I'm obviously aware that it is some time off, but i was wondering what people would be expecting from next years snooker season, including from the players , the BBC and from World snooker.
I myself was expecting World snooker to show a change of tact by starting with a decent and fair punishment with regard to Ronnie O'sullivan but that has been a surprise to me in the way that it followed the old school method of a gentle rap on the knuckles for the players who bring in the most amount of money and interest to the sport. But then i got thinking that this is still part of last season so perhaps things will change for next year.
I did also think that due to the summer break It was a bit like a relationship on a trial split for a few months so while Ronnie is off else where and World snooker were doing their own thing and seeing the people that they wanted to it was the easy way to sort the problem without needing to have to much contact with each other ??
Really i think Ronnie just done enough and pulled the world Championship win out of the bag which made it very hard for World Snooker to punish their number 1 player.
any way i decided that World snooker are going to turn into an amazing company who will come up with some completely new ideas for the sport and a new way of dealing with these issues for the start of the season so watch this space !
For next season i also expect Ronnie to be wearing an I love China T-shirt until the dust settles a little. Shaun Murphy to go on about how he is going to win so much and fail miserably and then to return to the subject of how much charity work he has been doing to make himself and us feel snug and warm. I expect Selby to remain fairly solid next year but a few others to be trying to push him a little more. Ding i feel is going to spend another season miss firing, as he still hasnt sorted his head out. Carter i can see slipping back into being knocked out in the early rounds and not really building on his Worlds final.
So what do you think ?
Will players like Selby be on form again, will Maguire carry on in the same kind of light and show signs of hope , and How will Davis cope in wales with Parrot and White ???
What new Venues will World snooker come up with , will there or should there be a return to some old ones ?
All in all what do you think next season should look like, what changes would you like to see to make it look, feel and run better. and what players do you expect to do well or slip further into the dark depths of Pontins. :snooker:

. I also expect Selby and Maguire to confirm their rising to the top of the table. Murphy will stay solid but probably stumble on the three guys I just mentioned ... He will win the Malta cup however as he seems to be the only one taking that tournie seriously
