Why does the full frame between McGuire and Burnett never get posted on youtube ? I do remember someone here saying it sometimes gets put up but then it gets taken down again as soon as it posted
From what I've read on these pages I'm very intrigued by this frame which people have stated has been the most blatant example of cheating in the history of the game

I've never seen the whole frame but from the green onwards it's clear as day that Burnett was trying to chuck it.

Yes it did and the blue was suspect as well I seem to remember. I mean it went in but it wasn't the correct shot.

Can Stephen Lee appeal against this judgement? I hope so. He should blame his manager. And his dietitian.

The face that spoke a thousand words (or maybe ££'s in this case), I never seen anybody look as nervous in my life.

Seeing a lot of comments like that. It's not a snake hiss take, it's how it works. The life ban will come tomorrow.

This from PSB Matt who is a solicitor:
"World Snooker confirming that the Lee decision will be delivered tomorrow following a hearing today. Makes sense, counsel for Lee and the WPBSA were presumably heard today and a final decision wouldn't have been made before that. So then the sentence and the wording of it will be finalised tonight and delivered tomorrow, so we shall see."

Life time ban will be brave decision. Notoriously hard to make stick, almost certain appeal by Lee. The sporting arbitration people get twitchy at the thought.

I think the fact he's 39 makes it an easier decision to enforce. If he was 20 then you'd think an appeal would be successful within 10 years or so.

I had this conversation with somebody the other day. He was calling for something shorter than a lifetime ban. (Which I was disagreeing with, I believe somebody caught in matchfixing should be banned for life.)
The thing is though, in this particular case, it might be inconsequential. If Lee was given a ten year ban, would he even bother trying to come back in his late 40s?

Saying that, I think his age shouldn't be a consideration in what punishment is given.

Saying that though 10 years is an awful long time to stay out. There's no way he could make a comeback. Even Ronnie would struggle.
Fransisco got 8 years(?). Lee was done on multiple charges so I'd be surprised if he got less than 15. Job centre for you my son.

Problem is it's down to the arbitration people not World Snooker, and Lee will have correctly argued that the offenses took place before the change in rules which have a lifetime ban as the standard and anything less as exceptional circumstances. The Hann case could be seen as a precedent under the old rules.
Will be delighted if it IS a lifetime ban, but probably just as pleased if it was an effective lifetime ban by giving several years for each offense but not having them run concurrently. Fearing 8 years starting from when he was suspended is more likely though.
