DT can't resist drawing those white lines all over the table can he? And how
come he gets to use the 'White Line' machine exclusively? Why isn't Clive
allowed to get near it?

'..now if he comes off two cushions...let me draw the lines..there you
are...the perfect escape.'

Yet DT is the first one to say they know their snooker in (insert name
of city) and they are very knowledgable about the game .

Yet he seems to think of the viewers at home as being as thick as pig
shit who despite having seen the same angles used about a million times
before - need to be reminded of them .

Re: Willie Thorne

Kruster, you have hit the proverbial nail on the head.

DT:
'...we call this potting into a 'Blind pocket'...long tedious explanation
follows...'
'...must go as close as possible to its spot in a direct line with the top
cushion as possible...long tedious explanation follows...'

I suspect we just have the DT soundboard.
