it all depends who was lobbying for you as you see mens snooker was to important to TV and the players, ladies snooker and pool were not
But if you notice the players are not allowed to smoke on screen as darts players are not allowed to drink anymore
In my opinion this ban will ruin the pool championships as the sponsors paid for so much and the snooker is having a hard time to find new money
And we are always being told fast food is bad for your kids but big Mac is on tv every night but it is not healthy for kids so lets ban it and all the other things that are bad for us
Its strange to me that a drinks firm can still sponsor events but have you ever heard of groups of smoked up guys beating up another as happens with drink
Drink has wrecked many a happy home but has smoking?
Drink related illness has as much cost to the NHS as smokers do
And lets face it would the Embassy Snooker final on TV make you start smoking
