Scully Posted December 2 Report Share Posted December 2 Must admit I was surprised to find he was only 77. I grew up watching him in the tv; one of the greats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldypigeonpopper Posted December 2 Report Share Posted December 2 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marsh man Posted December 2 Report Share Posted December 2 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 .
