RIP You Fucking Legend.

[tabarakrazvi]

its kinda cool that the length of this video is 1:47

[TheWestSux]

@tabarakrazvi good spot

[circesprophecy]

@tabarakrazvi how?!

[tabarakrazvi]

@circesprophecy it's because the maximum break in snooker is 147 points. For any snooker fan or player it's the magic number because it means a flawless performance.

[liamslocks]

@tabarakrazvi 1:48 on mine lol hmmm

[tforde654]

[converse91970]

I remember this match vividly and Higgins was pretty tetchy the whole match. I think Bob Chaperon went onto win his one and only ranking tournament....correct me if I am wrong anyone!

[QuasiConvexAnalysis]

@converse91970

alain chamberlain was a prick then and is still a prick now - he will not be missed.

[ave2timeslip]

I didn't follow snooker back then, so I do not have a clear picture, but he's certainly doesn't appear to be a nice chap.

[edwardfirth49]

The clown of the green baize again, chamberlain.

[mancity1000]

Great character and player, shame about the alcohol. If he didn't drink he probably wouldn't be paranoid

[micljnes]

Alex, you are truly one of the 3 legends to come from that era of snooker, with Davis and White being the other 2, and I feel the rest were just hanger oners, I truly believe White and Higgins brought the razzmatazz into snooker, as until then I would never have even bothered to watch it, just an old mans game. We all wish you well Alex, and your legacy is a lasting and inspired one, even with all of your antics.........

[neilandrewporter]

i wish they could issue yellow and red cards in snooker

[khalins]

@neilandrewporter shut up fanny bawz

[athull08]

The George Best of snooker.

[athull08]

They usually made sure John Williams or Len Ganley refereed Higgins' games.

[jonnyf147]

yea you are right.....john and len never took any shit from alex.

[14721mark]

I know m8 everybody else shat themselves when refereing Higgins, Williams didn't take any shit.

[athull08]

@14721mark I wonder what Michaela Tabb thought of him in the seniors!!

I'm sure she could handle him, and so would Jan Verhaas and Eirian Williams.

[14721mark]

@athull08 yeah m8 she said he was her hero, but when Higgins was playing in the seniors against Thornburn he was waving his cue about like maddy.

[eblanaken]

Total genius but total scatterhead too. Tried that with John Williams but Williams told him to get on with it! I used to hate the dramatic jump up from shots like his opening shot here or the way he would twitch up the cue for extra effect on stun or screw shots. Can't help to say he sure made it interesting back then.

[skaterford]

alex was indeed a great player, but constant booze and cocaine made him a twat lol

[robthesamplist]

i think he took alot of drugs but was a great great player of snooker

[Johnzoil]

Alex Higgins made modern snooker popular.

[bladesmark1]

@Johnzoil He was one hell of a mardy twat aswell although i agree with you on your post.

[CanYaDoDis]

wow lenth of the video is 147

[nitesec]

haha, he still missed the shot~~

cheeky bastard!! XDD

[tforde654]

@nitesec 148

[serratop]

he didnt like the referees at all

[NeutronZapper]

All that fuss and he missed anyway.

[Tomj2110]

Yeah Dennis is RIGHT about Alex.

Alex should just get on with the game and NOT argue.

[plasticbudgie]

I bet there ref was like HA!

[gapmanreturns]

Snooker is dying with out characters like Alex, he brought great drama with him, as for the tit who called him a loser, he was a genius , he revolutionised snooker . .

A master of the Baize!

[dudewithpool]

Revolution yes.... But being a tard at the same time when thinking he was gods gift to everyone = yes :)

[th4397]

Higgins an amazing player but could sometimes be the biggest twat on the earth.

[getfunky79]

this man is fukkin insane!!!!. The referee was doing his job great . I dont know why he told him to move. Looser!!!

[miserableoldcunt]

yeah higgins is a proper arsehole.

[xjustbmw]

[tompo010101]

[gary63693]

Alex Higgins is such a kn*b for doing this. This is where the refs are "supposed" to stand, understand now Alex? you t*t!

[Rasabihariji]
