Am I missing something?
The Biado-Filler match has gone to a shoot-out after 2 sets.
It would be quicker to do a lag and then do 1 rack to decide the winner.
Shoot-outs take a long time with good players.
I don't have a problem with Gorst playing for Team USA. He lives in the USA and is paying taxes here.
And it's not like Russia is part of European culture anyway, they are only in Europe because of geography.
My problem is the absence of Filler. The credibility of the tournament has been...
The WPA should set up their own version of the Mosconi Cup.
Call it the Strickland Cup.
Team USA could involve Strickland, Archer, Bergman, Dechaine and one other.
Team Europe could have Filler, Ouschan, Feijen and a couple others.
Kaci skipped the US Open and didn't get banned. So I don't see why Filler would get banned for skipping Hanoi.
I suspect the WNT contract gives Matchroom flexibility to pretty much do anything. So I don't think Joshua has any legal rights.
Filler being banned by Matchroom is exactly why I...
He was pressured by Matchroom to make that statement.
If he didn't make that statement, I suspect Matchroom would be doing the same thing.
Matchroom banning Filler is evidence that pool should not be run by a private company.
Pool needs to be protected by the WPA.
Matchroom want USA to win, so weakening Europe is in their best interests.
I suspect that Matchroom and other WNT players are bitter that Filler won lots of money in New Zealand and China.
This might be their way of getting back at him.
Glad to hear Matchroom did their best to give fans value for money.
If you're going to cut 2 matches from the schedule, you need to replace them with exhbition matches.
3 games is not good enough.
Matchroom are ripping off fans.
They should at least ask players to play a few exhbition matches for the fans who turned up.
Feel for Matchroom
Awkward position of having to cut matches?
Kaci is a awful. I would never pick him in a team match.
Wrong attitude and somebody who is not a team player.
He is the European version of SVB.
