Is it time to ban The Hurricane for life?

Question

Alex Higgins has too often attacked officials and referees. It is mostly verbal but other times it is physical as was his latest attack on a referee. These prima donnas need to be held in check but snooker administrators in the past have acted as lily livered cowards and turned a blind eye towards players like Higgins. Maybe another scandal is what snooker needs but make it involve someone rather than an old hasbeen nearing pension age. If players like Jimmy White keep inviting bad news to exhibition matches then put a heavy penalty on him. why should Ronnie be taken to task. Is he a soft touch who would take it whereas Higgy would have a tank full and a snort and get stuck in with his full six stones. Better still why not bring him into the Rules committee and join the other Dinosaurs who need a jolt into reality. Steve Davis and Willie Thorne are two exceptional snooker gentlemen who might have a remedy for wayward past masters. Why not ask them.

Answer 5

No, he's one of the greatest characters of all time. Look at the boring twunts in todays game, no personality with a charisma bypass. He never attacked the official in the way the papers made out, he only tapped the ref on his belly, the papers are obviously going to jazz the story up.

You are extremely rude about a dying man.
