So let me get this straight from a normal race to 7 from your handicaps in a normal t9b event , the race your playing with shotgun to 21 which is 3x the normal race to 7 your actually asking for 3x the normal start hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha "fancy giving 12 start shotgun" lol lol

You are getting a 3 start to 10 at T9B... But remember that's tournament play, when its a money match I think it's slightly different but again just my opinion. Ok let's go with alternate break.
Race to 10 I have to play perfect and hope you make mistakes.... Race to 25 gives both players a fair crack to get going....

I would never have attended the. Tournament had I have known they had put me on -5. No one has ever been on -5 before and quite frankly it was rediculous..... But that's another story.
I'll start on -4 and you scratch. Can't say fairer than that.

Wow what a boring read. More action watching paint dry. Craig you have won 90% of the comp you have entered off -4 at what point do you think it should change? You also beat Brian off -4 racks to 7... only a lunatic would take the same handicap to 25. In my opinion race to 21 Brian would need 8 rack start for it to be a fair match and I think you would still have punters wanting to back you, that's no disrespect to Brian as you are the UK's best non full time player by a mile.

I sort of echo what Phil's saying but know you're never gonna agree to that, actually I was thinking 10 to 25. Going back to an earlier post, I will offer what I am asking you for to any +3/+4 player at T9B to show it's not such a crazy ask and it's not one way traffic!!!

Not sure what your on about Brian? I have offered you what you offered the +2 / +3 players.... But it's totally different as those players will give you chances in every rack? Anyone on a - handicap will be closer, the difference between a -1 player and a -4 player is significantly different from a -1 to a +3 player?
Phil - wrap up mate, I don't really take your point or your view, anyone that gets a 147 on a snooker table and then plays off -1 is seriously trying it on in my humble humble opinion....
Anyway Brian, I thought we were making progress here for a while there.... Can you just speak English and tell me what the deal is. What start you want, and I'll just say yes or no. You either Wana play or you don't? I fully respect anyone walking away if they don't fancy the game.

When there's hard earned cash on the table egos go out the window, it's just business. I've offered a 4 start to 29 with me starting on -4 and you scratch. I'll change that to straight race to 25, me on scratch and you +4.

I think we're miles apart Craig, thanks anyway. Have to wait to play you in tourney and have a bottle on the side.
To be fair it's probably best if I find someone my standard to have a lumpy punt with. Good luck.

-1? I have never been -1. Yes I made a 147... 2 in fact but as u know that's a totally different game. Your a smart guy Craig and a very good player but I don't understand why you would miss out on a money game for this kind of money by trying to only give a handicap that would make you a 1/10 shot and trying to get evens. Madness

Same old bolix on ereee .. 2 Ipswich boys wanting action !! Then someone wanting to have t9b x3 handicap with his opponent staying the same lol aswell as what rules, table, chalk and cue etc we have to use .. Wildman giving it he had 2 147's !!! Must of been on the xbox !!! Talking of paint drying wildman that's a lot more entertaining then you .. I've seen milk turn quicker before you attempt to clear up 1 rack of 9ball #FACT

I wouldn't say I'm a slow player Rich? Perhaps you play to fast and that's why the balls don't go in the holes. anyway guys good luck getting some action. [ This message was edited by: wildman147 on 2015-01-19 00:57 ]
