World Grand Prix snooker quarter final scorecard amused childish minds everywhere

Yep, this was always going to happen

Simon Lloyd

For the childish minds amongst us, Friday’s World Grand Prix snooker was a real treat.

One of the quarter finals saw Hong Kong’s Marco Fu take on Mark King of England for a spot in the semi-final, making the score card for the match look a little bit like Bo’ Selecta Mel B’s favourite swear word.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, plenty were quick to pick up on this, with some unapologetically admitting that they’d waited a long time for such a match up to take place…

And maximum respect to Shanners here, who went to the trouble of encircling the two players’ names just to make sure nobody missed it.

Elsewhere, there were puns a plenty…

… and somebody else that noticed the Bo’ Selecta reference

Not that you’re too bothered by the result (and just to increase this article’s word count a little bit) Marco Fu was victorious, his 4-2 victory enough to see him face Ryan Day in the semi-finals.
