It's good to get a bit of context going because when you get reports like that without hearing anything else, then human nature leads to things being blown out of proportion.
You're welcome Sonny. As I said, it was just a case of adding in what I knew regarding the situation so people could make their own minds up based on that information added to what else they had seen/read. I totally understand your comment regarding human nature and it is of course the job of the media to portray the facts to us and we should not be required to varify what we read.

seriously its nothing personal against Mark or any other player from my perspective on here we just comment on what we saw in the paper or heard
and having people in the know like you put things straight on their behalf as sonny said is a important part of a forum.
Haha! Don't be silly. You can only base your opinions on what you read/see hence why I felt it important to contribute. I understand that in snooker there will be heroes and villans and it wasn't personal against Mark but I think it was important to clarify what had happened.
That said, if we weren't able to express our opinions there would be no forums and that would be criminal!

Haha! I will definitely start writing on here more. You will be sick of the sight of me eventually! I've been at the qualifiers the past couple of days so I've not been able to get online as much as usual. I find it very interesting indeed though reading everyones opinions.
Thanks wildJONESEYE

http://snookerscene.blogspot.com/2010/0 ... f-era.htmlEND OF AN ERA
Back in the day, to use that annoying phrase, snooker on the internet was represented by two websites: www snooker, run by Hermund Ardalen and still going, and Global Snooker Centre, which was the brainchild of Janie Watkins.
Both of these came long before worldsnooker.com, before TSN/110sport, before all the forums and before this blog.
Janie is leaving Global Snooker to work for Paul Mount and his stable of players based at the new South West Snooker Academy in Gloucester.
I would like to place on record my personal thanks for her many efforts in keeping the website updated on all manner of events over the years.
Where would we have been without it?
Her diligence and dedication has allowed many, many thousands of snooker fans around the world to keep up to date with the shifting sands of results, frame scores, breaks etc and she has put in more hours than is either natural or desirable to provide this service.
In my opinion, global-snooker.com is the best snooker website out there. I’m sure its owners will ensure it continues in that vein.
Meanwhile, I wish Janie well in her new role.

Stephen Hendry vs Martion Gould. A big grudge match after the Welsh Open 2009.
Also Neil Robertson has a tricky opener in this one. As he does in the World Open following this tournament, come to that. (Though, it's just occured to me how 'badly' Peter Ebdon must've been playing.)

I see the wildcard-round is on, then. I'm not sure this is the right place for speculation on who the wildcards may be, but what the hay? Any ideas?
