Yeah indeed Casey. But according to what AlexPaul said, in the morning session they won't televise Robbo v Dott, a shame really. I don't know if it is already official, but my guess is they will put on streamed tables the Judd and Selby matches. I woulnd't mind if Selby or indeed Judd were put in an outside one so that Robbo and Dott match could be televised.

what gets me is World Snooker/Barry Hearn changed the UK to get all Matches televised so that we dont miss out on Great Matches and yet in China they dont give a stuff.

Below is my report to Day 2 of the Haikou World Open and the little announcement Ronnie O'Sullivan made earlier.

Should be a good day of action tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing Selby take on wonderkid Lyu Haotian (Will be sensational if the youngster wins that one) and a classic Scottish battle between John Higgins and Alan McManus - a little flashback to the early-mid 1990s lol.

Hope you're all enjoying it and ITV's coverage.

All the best,
Nigel

the problem is no-one wants to watch Jono, so whoever meets him in the draw is likely to be put on a non-tv table - happens time and time again. Its a shame for Dotty who places a nice game himself. :wave:

robbo gets plenty of tv games where as dotty is rarely on 1 when there are 4 games to pick from.

shows your comment up as BS

Asked about Ronnie O'Sullivan's intention to return to to snooker at the World Championship, Higgins added: "It's good for the sport, it would have been crazy for him not to come back. Personally I couldn't care less what Ronnie will do."

Good post. Robbo lacks the quality needed at this level. Dott will steamroller him and good riddance to bad rubbish. <ok>

yeh the UK and format change was supposedly dictated to Hearn by the Beeb who then go and ditch their 2 red button 2 table interactive coverage anyway.

as it is though, going forward with the flat structure in the future, theres going to be a lot of big names not getting their matches screened.

You will have no need to watch her again - once Robbo is put to the sword by the squeaky Scot.

Will they be taking 128 players to WUXI?
