World Snooker Championship: Anthony McGill 'can go all the way'

A new nickname? 'Answers on a postcard'

But there is another problem for McGill ahead of his next entry into the Crucible arena against Fu, the world number 14 - what does Master of Ceremonies Rob Walker call him?

His previous introduction as 'The Smiling Assassin' made him uncomfortable as he told the BBC he felt under pressure to look happy, when he was trying to focus on the task at hand.

He joked: " Maybe I need to change my name by deed poll! I think that would be the easiest as I've been trying to come up with something myself but nothing goes.

"When I was introduced as 'The Smiler' I felt I had to smile when I wanted to concentrate on winning, so maybe ditch that," said McGill.

"I dunno, answers on a postcard please."

Anthony 'The Ginger Ninja' McGill.....

What do yo think ? :rolleyes::D:thumbup:
 
Be Grateful You Don't Buy Tickets
http://www.inside-snooker.com/snooker/2016/4/21/crucible-tickets-the-viagogo-issue

Prices start from around £20, and even the last session of the final, at £75

Taking the final session as a specific example, one of the premium tickets, this was sold out months ago, but from November there were 50-60 tickets available on Viagogo at prices of up to £795.

Barry Hearn
“The real problem is we sell our tickets too cheaply, but that is not what the average punter wants to know.

“I don’t condone tickets on sale for £795, and I don’t criticise it. If the market values the ticket at £400 or £795, the real idiots are us for selling them too cheaply.

“The whole issue of pricing and secondary ticketing is something we are reviewing, and the easiest way out is for me to vastly increase prices. That might get me more criticism than now.”
