What an absolute bunch of job worths. All those people paid for hotels, tickets etc – now at risk of being wasted due to some idiots thinking that is the right course of action. For what? I’ve forgotten the reason behind the motorway protests now, been far too many different groups and any empathy with their causes was lost ages ago. Prison for max time as possible, reeducation and they can pay back the honest people they might lose money on this. We need to stamp down harder on all this
I wonder what the justification for this is going to be
When someone said there was powder on the snooker table I thought Jimmy White had been up to his old tricks
If this doesn’t convince our politicians to seek out policies that ween us off our oil dependency, nothing will.
Looks like Just Stop Oil didn’t account for Henry the Hoover
Love the bloke shouting “FUCKING PRICK” the moment he jumps onto the table.
I want them to try this at the darts next, they won’t leave the building alive
I’m convinced they’re paid actors. They can’t be this bad at this on purpose.
Of all the sports to pick. Sad that everyone’s evening has been ruined.
These protests are rubbish. Completely counter productive and self gratifying. It’s not helping.
Largest pile of dust on a snooker table since Jimmy White’s heyday
I’m getting so sick of these sanctimonious cretins
Dammit I had something for this. Something about being blackballed.
No it’s gone
Now if they really want to cause a commotion, there should be a third and fourth person sat waiting in the audience.
Just seems a bit of a waste to be doing this to events that aren’t front and centre sponsored by Shell, BP, etc. Do they gate crash their parties and it just doesn’t make the news? Or do they not want to do that because they’d rather annoy the public?
What were they protesting? Snooker balls getting killed at the end of a match?
Ah yes, fucking over the paying public rather than the lawmakers who actually have the power to affect policy. That should get people onside.
I’m going to throw some puppies into the blades of a wind farm turbine. Simultaneously protesting against animal cruelty and fossil fuels.
That’ll get people talking.
I heard that when the police came the bloke ducked under the table and is now under a rest.
They’re just being cunts now. Why not go to the factories, stop the trucks leaving and that?
This is a fantastic way of alienating your cause. These stunts are only successful in making people less inclined to take scientific studies about climate change seriously.
This is doing much more damage to combating climate change, I’m all for spreading awareness, but this is just the wrong way to do it.
I’m for the cause but stop targeting events like these, they achieve nothing. Go after politicians and their donors.
Does snooker have a strong correlation with oil? Is the black ball just a solid sphere of oil? Sorry I’m just trying to understand the motivation.
Worst act of vandalism the sport has seen since I tried to play pool after drinking four pints on Saturday night.
These ‘Gender reveals’ are getting out of hand now.
Very bizarre target. Can’t think of anything as inoffensive as snooker.
Why’d they jump in with massive bags of watsits? What’s this accomplishing other than making them look like prats? (Kind of) serious question
Remember this is the same group that protested and occupied a sunflower oil factory.
​
Also does anyone else think an orange baized snooker table would look pretty nifty?
I hate this anti-oil group more than I hate oil. They are an anti-advert.
Sorry I read the article and I still don’t understand why protesters are disrupting a snooker game, what has the snooker industry done to warrant climate responses

Trying to draw attention to all the snooker players that are bred specifically for the sport and die as a result
Look what they did to the table. ☹️ https://i.imgur.com/A5i5J95.png
