im sorry about before since i was last online ive calmed down as i say im giving him a chance however i cant see how he is going to get rid of "journeymen" if they qualify for tournaments even if they don't fit in to the profile of a player he likes.


if they gain a pro tour card on a reduced numbers tour, then qualify for events then they will no longer be journeymen though :huh:

I am going to wait until next season to see what Barry Hearn does before completely judging him. I like the idea of the tournament in Berlin, as snooker is popular over there. At least one more tournament over in Europe wouldn't go amiss either.

I'm not sure what to make of his talk about one-frame shoot out tournament. It's not the structure, but it was his talk about The Grim Reaper coming out, and people booing the loser of the frame out of the building. I don't want a circus, I want a snooker game.

But lets judge him next season.
