It has come off a bit patronising at times tonight
Redcafe Snooker
- Thread starter Ronnie O'Sullivan
- Start date
-
Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) discuss United's fantastic win away against Athletic Club in the semi-final of the Europa League.
They also pick out the positives of United's 4-3 loss away at Brentford, and Nik reviews a day out at Old Trafford watching Manchester United Women qualify for the Champions League.
The weirder thing is they hired the guy who is consistently amazed that almost everyone he meets thinks he's a wanker.
Temper, temper… Mrs Selby has thrown her handbag
In fairness Shaun at his best would eat all those players left in the competition for breakfast, literally.
If I ever meet him, I’m going to go for a Trump style handshake and I’m not going to let go, he’s going to have to really work to get his hand free and it’s going to get really weird and really awkward for everyone else in the room real quick
The atmosphere at those urinals is gonna be weeeeeeird.
Murphy is definitely a trousers and pants down to ankles while chatting to the fellas either side of him (about himself probably) kinda guy isn’t he?
Murphy is a horrible guy but O’Sullivan has been on TNT over the 1st round in a punditry role.
Don’t like any active players with a vested interest being in the pundits chair to be honest
I know you hate him but Ronnie is doing this on tnt as well and I saw Mark Allen do the same earlier on the beeb.
There's plenty of legitimate stuff to hate him for such as his Jay from the Inbetweeners bullshitting, the myriad of tales from Joe Public about his arrogance or even his face which looks like it's been drawn onto a slice of toast, attached to his skull and then had the skin pulled over it.
I don’t like it when Ronnie does it either. Allen is only in the studio as a guest being asked for his insights and he’s nothing but complementary about all the other players as is the convention in any sport.
Murphy moonlighting as a commentator that goes full bore critical on his peers, often goes too personal and isn’t afraid to tell us why he thinks what they are doing is wrong or uncalled for is just completely inappropriate.
These two are playing pants.
The Jester from Leicester.
Going to be a long night
My buddy Ryan lost. Had enough chances but missed some by miles.
A very nervy 18th frame with Ben 1 away from beating Selby
feck this. I'm going bed.
I was enjoying the cageyness of it all but feck me it's gone staleThis half opening up for Ronnie if Ben takes it from here which looks likely.
Selby needs two snookers on the blue otherwise he is out.
For such a boring defensive player.... Selby's actual record is truly boom or bust. But on the flip side, reasonably solid consistent runs has only got Trump and Higgins 1 title between them in the same time since 2011.
Awful from Vafaei in that first frame. Awful position on the yellow and then an equally awful pot attempt.
Vafaei with a dodgy shoulder, Williams looking like he he’d been on the piss last night ….anyone’s match
Just reading on the BBC site that the draw is opening up for Ronnie
I know these commentators seem to regurgitate the same old lines but I think they should put a little bit of thought into why the favoured players are being beaten by the not so favoured ones and that is simply because they have played better and that means they will be tougher to beat.
I thought ex footballers as pundits were thick!

Nice of Shaun to get his tits out for the lads
Some quality in this Mark Allen match. Wakelin break building like a prime Ronnie and then Allen replies with a 147
Mark Allen 147 …good luck to the guy in the audience winning £25k
Wow that was some break. That plant 
Thought Allen was going to get another 147 there!
Makes for great viewing, he’s given up on the match so playing with complete freedom.
It's well known that pigs eat anything

I was quite ambient towards Murphy until I started reading this thread but now I'm totally onboard after reading about some of his antics.
Odious man by all accounts
The Jermaine Jenas of snooker. Someone at BBC sport knows how to pick them.
It is probably easier to draw up a list of people no one has a problem with in Snooker.
Murphy does sound like a twat but Hearne must be the biggest scrote associated with it. Saw him in the press today trying to strong arm the crucible and Sheffield council and trying to take the biggest tournament away from the most iconic venue in the game.
Moron.

Welcome brother.
James Corden v Shaun Murphy in a fight to the death is something I'd happily cheer in the Coliseum.
I don't give a toss about him, I just enjoy watching Pexbo get off on the porcine cnut(btw that's like 10 posts without calling him a porcine cnut dude. Do better)The Shaun Murphy hatred in here

He's actually related to James CordonThe Shaun Murphy hatred in here
