Tony Knowles footage

[spike]

Just watched his match against Reardon from the 1983 World Championship. Great pot on the black by Reardon to make it all square..

Cheers gmg

It's a wonder Alex ever potted owt, the amount of movement on some of his shots.....having seen him play a few times, i can confirm he potted a few.

as has been said a few times, when it came to the point of delivery, every thing was just right

For those of you who may be interested, I've added a couple of new uploads of Tony Knowles to my Youtube channel both from the Irish Masters in the 1980's. They can be found at the following links:

Footage is a bit ropey but hopefully still worth a watch.

Fast forward to today and here is Tony in action in the World Seniors :

Yip, not so good and Tony can't say he didn't have his chances either even though he could hardly have asked for a tougher draw.

Yeah, Davis is still a competent player.

They were good days

I have some VHS tape footage where Hendry (I think) made a tremendous 7 frame comeback. On two occasions Tony snatched defeat out of the jaws of victory and uttered the statement I remember to this day: 'anyone got a rope?'

Rumour has it he snapped the cue afterward.

OK lol. Forget all that. The game was Hendry vs Hallett 1991 Masters Final
