Thanks for that.

More information than you'd get off the BBC, to be fair.

The draw for the English Open is out and there are some cracking first round ties:

O'Sullivan v Ochoiski
Trump v Heathcote
Higgins v Cahill


Define a cracking match

cant see any of them close matches and there are much better matches in the 1st round

That's just Ronnie bias, isn't it? I don't even know who Ochoiski is. rofl But Ronnie could be playing a corpse, and everybody would act like it was the must-see match of the first round. :roll:

The Trump match ain't all that either. But we all know him and Ronnie will be the ones who get on TV.

I can see what they were thinking with Higgins vs Cahill, though Higgins isn't the force he was a few years ago. Big Name vs Known Giant Killer. Even if Higgins is a bit past it, by his standards, of the three that's the one I can see what they meant the most.

Though, let's be honest, it's not often that a best of seven ends up being a cracker. The only one I can think of is that Ronnie vs Trump PTC final. And even that was a cracker despite it being a best of seven, not because of.

Higgins-Cahill could be close. Both have been rubbish for about a year.

To be fair, Wild always says he doesn't care about standard, as long as a match is close.

he only needs a draw with Allen but realistically can you see Allen not beating Castle and Honghao

Considering how bad Robbo was yesterday I can see Allen losing to anyone.

of course? allen has already not beaten jamie wilson today, a significantly worse player than both luo honghao and castle.

it's very much in the balance. allen still has a good chance too, he'll be favourite for both of his matches. but he needs to win six frames. luo honghao only needs two, or for allen to slip up against castle.

True.

But he is 28, & from Hampshire; that much we do know.

I don't really like The Championship League.

Thing is if you just look at it as individual frames of snooker it doesn’t really matter what the format is.

This group’s actually quite interesting because Allen’s under pressure to stop himself being knocked out of the tournament.
