Surprising the Pretend IRA/Glasgow Celtic lobby havenāt been out cheering on Anthony McGill. Maybe itās because heās from the East End of Glasgow and supports his local team.
A big heap of fouls would be a fitting end to this match
McGill falls over the line. Clarke will have nightmares

Wilson level things up at the mid session interval
Snooker is never going to be exciting but the likes of Selby, Dott, Ali Carter and Feargal OāBrien really suck the life out if it. I love snooker but I switch off when those lads play.
I could see Selby winning this as Robertson despite all his natural talent is a bit flaky and can be got at. Donāt think Selby is playing anywhere near well enough, nor has been for a long time now, to get over most likely Ronnie in a semi final and Trump in a final.
3-0 Selby
