There are rumours circulating tonight over the Snooker islands predictions competition for the german masters.
A welsh man reportedly tried to bribe young patrick lowson who was the TD and young patrick informed the relevant authorites.

An investigation led by ronald leader of SI is under way .....

Well done Mark Williams. Another defeat from well in front would have been disastrous for this confidence.

Now it's time for him to have a good run at the Crucible again. When was his last quarter? 2006? His last semi?

Mark Selby just showed tonight how tough he is to beat in a final.

The Crucible will answer many questions this year. I'm really looking forward to it.

I thought I told you to keep your bloody trap shut. Prediction contests were carried out with integrity

i loved this event from start to finish.

i think there is scope to extend it even just a day so we get both semi finals and 2 Quarter Finals live on TV

i loved the open plan because as with the UK 2 Matches is played in boxed in cubicles. with this all matches had the feel of a TV Match even though they wasent because the players had a large crowd to play 2.

i think he has a good chance even if higgins plays...

williams standard of play this week was far greater than what it was at the UK.

Great event, well supported.

Well played Wiiliams, and Selby for reaching the final.

I would like to see less tournaments in Britain and more in Europe.

The game is ready to move on.

I don't think it needs any messing with whatsoever. I thought it was perfect. A static camera on the satellite tables is all that's needed to make it even better.

The Welsh up next - now there's an event that needs a revamp. I can see this being the last one unless something dramatic happens. The fact players are playing for Crucible spots gives it that extra edge but the German Masters was the one to win out of all remaining events leading to the Worlds.

I like the Welsh Open, but that's possibly only because I've been. And even I must admit, the bit I like from it is the quaint charm it possesses. Newport is a dump, granted. But the fact that it is in a rather small leisure centre, somehow adds to the charm for me. It's a bit of a squeeze getting everybody in, but the fact you can nip out and have a pint or a bag of chips overlooking a swimming pool after matches is so random, it makes the tournament for me. <laugh> And there is more opportunity at Newport to meet the players then there is at Wembley. Hotels are a lot cheaper though then some place, but at the same time are a lot crapper then most places.

If this year is the last year, I'll miss it. But will always remember my visits to it. If only the first round matches weren't best of seven, but best of nine with a MSI. :sad: If it hadn't have been so close to The Masters, I'd have gone last year. But I understand they will probably have to move it at the very least. Playing in Leisure Centres in dumps like Newport won't fit in with Barry Hearn's plans to revitalise the game.

Which would be a shame, in my opinion, as I think the Newport Centre is a cracking venue. Even if the town of Newport isn't. <laugh>

Terrific tournament in pretty much all aspects.

Can anyone else see this becoming a sort of 'European Championship' as a 4th major if the trend of tournaments and popularity continues?

to think youve thought im anti-long format <doh>

im PRO-ALL formats of the game <ok>

and after the crowds in Germany last week i think the EPTC has done its work in Germany and should concentrate on other European countries.

German support is clearly there, so i think 2 full rankers can be sustained there.

At risk of taking too big a step too soon, im starting to think that the PTCs held in Sheffield behind closed doors are already not required as at worst we have 9 full rankers next season plus 6 EPTCs and would prefer to see more full rankers held over some of these 6 weekends the PTCs in Sheffield take up.
