Nice gesture by Ronnie O'Sullivan at the end of his match with Hossein Vafaei

Don't know what the anomosity was between them

[douglas9401]

A bit like boxers I think.

They seemed chummy enough, almost like their cunning plan had worked. :-)

I think the snooker bosses told them to "cool it".

[Bazile]

So what was it between them ?

[davebro]

I think in a previous comp Ronnie was losing & smashed up the reds. This week there was a "war of words" - Hosein said Ronnie was only nice when he was asleep. Hosein retaliated smashing up the reds in their 2nd frame at the crucible. Much to the disgust of the commentators. But it didn't upset Ronnie.

[Bazile]

Oh ok - I don't remember that - that's unlike Ronnie - to smash up the balls

[Bazile]

Anyway who do you folks want to win ?

For me anyone but Selby

[davebro]

I've put a quid on Mark Allen v Ronnie in the final. I like Allen but for Ronnie to get the record 8th title would be fantastic. Like you Selby is not my fave.

[Bazile]

There is just something about Selby , that puts me off him

It used to be the same with Shaun Murphy .

However , I like Shaun now

[davebro]

Yes - I think Shaun is a nice bloke & a good advert for the sport.
