Great episode again, unfortunately the memory of Partisan is still rattling around in my head, still makes me cringe. Love the Cosmos top too, seen them play a good half dozen times between 2014 and 2017, its a sad story, almost 4 yrs since the doors were closed, saw Raul play for them. Never count them out, I always admired them for wanting to stay in independent soccer leagues, they will be back. Higgins is a peoples champion, and such a great personality. If I had to pick someone to be on the show I'd like to see Kevin Bridges, and Tierney why not?

Fantastic show once again! John is not only a great snooker player but a great guy as well. Like John, I'll never forgive Brendan on walking away from us. He's back now, and we move on? At the end of the day, a top-class manager

@leannecampbell4551 Ай бұрын

He wouldn’t be at Celtic if he was genuinely top class - he would be in the EPL or at some European club. Not a sniff from anybody! He crawled his way back to us because there was no other offers on the table that would give him as much as a free ride as he gets in Glasgow. Guaranteed success in a one horse race!

John Higgins. Circa 2001?Cottage Bar, Calton. Before big game, made time for all the folk who approached him. Chatted away. Glad it didn’t have a pool table. Poor guy would still be there holding the table. 😂

What a pro, at the top of his game for so long. Pot black & the world's back in our childhood was dominated by Irish, Welsh, English & Canadians. Eddie Sinclair if memory serves was the top Scot, rarely seen on tv. When Hendry & then John, two of the best ever to play the game came along it was an amazing time to be a fan of the game. Excellent show 🍀HH🍀

Talking about players being fast and some deceptive I saw an interview with Martinelli of Arsenal recently. The interviewer said to him you must be the fastest player at the club, who’s the second. He said that he wasn’t the fastest, Tierney was. Bring him home

@Michael-yl4or Ай бұрын

I played John in a good few handicap comps in his 16-20 Yr old days...even then his,and Alan Mcmanus' sportsmanship and honesty were a cut above most of the top players in that scene. All great players in their own right,but the 'no excuses' attitude was,i believe,a huge factor in his future success. Brilliant days for Scottish snooker with a strong pro-am scene.

This show is great but would be so much better if Tommy wasn't on it. Offers nothing apart from making it all about himself and what is it with that fake over the top laugh every two minutes. PJ, surely with your ACSOM contact list you can get another co-presenter that actually asks the guests good questions and not just use the show to blow up his ego.

@leannecampbell4551 Ай бұрын

You may as well just rebrand this the ‘Tommy the Commie Show’ and have Sheridan standing in front of a massive mirror reciting some egocentric affirmations for an hour. This would have been another great interview if it wasn’t ruined once again by Tommy’s desire to make it all about himself. He’s not even remotely aware of what he’s doing, neither are the ACSOM team.

I agree. 30:35 Scotland is a tiny wee nation and we do not produce very many world champions and here we have a 4 time world champion and you are free to ask him anything but all we're getting is Tommy's opinion on what Igamane should've done with that 4 v1 situation in the LC final..... Why not ask John Higgins (you know, the ONE world class sportsman in the room) about decision making under pressure in snooker as it compares to football. But nah... We'll just have another few minutes of Tommy bloviating about the cup final instead

One of the greatest snooker players of all time can hardly get a word in edge ways because of Tommy...let John talk!! Why is Tommy always on this show? PJD asks John a question, John has about 90 seconds to answer before Tommy jumps in again..i'm cringing watching him constantly butting in.
