Referred to AzBilliards via a Dude on Billiards Hangout thread but I had no computer skills on the keyboard etc but John Higgins won the Scottish Open just before the 2011 Worlds and I went from reading posts to how does this computer keyboard work ? I have information to share .

Here we are , all these years later , quarantined due to the Corona Virus thinking what are we going to do now ?

That's the reason for this thread , a repayment for getting my interest back into the wonderful world of Billiards in the dark days .

H:rolleyes::wink::grin-square::cool:ope your enjoying it so far !

The Corona Virus will last longer than a battle of the grinders .

Eddie Charlton v Cliff Thorburn 1989 World Championship Round

"50 minutes so far, the second longest frame of the match"

They were trying to set a new best, evidently.

Couple in the audience, trying to stay awake, on camera, "Time to go home? No, not quite."

The cloth was slow so everything matched, thinking, shooting, scoring.

Clive did his best to highlight all possible points of interest.

Sixty one minutes for the frame. The decider started at 2AM.

The ref looks familiar.

What a pair of grinders Eddie Charlton and Cliff Thorburn were and by the time they completed a match there was no Corona Virus Pandemic .

Too soon ?

We shall continue until the bitter end then ! :rolleyes::smile::thumbup:

One time when I was refereeing and standing close to the player I got punched in the nose, so considering Alex, that ref got off easy.:)

:eek::eek::eek:
You don’t have to tell me who it was.....but I hope he was disqualified.

One of my best friends was barred from soccer for life....knocked a ref out cold.

Hi Bob !

I never saw him in action that I know of. He has been referred to as the Dean of the referees and wrote a referee training book. Any vids of him? Any idea what bothered Alex?

I think what happened there was Alex and John had a mutual hatred of each other so once you seen Alex on TV and John was the Ref it was odds on Alex would crack up and lose his match or at least that was the way I seen it ! :wink::D:thumbup:
