You can't roll back time can you?
Found this picture on the net of Alex 'Hurricane' Higgins, who has been suffering from throat cancer and looks...well...looks like he does here I suppose.
Alex (and to a great extent Jimmy White) did more than every other snooker star put together to put snooker on the map. The game owes everything to those two.
Oh for the days of Alex punching a doorman, pissing in a plant pot, going out and whipping someone 14 frames to three at the Crucible, and finishing with a 12 hour drinking binge in some of northern England's less salubrious drinking establishments. Sadly, we'll never see the likes of it again.
He looks seriously ill doesn't he?

This one's bright and breezy so far phil.
Will you be covering any topics apart from poor customer service and terminal illness? ;-) |
