Well i dont seriously believe that no other snooker player has done this.

The fact that nowadays a player could near enough jaw a pot deliberately and get away with it is tempting enough before its possible you have the Russian mafia on your case about it.

I've text Roman Abramovich to see ifs its mafia related, just waiting for a reply the now.

Remember the Maguire & Burnett game?

That just looked 100% fixed, he missed like 6 sitters in one frame, and as both players were in on it, Maguire was playing badly because he had the pressure of clearing the frame as quick as possible!

But, even if he has taken a bribe then i dont care, he is still the Wizzzzard of Wishaw!

And he's still 'World' Number 1

Team John Higgins!

I might make a "Team John higgins" group on boatbook

If it was a set up by News of The Wolrd does that not mean that it was nothing to do with the mafia? There never was going to be any payment it was someone trying to see what the 'top' sportsmen would do when offered something like this.

Well John's manager said they were in fear for their safety.

Im pretty sure if they turned up in "i work for the news of the world" shirt, then they'd of clocked on to it being a set up .

Maybe a Journo went Undercover as part of the mafia, or just hired a couple of doorman to impersonate the mafia?

All you have to do is buy the Sun 2morro and find out! :L

Yeah obviously they didn't know at the time, but a couple of comments on the first page have said that it might have been the mafia.

brilliant!!!

Thing is the world number 1 is agreeing to lose frames its insane. fair enough if he was ranked like 30, but i think hes a fool, why is he in Russia anyway, lmao

Unless Tony Drago's got a big gaff over there or something, i dont know,

Dodgy dodgy dodgy!!!

Haha!

Party @ Tony's Gaff!

Love it!

Heeeey, wtf, where was my invite?

Thanks for nothing! haha!
