Fu's been quiet hasn't he since his incredible form last season? He was the man to beat at one stage.

No.
The China Champs was the first proper one, offered same prize money as this, the only thing missing was a Best of 17 semis which this one has.

True, but what I like about that man is that he's honest about it. I've always said that about him.

Cloud is controversial, but you need characters like that in a forum to keep them interesting, whether you agree with his views or not. I disagree with a lot of his views on snooker, but without his like, what's there to debate?

What's the connection? Is Ronnie going to read this forum, snd retire to annoy cloud?

I really don't see the problem with partisan support. Isn't that what sport is about? Pick your team/man and through hell and high water support them? Cloud is a wind-up merchant and Wildey bites! :)
