While it is not good to see the future of snooker in the balance yet again, at first glance at least it would appear as though this time we do at least have two credible bids on the table from two proven businessmen. Which is better? Truth be told I don’t really know, Hearn has the advantage of his many connections while Davison appears to have the support of the 110sport players and has what is perhaps a less radical blueprint in front of him. There are though a number of questions currently left unanswered about his bid that will hopefully be answered at the upcoming EGM…
