Any Snooker fans around these parts? - TLB - 02-16-2006

Back in 02/03, I recall posting something snooker related but there was very little interest, if any at all. I'm posting now to offer up copies of my collection to any hardcore fans out there.

Since November, I've been archiving a friend's VHS master collection of classic snooker matches onto DVD. I've compiled about 20 discs of footage from the late 1980's. As well, I've burned highlights from last month's Masters tournament (the last time ever at Wembley) and the UK Championships from six weeks ago. I've also made two compilation discs of 147 maximum breaks.

If you're interested, PM.

I used to play golf with this guy back home in Sudbury...apparently he was quite the Snooker player on the European scene back in the early 90's. I had actually seen him on TSN once or twice too...his name was Bob Chapperone...ring any bells??

actually yeah RG, he's well-known in Canadian snooker history. I actually have a match of his on DVD from the 1990 World Cup vs. Ireland & Australia.
