Thanks for posting this, I take it this was aired this week on the BBC.

Taylor did not win major tournaments, his far more superior opponents lost them....

As a person Taylor > A. Higgins

As a snooker player Taylor < A. Higgins

@ilove8pool totally agree. Altho got to admit Higgins was some player drunk or sober!

To think you'd never believe That the lovable Dennis Taylor, behind the scenes is a beer swilling, wife beater. That threatened to cripple Alex if he beat him!!

@Visonu You actually lose points if 2 reds go in. You can't pot a colour.

At 6.02 Dennis Taylor was unlucky not to get an extra point for that other red that didn't go in

[Visonu]

THis was actually the second massive shock caused by Deniis Taylor in the History of snooker

Ted Lowe is the best commentator. He has golden quotes.
