    I don't get the hatred for Trump, but he is a little cocky * compared to the two players today. That deserved to be the final today. I'm * knackered from watching snooker!

    I've forgotten mate as i really don't follow it anymore but he deffo use to shout his mouth off in his younger days when he came on the scene. Think it went to his head to be honest and the irony is i don't think he fulfilled the promise!!

    Don't like him at all mate..

    Noticed he tries to take the * outta people when he's winning well. Cocky/arrogant. A sore * who slows the game down when losing and never known as player to play every time they need 4/5 snookers. I know today's modern game you can get out of trouble but almost all will concede at some points. That bawbag never does just to unsettle the other player..

    I'm knackered myself..

    Don't know if John can come through another if I'm honest. That was grueling and he's had 3 outta 3 now from behind..

    Hopefully he has it in him to pump that wee wurzel gimp..

    What a game that was chuffed for Higgins. You need balls of steel to be at that level I'm * just watching it.

    Beating that wee rat * in the final would be as good as it gets

    Fair enough! There are players I dislike a lot more than him. He wouldn't be on my shortlist of favourites either! I would love Wilson to beat him as I like an underdog and he seems an alright fella, but I would love Higgins to win it out.

    Both guys interviews proved how intense a battle that semi was, they were both spent.

    If Trump romps home tonight he goes into the first couple sessions fresh and with a massive advantage.

    That final frame in the Higgins match was incredible. Snookers for days. Didn’t think it was going to end.

    Delighted for John but kind of gutted for Gilbert at the same time.

    Wilson didn’t look impressed with Trump’s showboating there :nonono:

    I think we could be in for another long one. I wouldn't rule out another last frame decider.
