    very angry?? don't know thought he came across as very composed considering

    wonder will he spill the beans on other players/promoters/managers etc....or will this be the beginning to others being exposed??

    Doubt it, unless he has hard evidence, he would be get in serious legal hassle if he started accusing others and I doubt his finances which would have been stretched after this would be able for it. I imagine he will say its widespread but won't give names or anything that could get him in to much hassle.

    i always thought the punishment given out to hann was very severe, 8 years was far too much considering lee has been given 12years, which effectively is the end of his career.

    To be fair they were probably just totally fed up with him at that time, always in trouble would have been a smaller ban I reckon if he was squeaky clean before that I reckon.

    Listened to it and to be honest Lee is beginning to sound very desperate.

    Not a big fan of the Daily Mail but Matt Lawtons piece sums it up really ....

    he has no chance with the appeal zack, like you say it just gets worse with him trying to defend himself, such a wasted talent, with his cue action he could have been a great, who knows

    Bump.
    *****
    Lost his appeal yesterday, predictably enough. Costs against him increased from £40K to £75K. In truth it might as well be £75M for all the chances of him being able to pay.

    Also charged on Monday with 'fraud by false representation' in the sale of a snooker cue. No more details in the article really.

    So he wasn't even convicted of the Higgins match in the end?

    Very odd shots at the end - why didn't he just throw it earlier in the break?
