ive told you why it cheapens snooker and makes it a bloody joke that no sponsor would want to touch the sport with a barge poll.

indeed look at all the sponsors wanting to pump loads and loads of money in traditional snooker.

I got your point, but then shall we sit and wait for a magical come-back from snooker? Or what's to be done? As we saw in the entire last week, snooker seemingly lost his appeal and can't get the crowd on their feet as it used to.. So, unless we admit that the sport is not at the level once it was, we're going to be disappointed in the future continuously..

templeton has pointed out why that is it but wait until that is on the upturn who the bloody hell would want to put money in to a sport thats panicking and looking for quick fix crap.

not you wild, we got that

Sport A is desperate... introduces a new event... Millions of people loves it... What possible reason would a sponsor have to ignore the event?

Does it matter if in your eyes its innovation or desperation? Sounds like an interesting idea to me.

going round in circles here now.

i stil have no idea how these panick messures of 6 red and all these quick fix matches will get more people in to watch.....

advertising the GP in glasgow was non existant so why would advertising of these tournaments be any better ???

Well, you say it yourself, advertising GP in Glasgow did not work, so, something new should be tried and these efforts are all about that.. Of course, you can't know if these tournaments will surpass the popularity of normal format events.. But, you miss a simple point. You can't know if they won't. Why not giving the event a chance to prove his quality?

How do you know? did you goto Glasgow? there was lots of advertising, on TV, Radio and local press for the GP, nation wide advertising was sparse as it always has been.

Ja. how much advertising was there in Glasgow for the snooker?

Oh and wild when you make your point in a thread we get it yeah, we all read it coz that is how a thread works you read one post then the other, there is no need to carry on like a broken record through out the whole thread, let others have their comments without you replying to everybodys new post with your thoughts yet again. I am not the only one who is getting annoyed with your constant negative attitude to every thread on the forum.

Gimmicky Crap

No Time for it for Pro Players that going to play it i wouldnt lower myself to go and watch utter rubish.

A bit of a harsh thing to say considering people have worked hard to create this in the interests of snooker.

[chimmykins]

Personally I see nothing wrong with the idea.

[chimmykins]

Sorry clicked wrong button before I was done and can't find an edit button. I also wanted to add that however I don't think it would interest me on a personally.

[Matt_2745]

As I said on Dave's blgo directly, it doesn't interest me at all personally but at least they are trying something which is a good thing.
