I just find him to be a bit of a knobhead.

Very entertaining to watch, and seems like a pleasant chap.
He's got tattoos and he's young. Is that what bothers you?

It's certainly not that he's young. The game needs more young players coming through.
I think it's the fact that he shaves his head, but not his beard.
If you can't be bothered to shave, that's one thing. But it seems odd to be lazy about shaving your chin, but enthusiastic when it comes to shaving your head.

For me, it's a number of reasons why I can't warm to him no matter how hard I try. The following things about him irritate me:
- The tattoos
- 'Ghetto' dress style
- Ric Flair strut around the table like he owns the place
- Laissez-faire attitude
- Careless shot selections and execution
- His Belgian nationality

Could have been worse, I suppose. He might have been Pakistani or Nigerian.

I have no opinion on that, other than the fact that it might be nice to see more players from outside of the UK and China competing in the top 16.

What the buck has his nationality got to do with anything racism of any kind will not be tolerated on snooker island and will result in a very long ban now ive warned you and everyone else next person gets 2 months ban cant say you not been warned.

To be fair, Cloud was just having a bit of fun with Holden if I read it correctly. Unless Cloud tells us different, I certainly did not think it was racism.
I understand the job of moderator must be very difficult and take a lot of time, but on this occasion I think Wildey has good intentions, but misunderstood.

I assumed he was joking too.
Still, it's always nice to see Wildey laying a verbal smackdown.

A Nagasaki-scale overreaction.

It cannot be racism since Belgian is not a race.
And yes, I was joking. I absolutely detest the Belgians, but I most certainly do not hate them.
