Christ like Skull said it's "just" a broken ankle, he'll recover well I'm sure, and even if he doesn't the Masters certainly wouldn't be in jeopardy.

Your're acting like Ronnie broke both his arms and legs... just chill, unless you want me to mention THAT pink... <laugh>

Where does it say that his ankle is broken? It's certainly swollen but we don't know much apart from that.

I expect him to play on Thursday, no way he will miss this.

But here it says it's broken

but judging by the image on the first link it's just swollen, so he can recover in time, i hope :gag:

Do you think he would play (worst case only of course) in a wheelchair?

I can't remember from last year.

You can do it but not too often and abusive of course. For instance, I've seen Robbo doing it a couple of times when the frame was live, Ebdon too I've seen him do it, others do it aswell, but this only happens if the frames have say more than 40, 50 minutes and so on.

Sorry should have clarified I meant as an audience member.

Best place to sit is in the balcony well out of the way and better seats than down tableside IMO

I thought you weren't allowed to sit in the balcony as it was for players families, press etc?

Good for you then that you get to watch it at the venue.

Do you live near York?


Study at the uni, so I get student discounts for the early as well.
