The one on Alex Higgins was excellent a few years ago, plus Inside Sport is a really good show.jamie brannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01668254365608375328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29605452.post-42261223769125469852010-02-26T13:12:06.589+00:002010-02-26T13:12:06.589+00:00Snooker © The Fine Art Method
A secret is wasted ...Snooker © The Fine Art Method <br />A secret is wasted if not shared <br />Hi Dave How’s tricks!<br />Thanks lad for the posts. You seem to have adopted some Independent Thinkers that are actually interested more in the “Purity” of the game as opposed snooker personalities. <br />The many world champions and the folks in Hazels Corner are all important to snooker and choosing favourites keeps the word “Snooker” in the news.<br /><br />Even the adverse comments Dave are good for the game, it is sad really that we never hear the familiar voices of “Snooker People” to comment and criticise with posts to create discussion.<br /><br />Snooker the “Fine Art” method is taking some stick and stealing all the thunder. It is tragic really Dave that there is not a “Jack Jones” or a “Katie Smith” method to share this wonderful attention.<br /><br />Thanks to all the Dave Den bloggers. The “Fine Art” snooker © method may have reached the ears of a “Snooker Business Person” with a few bob.<br /> <br />All business men dream of creating a multi million pound industry; while others only need to see the potential in a Concept.

I really hope they show the amazing brown, blue and pink that Taylor potted too because they are always overlooked.<br /><br />But I get the feeling half the running time is going to be just Z-list celebrities who don't even really like sports offering their opinions of Dennis Taylor's glasses. No doubt I will get attacked for that remark because snooker needs to "reach out" to the people who read Heat magazine, or something.Greg Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00346602906924608907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29605452.post-43525322115983623182010-02-25T16:08:55.126+00:002010-02-25T16:08:55.126+00:00Torvill & Dean, 1994 Winter OlympicsTorvill & Dean, 1994 Winter OlympicsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29605452.post-78727896486031104012010-02-25T15:42:38.732+00:002010-02-25T15:42:38.732+00:00I have heard there will be a BBC documentary on th...I have heard there will be a BBC documentary on this, which is a little surprising considering they did one for the 20th.
