John Higgins

No and no, he's not quite as a big an house hold name as some of the big guns, but a very good player and fairly well known and you will of heard of him if you follow snooker regular.

Considering I was stood behind him in sainsburys the other night I'll go for Dave Harold??

He is an house hold name (in stoke at least) but not right mate.

Hmm. Good at snooker. Got a century break. That really narrows it down.

Well, I used to see Alan McManus quite often in a pub called the Griffin, which is quite similar to a Phoenix (in that they don't exist) so I'll go for him.

Makes a change for one of my Q's to last more than a few guesses

Alan McManus was actually the opponent when the century happened (not that it helps any) after a few more bashes i'll give you his country.

Peter Ebdon?
He must have started around then.

Scott · Post by **Scott** » Tue Apr 28, 2009 10:29 pm

No. The player in question is Irish.

Cardinal Sin · Post by **Cardinal Sin** » Tue Apr 28, 2009 10:29 pm

Please don't tell us his country is the UK!

I'll go for Joe Swail

Scott · Post by **Scott** » Tue Apr 28, 2009 10:30 pm

Not Joe.

Feargel O'Brien (excuse the spelling) ?

Scott · Post by **Scott** » Tue Apr 28, 2009 11:29 pm

Correct, the baby faced assassin Fergal O'brien.

All yours pal

Smashing. Thanks

But I'm off to my Teri Hatcher... if anyone has a question, fire in.

I'll chip in with one.
Having just been watching Selby v Higgins a snooker related question just popped into my head!

I was watching eurosport a few months back and they had billiards on. The commentators were talking about French and English billiards.

What is the main difference between the two? (sorry if this is easy but I didn't know there were two different games!)

does french billiards have pockets?
