's destined to win.

Neil just gives Mark too many chances. Opens the pack and then gives the frame to Mark...

Robbo's attempts to be positive have almost never worked this session. Only reason why I'm saying it.

15-14 Selby.
Just the sort of frame he needs.

That was the first quick frame of this session.
I expect Robbo to respond. Selby looks very sharp now though.

Next frame massive for Robbo, if he doesn't win it and goes 16-14 down he'll have to 3 on the spin.

These Dullards really do make the introduction of a shot clock absolutely justifiable in all situations except snookers.

Looks like it, but Robbo is well capable of recovering from a 16-14 deficit if Selby wins this frame.
