I was desperately dissapointed to hear those without sin casting their stones at Alex Higgins on the day of his funeral. What is it with our people? As soon as one of our famous sons/daughters of Northern Ireland dies they queue up to get on the radio and continually look at the negative side of the persons life. As Alex made his last horsedrawn journey toward his own funeral service, Radio Ulster was fielding calls from naysayers that can't see the genius Alex Higgins for what he was to the sport of snooker. Quick to highlight Alex's troubles with the demon drink, gambling and the odd punch up, these aresholes couldn't acknowledge what a lad from the back streets of Belfast had done to bring snooker to the forefront of public viewing. To hell with the lot of you, you did exactly the same thing to Geordie Best and your all a bloody disgrace.
