Whats with this Metro newspaper having such an interest in snooker , do they ever present things with a Labour perspective, are they trying to tell us something , like the new freeview news channels GB News and Talk TV who never seem to interview Labour MP's , trying to institutionalise a right of centre viewpoint.

This post took a turn
I believe the site and the paper are fairly distinct entities. Phil Haigh is a huge snooker fan so maybe he petitioned to the editors to write more about snooker and obviously it gets a lot of clicks because they aren’t slowing down on it.

the metro still owned by the daily mail group, no? would explain an anti labour bias.

All newspapers have a bias one way or the other.
Why are we attacking that one particularly? I mean, it's just the free newspaper they give you to read on the train.

Assuming they keep holding this event, will they randomize the pairings?
Would be a shame if Robbo and Mink didn't get the chance to defend their title together.
You'd assume it would be same 4 ladies and more than likely be Robbo, Trump and ROS with only Selby being a major doubt of being in the top 4 next season

All good questions, for which I have no answers.

If they do it again next year, I think they should allow the winning pair to team up again (assuming both can take part) to defend their title, and mix up the rest to see if different pairings can unseat the previous champions.

This would be a logical approach
So I doubt it will happen, as ‘WST’ and ‘logic’ are strange bedfellows…
