World Championship a-changing

[Dunney]

I am a firm believer that the World Championship should stay at a great venue like The Crucible.
But with struggles for money and sponsorship does anyone think that it should go where it is most popular, overseas to China?
Plus, I hear that they are going to pilot a game of snooker that is quicker with less reds, has anyone else heard this?:snooker:

If that's the last and only possibility then a big yes.

I've said this before... or should have.

The UK is the cradle of civilization snooker.
Snooker being the exotic bast*rd Colonial Indian lovechild of Black Pool and Pyramids, reminds me...
where the hell are The Royals when you need them!?!?
Isn't preservation of unique and world-renowed Brit culture, like pop music, cricket and bestiality one of their only responsibilities now?
Great that she gives Steve and John and Mark and Jimmy and Stephen titular teats treats...
but...
W(here) T(he) H(ell) I(s) T(he) M(oney) when you NEED IT?

Ma'am... I know you're a forum member... please... PLEASE give your subjects a Royal Tournament...
stick it in Royal Abert's Hall if you like... give free tickets to the needy (me)... give as a litter of tournaments... each named for one of your spawn or theirs...

What!?!? You say you can't afford it?
Sell off a few of your DaVinci's to Bill Gates...

For God and Countries Sake... We Can Do It with your loot! Yes. We can!

Thank you for listening [ cap-in-hand, bowing correctly ]
