Terry Griffiths has died

[Gordon R]

Snooker legend and genuinely decent person has died at the age of 1977. A class act, who will be missed.

[Aled]

Another childhood hero has sadly passed away. RIP

[Mice!]

I thought he was older than 77, another most will have grown up watching.

[Dougy]

1977, he's had a good innings. 

Yes he was one of the top stars in the day. I spend allot of time on YT watching the old games. 

[Scully]

Must admit I was surprised to find he was only 77. 
I grew up watching him in the tv; one of the greats. 

[London Best]

Never heard of him.

[Bigbob]

R.I.P another great gone 

[JKD]

Always dreaded a match between him and Cliff Thorburn 🥱😴🙃

Anyway, gone at not a great age,,,, RIP.

What a pleasant bloke.

Hello, I think most of us of a certain age knew the Snooker greats, RIP Terry, As a side note i use to know Alex Higgins when all of Reeves stable lads came to the local Pub , and to play Snooker

I remember him well when I was hooked on snooker and unlike the thoughts of other members he didn't come across with me as one of the friendliest players with engaging with the public , at times he was deadly slow and now I would find it boring , apart from that he was very good at snooker and a good player in the era he was in .    MM

Ah I just remembered , Alex played Bar Billiards in the Pub for Beer and there was a Snooker Table in the Stables Games Room,

I didn't think Alex Higgins drank alcohol  , he was the publics all time great , he entertained us in more ways than one like no other player , certainly was one of a kind
