Snooker

[Oxo]

Did Jocky Wilson play top level snooker, too?

In his case it was top up level.

I don't think so, but Bill Werbeniuk did

Blimey! I stand corrected. I thought the first one was Jocky in better clothes.

Bill Werbenuik was great, fifty pints of lager a day and the first snooker player to split his trousers on live TV -admirable stuff!

Dull-fest.

They should introduce large amounts of alcohol, 5 pints before each match and then one pint a frame or the first 5 frames, and see how it goes after that. When one player was at the table the opponent would be permitted to spill their pint but only if once a frame; it would all then kick off. Likewise the opponent would be permitted to "look at their burd" but if they were caught doing this they would forfeit the frame. Incorrect claims of "are you looking at ma burd?!" would result in a free punch being offered.

Ah, the Higgins method,
