It's great to see the legend John Virgo back commentating he disappeared during the UK Championship.

Lovely shot from pink to black by Brecel for 3-3. They shoud just go to the decider now...........

Or maybe not! From 3-3, Allen powers away to win 6-3 with a final frame century. Good day of snooker

Agreed Arsenal, I missed Virgo " were's the queue ball going " too... Willie has been dumped though... only on BBC Wales for the Welsh open... BBC get rid of Doerty & Ebdon ... leave Thorne ... and Virgo..

I think Dennis Taylor is the one that should really go. I quite liked him at the beginning, when he first started commentating. but recently he just states the obvious and is getting quite annoying.

I agree that it's great to have Virgo back, occasionally repetitive, but usually is pretty interesting.

Joe Johnson on Eurosport is the most negative commentator out there... every other shot he says ... that's a bad shot, or he could have done that better...

Joe Johnson never let's the other guy talk. He's obsessed with his voice it seems!

Mike Halley is terrible. Hendry is great to listen to in commas box or studio.

Willie Thorne is probably my favourite commentator, he seems to come and go though

Judd Trump wins 6-4 he was cruising at 5-1 up but credit to Liang pulling it back to 5-4 but Judd showing great determination and character to close the match out.

Judd is a gimp, wanted Liang to turn that match around

No idea why Willie has gone, same as Clive Everton in 2009... GONE the beeb have gone for the modern Ex players brigade , expect Davis & Parrott to be on their way in about 10 years..

Ronnie this afternoon....and again on Thursday afternoon, if he wins, noticed that last year too, I presume they want the afternoon crowds up to maximum capacity ................

This is a weird place, sometimes it seems as if there’s a decent amount of post (15-20 a day) and on other days it seems like most people fall asleep. Same on the darts, tennis and cricket boards.

Anyway, Kyren is through beating Hawk who is struggling at the moment, can’t remember the last time he had a good tournament.

Rocket masterclass. There are people who when performing at their optimum in sport make you glad to witness it live/tv. Jordan in basketball,Messi,Federer,Ed Moses in athletics as well as Bolt. O Sullivan is in that pantheon of greats. You don’t have to like him but to deny that he is the greatest is deluding yourself.
