2010 Crucible Cue Zone

[Bigmeek]

Does anyone know if "The Cue Zone" will be in Sheffield this year? I thought I'd read somewhere that it was getting kicked into touch to save money.
For those not familiar with Sheffield, the Cue Zone is located outside The Crucible. Its got a full size table in it and Hazel and co transmit from there.

It begs the question, just how much was Jimie Michie getting for his services?!

I hope so as well, one last tournament for the big white potting shed. Maybe it has a new life as a conservatory!

I think you will find that it is there this year.

Not really bothered about it not being there, has been rubbish the last couple of years. Was much better in 06/07 when it was brighter and they didn't have the studio there.

Are you sure Ferret? I'm sure I've read that it's not unless there has been a very recent change of plan.

[ferret]

I am sure yes, what you have heard is the PROPOSAL that the CueZone be scrapped, but how can you scrap something that is still under contract by the BBC in Sheffield for another 2 years?

I'll be really surprised if it isn't there. Del Hill will be running things there I expect. Really enjoyed playing 6 reds on there last year. They also had a few Wii consoles set up with the WCS Real game.

I hope it is there, it adds to the whole atmosphere of the event.

My Dad went past the Crucible yesterday afternoon and there was nothing there. In previous years they have started putting it up as early as a week before
