Jimmy White said the old stagers couldn't manage the speed of the tables. Not sure why these other chaps could if they are considered less skilful.

Great to see some new players in there for a change.  Delighted to see that hateful **** osullivan go out. 
Looks like a Bingham v Wilson final now.  Bingham is a bit of a character too.  Jones plays a different game as well and his safety is excellent. 
Refreshing to see these guys up there.  Fair play to them

Quote from: square_ball on Today at 10:02:56 PMThat's as bad a semi final line up as there's ever been.

Jones v Bingham
Wilson v Gilbert

What happened to big Ronnie Selby and  Higgins?

Who are Jones and Gilbert?

They've all been shite. Poor standard all round this year. Can't imagine that semi final line up will capture the imagination of the neutrals. David Gilbert was in the semi final a few years ago but bit of a journeyman player. Jak Jones is a Selby lite. Hard to watch.

Snooker on its last legs. No young players coming through. A quick look at the draw this year and there's a handful under 30.

Now is the time to try new players.  3 games v Offaly, Limerick and London would be good to blood a few more lads.

Was a good game to watch
Derry were blunt at times in the forward division considering the amount of possession they had

Two bad wides to win it in normal time

The two Loughmacrory men McElholm and McCullagh are natural forwards and had massive games for Tyrone tonight

I am left wondering about who prepared these lads or " didnt" in game management.
