I seen this on BBC snooker web page.

About time this was addressed.

Hearn stated that "There was Gamesmanship " in these apparent toilet tactics.



Robbos legacy in the game. The bloke who got bog breaks banned.

In tennis you have to have someone go with you if you have to leave the court to relief yourself. Maybe they could adopt the same thing in snooker, and we could see if the likes of Robertson, Ebdon, and the other chief offenders are actually expelling urine when they are going out?

Perhaps it would be better if they let the players have a cigarette break after each frame, you might get a few of the players taking up smoking just to get a psychological edge. You would standing outside the venue and you would say "They must between frames, Robbo is coughing his lungs up behind the bike sheds!"
