I hate the way Dennis says the word "black". I cringe in anticipation of him saying it.

Which one of these two ROS breakdowns were worse, 2005 against Ebdon or 2006 against Dott?

Obnoxious Ronnie fans in the crowd cheering Perry's in off. Classless.

Sorry, what does that mean?
Are there any other words/expressions used by the commentators that make you cringe?

I'm suggesting you go to EuroSport, which has less cringey commentators by far.

against ebdon clearly
led 6-2, 10-6 and lost his head after ebdon made his famous breaks
against dott the tip was a big issue

Has Ronnie gone out for the night and invited a lookalike to play in his stead?

The problem is my Eurosport's not in English. Which means the commentators are less knowledgeable than I am. Very annoying.

He's been bodysnatched by Higgins.

Perry misses frame ball, but position of balls not great with a red and the pink safe.

Alright, things are just not happening for Ronnie tonight. Time for damage limitation, something he has been very good at these last 2 years.

But ends up being 4-1 anyway. Perry has to take a lead at the end. 4-4 would be disastrous if Ronnie keep this standard up.

For me the one against Dott was worse, trust me, there was nothing to smile about after that match. Whereas the Ebdon one was at least semi-entertaining and funny.

How could he have been good at that when he has barely been behind these last years?

Q: Is supporting Ronnie the most difficult supporting job out there?

Precisely SO, no alarm bells at all yet.
Ronnie will be looking to level at 4 all or 5-3 down, I'll be happy with that.

This goes 5-1 and Perry becomes favourite, in my opinion.
