I'm one of these people who usually watches the World Snooker Championship every year, do you watch the game on tv and if so who are your favourite players from years gone by and today?

I'm currently watching this years final between Graeme Dott and Peter Ebdon, it's not been great so far but it should improve hopefully!

I always like to see my fellow Irishman, Ken Doherty doing well, he's won the World Championship once in 1997.:)

I've never been into Snooker much. I've played pool occasionally though.

Well, Graeme Dott beat Peter Ebdon 18-14 last night to become World Snooker Champion.

It was the Scot's first ever World Championship title.

I've played pool quite a bit myself and i enjoy it! (when i'm doing well of course!)

Snooker in the 70s and 80s was a big draw on tv; but nowadays, its wilted somewhat. Darts is more popular now. A game that I actually play for a League Team, in a pub not 300 yards from my home.

I have not actually played snooker for a long time but am fairly good at it.
