Is he this year's Dave Gilbert?

There's always a "Star of the Show", and it's very rarely the winner. Joe Johnson in 1986 and Shaun Murphy in 2005 are the only two examples that jump to mind. Trump came close in 2011, and Doherty in 2003 of course.

Selby 2007 maybe?

Also MJW was very much star of the show in 2018.

Bolx, you're right, been working so missed his matches. Should have said over 100 tons, but that will go soon as well. Anyway, the girl on Babestation is waiting for your call - why is red button next to porn on Freeview?

OK, I've been busy and missed it, going to find it on iPlayer, genuinely want to watch Trumps 100th ton. Your BS has been noted too, and not just by me. Anyway, Babestation girl is still waiting for your call, don't let her down, she relies on your calls to feed her kids.

Yeah - I expected a smear job. Just got tired of waiting for it to be fixed tbh. Anyhows, I don't do things for glory - just happy the Island is running again.

Watched the Judd 100, bit of an anticlimax compared to Robbo's. Some people in the little crowd that were there didn't even clap....miserable sods. Well done Judd, joins an exclusive club of 2.

It’s an arbitrary marker, a bit like the sub 4 minute mile
Nobody cares about the second person to do it

I think that were Roger Banister. I only remember because that's a great name.

So he ran a mile, and still got back in time to see two minutes of Selby trying to make a shot?
