Balls to it all

@WorldSeniors @jenningsbetinfo

Chairman Jason Francis has tonight announced that all customers attending their @jenningsbetinfo World Championship will be able to enjoy both tables as he is not placing a dividing wall usually seen in the two table set up. This means customers will be able to see both matches no matter where they sit. Jason said "Seniors under my leadership has always done things differently, and I feel a lot of audience lose out on the experience of being limited to one table in the early stages. We are abolishing the divider to allow everyone to enjoy both matches on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Expect a few more surprises in the coming weeks" You can now book for any early week session knowing you will be able to enjoy all 4 matches. tickets start at just £17.50 sheffieldtheatres.co.uk/events/world-s…

@Bjarne147 @longformsnooker @SteamTeam3211 @Snooker_Chat It/those please

@longformsnooker @SteamTeam3211 @Snooker_Chat @ballstoitall147 I never had Balls down for they / them pronouns 😂

Shaun Murphy has explained his recent absence from the BBC commentary box. Murphy was a regular fixture of the BBC team last season - but has not been part of the setup this campaign. He told The Metro he "couldn’t come to an agreement on terms" with the Beeb to stay #snooker

@InTheBalls147 Are there any levels Jason Francis won’t stoop to.

Is that an AI Hendry? Looks even worse on my TV

@longformsnooker @SteamTeam3211 @Snooker_Chat Correct

@SteamTeam3211 @Snooker_Chat From what I understand (via @ballstoitall147 ) its less a case of "letting him go" and more that he priced himself out of the gig by trying to become the best paid pundit... might be wrong though?

@Deco800_ Another Taylor Wilson academy graduate

Get Mr Ovviously Like I Said off my TV. Total misuse of the license fee.

@longformsnooker £££

@ballstoitall147 Interesting he says its "not without its troubles" and is a "big commitment" whilst trying to play... Which is exactly what everyone said all along (inc ROS) only for SMurph to say nobody knows what they're talking about and its actually improved his chances. Which is it Shaun?

Told you all this was why

@TSnooker102 State of you

@WeAreWST Dodgy pockets

Still thinking about this shot 😍 #WorldChampionship

@Daniel_kidd7 @OOCSnooker Can’t afford to

@OOCSnooker Does my man not change his clothes?

He’s back in his throne again 😅

@philhaigh_ That’s Shaun uninvited from the next Jason Francis daytime tv celebs versus chefs snooker event.

'It’s a real shame and they probably could both have done a little bit more to help promote the game over the years.' Shaun Murphy not impressed by Ronnie O'Sullivan and Judd Trump not turning up at the Crucible today Kyren Wilson had a different view 👇 metro.co.uk/2026/04/17/sha…

@sless147 @GaryOnCue What you saying

@GaryOnCue Can we add Saudi back in the calendar I wonder 🤣

Don’t mind the Champions Dinner stuff Getting a kicking from a few corners but WST certainly coming up with lots of ideas and trying new things to add to the tournament Evolution over the past few years has been excellent overall

@JasonKe67870918 Probably better than losing in the first round to a near rookie 🤷🏻‍♂️

@ballstoitall147 I suppose the standard is shit so he should be winning it every year?

Team Kyren Wilson will really struggle with him being the least favourite English player when he faces Stan Moody at the crucible. Wonder what theatrics they’ve got lined up to deflect, maybe cartwheels and party poppers or full crowd Macarena.

@JasonKe67870918 Worked well for him last year

@ballstoitall147 I think they'll use to forgotten tactic of trying to get more points that stan and win the match.

@Widukidr But he’s not trying to be something he can’t be.

The funny thing is, that Moody is as charmless as Wilson

@KyrenWilson Go with the Macarena then.

@ballstoitall147 I’m not that flexible

@Deco800_ Decent

@ballstoitall147 Crucible only , just Betfred go 9/1

Not usually a Ronnie backer but I’ll have a few quid on that 9-1 for him to make the tournament high break

@Deco800_ Someone’s pissed you off today haha

The World Championship draw as presented on the WST website. Nicely typed out with uneven spacing, looks awesome and professional as always.

@muns0n Correct he’s won decent money this season but none of it ranking.

@ballstoitall147 I think you’re right. He’s a local lad and KW won’t react well imo. I know he won the masters but in all the other stuff he’s not firing. I’d imagine he’s desperate for a good run.

@Deco800_ WST are shit at some stuff but not that bad. You don’t think there’d be riots if players didn’t get free tickets haha

@Deco800_ Not true they get free balcony tickets. And can purchase extras

WST charge players for their friends and family tickets
