Hoping the rumours of match fixing are not true! Alot of people talking at the crucible this evening.

Come on then, give us some facts?

[ADR147]

it is not match fixing it is a poor shot!

[scottley]

Kind of what i thought but i thought i'd ask, bit of a silly thing to say in the first place lol.

if that is match fixing i must be subliminally doing it a lot!

[jlowap]

Yes mate that's the clip..... If you go to 1:10 mins you'll see the black ball in off, it brings Xiao level at 4-4

Personally I don't think there's anything sinister in it, to be honest I think match fixing card gets flung about much to easily!!

Yes, just found it 1:12:20.. Looks like a stupid mistake to me

[coomsey76]

That's exactly what I thought.....

Not match fixing all Carter tried to do was use screw to kill the white and he just got into it a bit too much, the other part of the shot went as it should have.
This match fixing nonsense needs to stop.

[scottley]

Amen.

We have all done it, you either run the ball in plain and run the risk of it not reaching a baulk cushion therefore maybe allowing a hand on the table or use screw or stun to hold the white tight so it hampers cueing if the object ball doesn't go safe.

We should be enjoying what we are seeing not constantly looking for negative's happy Easter peeps

[roykay]

Watching the black, he struck it about right and the black is heading for the top cush and would have been a good safety shot. Had he struck a breath thicker it would have been even better and no in off.
To suggest match fixing is absurd.

[cyberheater]

Is this shot under suspicion then? Granted, i've only seen it once earlier but no way he could have played to screw that in the middle on purpose?

I don't think so. And in no way do I think he deliberately fouled. I mearly stated that I think he screwed the white in as in that's the shot type he played. I think he was trying to get tight on the cushion.

[cyberheater]

Well done Ken. Good match this.

[scottley]

Only one person has mentioned this match fixing rubbish without a shred of proof or any facts, are they at it again? Look at the balls Ken and Stuart have missed in this opening frame.
