Snooker again

Just one last thing before I have a nice lemsip. I'm sick of fucking Dennis Taylor banging on and on about beating Steve Davis 23 years ago. Will Steve please put us all out of our misery and confess to Dennis that while 8-0 up he backed Dennis Taylor at odds of 1000/1 to win.

He tried so hard to let Dennis coast to victory once he had established the 8-0 lead, but Steve hadn't factored into his equations just how shit the blind spud faced chancer was. In the end at 17-17 Steve had to blouse an easy final black to give victory to Taylor.

They may not have had Betfair in those days, but it truly is remarkable that no one has even considered that wily old Stevo the Davo, who was bored of winning every year and pocketing a measly £100,000, had lumped on Dennis after building a seemingly insurmountable lead.














Taylor thinking he's great in 1985. Bless him.
