Havard Posted July 24, 2010 Share Posted July 24, 2010 Gone but never forgotten..!! It's a shame to see a world class sportsman's life deteriorate publically.... This man had it all and in the end died a lonely man. I imagine this is how Gazza will end up. RIP Alex. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soop Dogg Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 My Dad was telling me about one Sunday night a year or two back, he was walking out of church in Belfast when a little old man, stinking of drink and barely able to stand walked up to him and asked him for some change. It was Alex Higgins. A really sad end to a talent I've yet to see matched. RIP Alex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
