Snooker's Biggest Quiz

[Ginger Freak]

I don't suppose a) was Tom A Dennis?

[Cyril]

Intresting, I was about to say Willie Smith myself! Unless that was a)?

Not Willie, I'm afraid.

A clue for player a) His professional career was of a later era to that of Sidney Smith, Con Stanbury and, player d.

[Ginger Freak]

It doesn't look too much like him but I will say Gary Owen anyway whilst I try and think of someone else

[Cyril]

Not T.A.Dennis or G.Owen MBE.

I have pics of probably 80% of the players who competed in the championships (excluding qualifying rounds for more recent years, obviously, as there are hundreds of them!).

[Ginger Freak]

Well that is me out of options unless I start cheating!

[Ginger Freak]

Only one left I can think of would be Jackie Rea

[Cyril]

Not Jackie.

[Ginger Freak]

Freddie van Rensburg?

[Cyril]

No, I don't have a clue what he looked like?

[Ginger Freak]

No, I don't have a clue what he looked like?

A bit like Jimmy van Rensburg perchance??

[Ginger Freak]

Warren Simpson?

[Cyril]

Never seen a pic of him either. I dont think they were any relation.

[PaulTheSoave]

Jimmy White before the wig!

[Cyril]

Warren Simpson?

YESSSSS! Player a) is indeed Warren Simpson, the jovial Aussie who lost to Spencer in the 1971 (Nov 70) World final.

That leaves player d), who should be the easiest, if you refer to earlier posts.

[Ginger Freak]

D) has already been answered by Lindea? - Peter Mans
