Ebdon was 100% right to do what he did and i stand by and defend his actions,

surprise surprise none of yous rise above the parapet and defend him and his obvious gamesmanship (Nothing more) because hes Ebdon who yous all hate

had it been Robbo, Higgins, Selby etc then im sure the Geiger counter of Support-O-Mania would already have gone Zoink !!!

A few years ago against Selby in the Worlds Ronnie did a similar thing, but nobody made a big deal out of it. It was a clear touching ball situation, but O'Sullivan kept insisting they weren't touching and behaved a lot worse with the referee than Ebdon...

I think the Chinese referee should have said to Ebdon that without the yellow he could send the red from that position to the left side cushion, but with the yellow in the way he could only find the cushion somewhere close to the pocket. This is a lot simpler explanation than putting more balls on the table.

BTW whatever Ebbo tried or did not try - he's a bit weird TBH - he stood no chance with Ivy. She's a charming lady but she's assertive and there is no messing with her. That's why she's the Head Referee here at the APTC. Everyone trusts and respects her.

this chinese women is far better than michaela tabb

i got no gripe with ebdon challenging the referee because that his right whether he was correct or incorrect with the freeball questioning he was wrong to go on and on about it for five minutes despite the referee explaining numerous times

Indeed, and as a ref myself I'm happy to explain a decision I've made to a player.

I do think Ebdon was wrong to insist it but I don't doubt his right to query the decision if he doesn't agree with it. However like I've said I think calls for disciplinary proceeding against Ebdon are over the top

maybe but it the accumulation of events that what i was thinking of if this was an isolated incident then fair enough but he been doing funny stuff for a while his shenanigans against cope a few years ago were disgusting he was a wpbsa board member he knew what he was doing in effect he was paying the referees wages

firstly the referee does speak english it seems to me Ebdon is the one that doesn't speak english i suggest next time she should talk chinese he might then understand a simple rule.
