I bought some in Morrisons recently. They were not as I remembered. A pint of Guinness and a packet of Tayto Cheese & Onion was always on my list of things to do immediately on arrival in Dublin.
Gone to seed, innit.
They always tasted cheap but in a good/addictive way.

Lard arse Murphy should be disqualified for gurning every time he comes to the table.
If Oliver Hardy was a snooker player etc…
Murphy and Trump in the practice room earlier

I would like to see Kyren Wilson win it this year purely because he’s the only non-winner left in the competition.

Stuart Bingham and Shaun Murphy, what finer athletes would you want as role models?

Bill Werbeniuk?
Murphy is 38. His career winnings are £4.4 million. You think he’s a bit fat. He would probably think you were a bit poor and sad.
Wtf has any of that got to do with the price of potatoes?
Facts. We need facts.
Kirk Stevens, now there was a man who knew his way round coke and hookers!

Bill Werbeniuk knew how to knock a few back. Apparently 6 pints before a match, and then one for every frame…
No wonder he was good, I could make pots with 45 reds and 12 pockets, s’easy 
the 3 cues might be awkward though

some of the stories…
Bill was also famously reported in the UK tabloid press as successfully claiming the cost of 6 pints of lager before every match as a tax deductible expense.[2]
Some of Werbeniuk’s most famous feats of drinking include: 76 cans of lager during a game with John Spencer in Australia in the 1970s;[1] 43 pints of lager in a snooker match/drinking contest against Scotsman Eddie Sinclair in which, after Sinclair had passed out following his 42nd pint, Werbeniuk was reported to say “I’m away to the bar now for a proper drink”;[6] 28 pints of lager and 16 whiskies over the course of 11 frames during a match against Nigel Bond, in January 1990 – after which Werbeniuk then consumed an entire bottle of Scotch to “drown his sorrows” after losing the match.[1]

Wilson really putting the hurt on Murphy. It is very early days but this is a very impressive standard of play. I think I would like to see a Wilson-Bingham final as that would likely be a shootout to say the very least.
I would agree with that for Potato and Selby reasons.
