Final tickets were from £110 for 'backrow seat', up to a few hundred. It seems to me, and yes I am raw and bitter right now , that a lot of the same people probably get tickets every year?

I know a third of tickets go on sale at the door for the following year's final, so those that attend this year simply queue up for next year?

I guess a Crucible final will have to remain on the bucket list......................until they move to a bigger venue

I know right I always see a good people who go to every session every year, there's the Cov fan for once. I don't know how they are able to do it straight away.

Crucible final will also be on my bucket list lol. I usually attend Champions of Champions final, I like the venue and tournament is nice too

I think everyone knows the Coventry fan

Apparently he spends tens of thousands each year

The C of C, that's in Coventry isn't it? I would like to do the Barbican in York for the UK

He's the one who did that special proposal 6 years ago

Dammmmn wish I was filthy rich and could spend that much.

Yep Champions of Champions is in Coventry, one of my friends won tickets to go to the UK Championship, I'd love to go there too.

fack the hot sunny weather

i'm indoors now to watch the last day of the final

williams flukes the red

he's had his fair share of luck in the final so far imo

11-7

higgins in big trouble now

Williams has that crucial 4 frame lead. This will test Higgins now.

Can’t see Higgins winning now. Williams with 3 pieces of luck to win that frame.

12-7

that's 5 frames on the bounce for williams

Williams looking good at the moment. Is there any way back for Higgins? Williams was 13-7 down against Matthew Steven's in the World final back in 2000. That could play on his mind as he knows very well Higgins could turn this around quickly.

Everything coming off for Williams it seems

Higgins will need to win 4 of the last 5 frames to stay in the match I feel.

Can't write Higgins off but Mark is looking brilliant

Thought when Higgins got to 7-7 he would start to take control

----------------------------------------------------------------------

That’s what I thought considering he was 5-1 down.

Mark playing well and getting a bit of luck here and there.

It’s not as if he is hitting centuries consistently though

every time williams misses he leaves nuffin'

The match is all but over now

7 frames on the bounce now

Higgins just needs to think that nobody expects him to win now so just go out without pressure

Ever since John missed that black last night which have got it back to 8-8 it's all gone wrong for him.

higgins bottling it

While I hope Williams wins would be nice if Higgins made a contest and gave us something to watch later

Higgins stops the rot and gets a frame back.
