Re: Coral Scottish Open Final !!!!
Higgins showed what a true gentleman he is by offering Marco Fu the chance to celebrate, at his (John's) own house.
He's a truly great ambassador to the game.
The reason certain fans have 'got in in for' Higgins is because he's a threat to Ronnie. Nothing more, nothing less.
I don't any of them 'having a go' at Leo Fernandez - a current tour professional who's serving a ban for match fixing. He returns in August, I believe.
They also conveniently overlook this admission of an approach from Ronnie.
I mean, if he'd been filmed undercover, saying, "If anyone could get away with it, I could. I could just play one-handed, or left-handed or just put a towel over my head, and pretend I was going nuts."
Does that make the Rocket a match-fixer? No. Admitting you could fix matches or even saying you would fix matches is very different from actually doing it.
Neither Ronnie or John has ever been charged for match-fixing.
