Are you Snooker Loopy? The Chas & Dave Memorial Snooker Thread

He’s served his punishment and deserves a second chance.
Or do you think he should be damned forever after one mistake?

Ordinarilly I would look to forgive and give someone a 2nd chance, but match fixing is something I struggle to forgive, it is the most corrupt form of cheating a player can partake in. Up there with clubs bribing match officials.

It’s not like he was a ringleader. He knew about it and didn’t report it, and he bet on a match. That’s all, and he was a young man in his early twenties. I doubt any of us were impeccable at that age.
For those infringements he was banned for two years.
He’s served his time and should be allowed his second chance.

I was totally peccable in my early-twenties.

Oh, I’m not denying I made some dodgy decisions in my early 20’s. Just look at my ex-girlfriends :rofl:

But I never cheated my teammates or opponantes on the football or cricket fields, and especially if I had been good enough to have been competing at the top level

Watching the World Senior Championship.
Difference in standard is huge.

Referee has a nice cleavage though

That’s Michaela Tabb, who was the first female ref on the professional circuit, back in the early 2000s.
