Mark says he doesn't understand why Ronnie enters then withdraws from the tournament and it affects the draws,rankings,sponsors,seedings and all.He has got a point as it must be a right downer for the fans that turn up hoping to see Ronnie play only to find out he's withdrawn.
Good win for Mark Allen and the 12,000 euros should come in handy for the fines he racked up.The Belgian crowd turned up for the final and enjoyed it.Maybe next time they will get to see a longer frame final,4 the winner is too short for a final.
Wonder if Ronnie will give his views.
He should be the one with the most to complain about.
Marco has had Ronnie's number.
Probably has the best record of the pros going head to head against Ronnie.
Mark has a point.If you were a new player on the scene but got a 1st round defeat in a few overseas events pretty soon you would be struggling to pay the fee's involved.
It's been a while since Mark Allen won something & now he has 25,000 euros to shout about so well done Mark Allen & congratulations but you just know he's gonna say something outta place soon or say a swearie & collect a fine.:thumbup:
