I think his head has gone, imo he won’t win another major tournament
. Bow out now Ronnie, we don’t want to see you beaten by Billy nobody’s.
10:30 pm Sat . Has to be the most insipid snooker match ever. At this rate they’ll have to delay the start of the final
Is Mark Allen being coached by Peter Ebdon these days, seems to take ten minutes over every shot.
Shaun Murphy on the BBC: 'Now, it's completely within the rules. But at what stage do we question whether the amount of time Mark Allen is taking over simple decisions is a tactic to annoy his opponent? I can't see any reason other than that for why he's taking so long.'
I reckon it's more likely he's just grinding it out and trying to be super careful for whatever reason, but yeah less of a Pistol and more Musket Mark Allen these days.
Possible it's gamesmanship, but it would be odd psychologically for a player who's played rapid snooker his whole career so far to start playing intentionally slowly to wind his opponent up.
