On this episode I'm joined by Paul Collier who is regarded as one of the finest referees to ever pull on the white gloves. Also a tournament director, he is instrumental in making sure the competitions are ran as safe as possible especially during these challenging times.

Paul has not only been in charge of each of the snooker Triple Crown Events and two World Championship Finals, he was also the youngest referee at only 33 years of age to officiate the World Final in 2004 - a record that lasted until the 2020 World Championships.

Join us as we discuss passing his refereeing exam at the age of 15, Covid-19 rules, and the refereeing mistake which resulted in a clip round the ear from Jimmy White.
