You know you are replying to 5-year old posts, right?

Also one of them are banned and the other is (likely) dead. So absolutely no point in responding to those posts

So you replied to a 5 & 7 year-old post requesting a link regarding gossip about a snooker player that’s been dead for 3 years, from two accounts that have been dormant for quite a while, and expect what exactly? A swift response?

Anyway welcome back after such an absence.

Sadly though the dates may be known the part about  the likelihood of an answer is indeed remote. Deathers gets the odd sock on for a few days now and then until it inevitably also gets banned, but Cat is gone :(.

Oh I can live with no reply. Just wanted to know if there was a snooker forum I wasn't aware of.

It's not a very big deal.

Jimmy White might be worth keeping an eye on. Looks noticeably thinner these days.

Watching Masters Snooker on a lazy Sunday and saddened to see the obvious deterioration in John Virgo’s health.

There's a lot of specualtion about what the heck is going on with his crooked neck. Hope he's not too bad.

It would make sense but I doubt it because the timeline's don't fit.

Virgo didn't have a visible neck problem 25 years ago.

.......and even as I write that I realise I could be totally wrong. It could take ages for such an injury to become visible.

So yeah, maybe.   #gethimonthelist

Watching the snooker on C5 at the mo.

 

Jimmy White as they say up here is thrawn indeed. Anyhow, he's still up and about and potting balls.

I was scrolling through Twitter earlier and there was a lot of stuff about how Alex Higgins would've been 75 today.

Interestingly, the comments were about 60% "He was a genius" and 40% "I've met him and I hated him."
