That's the reason why Trump was moaning.

And that's the reason why Ronnie thinks it makes it more exciting.


Put Lewis Hamilton in a slow car and he’s rubbish.

Put Judd Trump on a slow table and he’s rubbish.

Similarly unlovable sportsmen.

Certainly more combative and watchable snooker... and not so many centuries being made. It may not be popular with all the players but I believe it's better for the game.

I agree with you, I prefer it this way.

More skill involved.
