" Gloucester’s Milkins is known on the circuit for using The Worzels’ ‘I am a cider drinker’ as his walk-on music. :


Robert 'The Milman ' Milkins should've stuck with the milk man to drink because he's going to slide well down in the rankings , maybe he should've just had a few White Russians instead :

LIANG WENBO SUSPENDED FROM WORLD SNOOKER TOUR BY WPBSA AFTER PLEADING GUILTY TO ASSAULT OF WOMAN​

Liang Wenbo has been suspended by the WPBSA after he pleaded guilty to assaulting a woman in Sheffield last year. The guilty plea came to light on Friday, and WPBSA chairman Jason Ferguson confirmed the suspension. "I have reached the decision that this is the only appropriate action to be taken," Ferguson said. :​

I think I'd rather take an AzBilliards time out ban than a suspended ban from World Snooker but that's just my opinion man.....

'I'VE NEVER SEEN THAT BEFORE!' - PIGEON CAUSES HYSTERIA AT CRUCIBLE DURING MARK SELBY WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP GAME​

It is not every day at the Crucible that a pigeon interrupts proceedings, but that is exactly what happened on Friday afternoon during Mark Selby's second-round clash against Yan Bingtao in Sheffield. Both players were left stunned by the incident as the bird landed right next to Yan's chair and then on the table itself. The crowd were as shocked as the players by the amusing delay to the match. :​

https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=498933748632161

.....So I met this guy down the pub and he sold me a homing pigeon so I wrote out a note and sent it to The Crucible and the note said , Xhao Zintong the way to beat Stephen Maguire is to frustrate him and make him punch the table in anger but it turns out it was a deaf , dumb and blind Irish homing pigeon and yes it got to The Crucible but it landed on the wrong table at the Mark Selby V Yan Bingtao match and now Xhao trails 11-5 and the 66/1 good thing is well on the drift at Skybet to 150/1 and unless the snooker gods call that bet is looking as dead a this parrott .

Sean's commentary is growing on me. Stephen Hendry still my current favorite. JV and Dennis can still provide commentary for the seniors events!

So three toilet breaks and an interval break in a 10-frame match. If you count before and after the match, that's six possible peeing times. I'm guessing Petrov is too young to have the problems older gentlemen have in the urinary department. Probably a smoker. Smoking should be forbidden on toilet breaks. One word Mr. Petrov: Depends.

Thailand's Thanawat Tirapongpaiboon has been banned from snooker until 2025 for match fixing.
I'm still wondering...
Why was Thanawat Thirapongpaiboon allowed to enter Asian Q School, while his case not settled the last 7 years? Then he earns a spot on the Tour, yet WST refused to give him a TC. Pure class again by the snooker authorities. (Sep 1th 2022)
