1973 World Championship press conference with Alex Higgins & John Spencer

[spike]

Here's a chance to see John Spencer and Alex Higgins interviewed before the start of the 1973 World Championship, with Alex as defending champion.

Alex is as entertaining as ever when interviewed, & does not disappoint here. It's also interesting to hear John Spencer's thoughts on Snooker at that time, and on the young and brash Alex Higgins..


Enjoy..

I liked "they're not getting any better and I'm not getting any worse". Never won it again for 10 years.

But when he eventually did he made snooker rich with the equivalent of Gazza in 1990..........
