Should we ban the people that make careless errors?

Typical WST not to respond and explain the apparent contradiction

Obviously even WST think that the Shoot Out shouldn't be a ranking tournament.

I think that WST shouldn't be a snooker organization.

The Macau thing has been orchestrated by Ronnie, it's his show, he's said this many times. It's the start of regular exhibition tournaments out there. They are big 5 day tournaments with lots of money involved. This is effectively the breakaway tour he was mooting a few years ago.
I feel there is a schism happening between Ronnie and World snooker.
The Finland exhibition was barely on their radar.

I’m not doubting that Ronnie would encourage something like the Macau exhibition(s), but wouldn’t we expect him to be one of the ‘Macau 5’ if he actually orchestrated it? He wasn’t officially associated with it as far as I understand. I’d be interested in learning more about his involvement if anyone can cite any evidence pointing to it.

Yeah he does seem to infer that he’s in some way behind it all. Interesting.
