No, he seemed to be complaining about the table or something, often likes a bit of a post match
chat does Peter.

That was a tough game. There seemed to be a determination in White to win that after that free ball incident and going 2-1 down. Ebdon not happy at the end, moaning about the table. Said it was garbage and it's usually worse than that. It did have a lot of bounce though.Comment

Definitly could see a more determined jimmy after the incident, and fair play to him, he dug deep and got a good victory.Blown awayComment

Michaela called a free ball which would have given Jimmy an easy blue ... Peter queried it so Michaela put a test ball next to the yellow (the ball on) and confirmed her decision, a free ball ... Peter continued to whinge so Michaela offered to get a senior referee and got Jan Verhaas ... Jan spent a couple of minutes looking at it and eventually concluded "no, not a free ball" and play went on on that basis ...Originally Posted by nrage View Post
Poor refereeing in my opinion ... I can understand why Michaela offered to get a senior ref's opinion (her words, not mine) although I'd have preferred her to stand her ground ... and I'm even less impressed with Jan Verhaas who came in and decided it as if he was refereeing the match - which he wasn't ... I think he should have unequivocally backed up Michaela's decision ...
It was a judgement call ... Peter thought it wasn't, Michaela thought it was and called "free ball" and, quite properly, reviewed her decision and confirmed "free ball", Jan thought it wasn't and for the record I thought it was (my best guess from the standard camera angle) ...
I thought the referee's decision was final but apparently not ... whatever next, maybe they should do phone votes a la Strictly or the X-Factor? Phone xxx-xxxx if you think it's a free ball or yyy-yyyy if you don't ...
I am very disappointed - my view is that Jan Verhaas should have simply stated that Michaela is the match referee and her decision is final whether it is right or wrong ...Comment

Correct Dandy. I don't blame Ver Haas really. I blame Tabb. She should never have put herself in that position. At least the decision didn't affect the result of the match. Shame Jimmy lost his 2nd game but Mcgill obviously played well, so good luck to him.Comment

Very odd situation, and seems quite untypical of Michaela who can be quite forceful when she wants to. Seems quite untypical of Ebdon too. If I was Michaela, also I'd have been a bit annoyed that Jan Ver Haas didn't back her up, but I didn't see it.Originally Posted by DandyA View Post
It might have been quite clearly not a free ball. Without seeing it, it's hard to say who was in the wrong in this instance.Comment
