I don't think Trump will enjoy playing Higgins. He certainly didn't in the 2011 final. Will be a proper test, but I hope he comes through it.
|
|
By:
it's going to be a proper naughty final, alun. proper norty snooker
|
|
By:
whats wilsons payout for the semis?
|
|
By:
norty, awwww thats so norty!
|
|
By:
Higgins could grind him down who knows
Hopefully Trump beats him 6-2 in the first session and then he'll relax in my opinion |

Alain Robidoux would have been cursing in French Canadian into his Chinese water at that showboating.
|
|
By:
think its 100k
|
|
By:
very nice
|
|
By:
Alain Robidoux would have played for snookers with only the white left on the table
|
|
By:
how much tax u reckon he has to pay on that
|
|
By:
none, prize money in sport isn't taxable
|
|
By:
They should put Robidoux in charge of the Crucible for this event. With any luck he's bring in a team of crack Police Dogs, specially trained to sniff out anyone in the sub-prime audience guilty of breaking wind.
|
|
By:
Tyson Fury always moans about tax though?
Sure they pay tax, wonder |
|
By:
|
|
By:
they must pay tax of some kind, all the footballers and golfers have accountants!
|
|
By:
isn't that for endorsements though & still like that
|
|
By:
advertising, sponsors etc
|
|
By:
An amateur athlete who receives only an Athlete Personal Award is unlikely to be taxable on this income. However, if an athlete is organising their activities in a business-like manner and with a view to making a profit, then their income, including any APA, will probably be taxable.
|
|
By:
I always thought the prize money itself was non-taxable
in some events 1st round losers win nothing they've effectively "worked" for nothing doesn't have any legal basis to class sporting competition as work |
|
By:
Never thought of that Alun. Perhaps a crack double act Alun and Alain’s sub prime sniffer dogs.
|
|
By:
none, prize money in sport isn't taxable
Indeed. Just ask Lester 'Pay Me In Cash Please" Piggott. |
|
By:
Yes, professional sports persons are taxed.
I’m sure they are adept at tearing the arse out of expenses etc. though. |

By:
dudd v john boy it is

|
By:
with no interval the knowledgable Crucible crowd will have to put up with two hours of Dennis and JV trick shots

Dennis V Davis reenactment of their final frame episode 560

|
By:
Surely the has been is out of steam now, an emotional wreck after today.
Time for a new ‘young’ champion. Arise Judd, and get yourself some half decent chalk with a million season ffs. |
|
By:
Bill Werbeniuk famously tried to have the lager he drank as a tax-deductible expense.
|
|
By:
18-10 or 18-11 Trump
Can't see Higgins living with him if Trump turns up |
|
By:
Alun, perhaps with this early finish all the sub primes clothing could be examined for evidence of wind breaking.
And banned or preferably beaten. |
