may have been to do with the 'sponsorship'

of course if we believe that he was just saying anything to play along then it doesn't matter does it!

It's quite plain from the video he was happy to go along with it, and the fact is he didn't report it afterwards which is contrary to the sporting code; he's bang to rights and everyone knows it.
And that is what he was found 'guilty' of.

As I say, I am not totally sure what happened but there is enough doubt for me.

i know what money laundering is - as i say you dont even know what that was in relation to because the video was most likely snipped. if the convo was only 11 minutes why not just show it all.


i dont really give a toss either way to be honest.

anyway - how come Ken D is commentating on matches. dont they usually wait til they are knocked out before appearing on TV?

You are John Higgins, aicmfp! smile

Nobody else could possibly believe that, logically.
Your logic is that you have seen a clip and that provides conclusive proof.

I say theer COULD BE more to it - esp when we factor in it was a NOTW set up.

The only logical conclusion is that there can be doubt until you have seen all the evidence.

If I am on trial I hope you are not on the jury!

Alan McManus, bravely sporting tartan trousers, is leading Higgins 5-1 smile



'Krafty' Ken has made it through and would love to see 'Angles' McManus do the same (especially given he's playing against Higgins).

Edge of the seat stuff tonight in the Selby White match. Piss poor quality in the break building department but some of the simple misses coupled with decent safety play made it a cracker to watch. 10-9 to Selby in the end.

Higgins McManus play to a finish tomorrow morning. 6-3 to McManus but have a feeling that Higgins may nick it. Hope I'm wrong.

Snooker, over this longer format, really makes for good tv.

Edit - looks like this Ding match is going to a decider as well.

Great finale for the Ding-Wasley match! Down to the final pink in the final frame! Ding's struggles at the Crucible continue but Wasley had a great debut.

Just watching the replay of Robertson v Williams and the camera zooms in on Williams' shirt cuff to show the easy iron label that he forgot to remove.

If his Mum sees that he'll be in trouble..

Well done Ronnie - a few years ago he would have given up a match like that once he went behind.
