    Fergal doesn't take kindly to stuff like that! I turned down a (difficult) pot against him at a recent exhibition in Glenalbyn which he duly commented on before knocking in the highest broke of his 10 frames! When did Spawell reopen?

    Hey Oasis, Spawell has been open a while again now. Place has been done up and looks great. €12 per hour a bit steep though!

    Fergal's a lovely guy, but an "exhibition" with him? Really? Fergal O'Brien of all players would not be on my exhibition attendance wishlist.

    That's interesting. I used to play there regularly in my youth but I haven't been there in a few years now.

    Just wondering how was it determined who would play a frame with Fergal?. Would you pay x amount or money for the priviledge or would local club members have a draw or something?.

    Fergal is doing well at the minute in the UK Championship qualifiers. He plays his next round match tomorrow against a vulnerable Barry Hawkins for a place in the finals after disposing of Jamie Jones 9-4 yesterday.

    Where I play it was done on the basis of interest from league players
