Ronnie remains at war with Williams

RONNIE O’SULLIVAN was in no mood to extend the olive branch to Welsh rival Mark Williams as the bad feeling between the pair erupted again last night.

O'Sullivan followed Williams into round two of the Citywest Irish Masters with a hard-fought 5-3 victory over Stuart Bingham and it was not long before he took another verbal swipe at his one-time stablemate.

Responding to comments in O'Sullivan's autobiography in which the Rocket said he knew of no one in snooker who likes Williams, the left-hander from Cwm said: "Stupid people say stupid things."
