    Default The woodbine challenge videos

    Hi - I have seen the Woodbine Challenge video which is available on several websites from the 1973 final. I was just wondering if anyone by any small chance has any of the other years like 1971, 1972, 1974, 1975 - as my dad was in a couple of the other finals and finished 3rd in one of them - I wanted to get hold of them and see him in his glory days!

    Playing pool in ireland with bobby , i once saw him hit the table with the flat of his hand and all the balls jumped up 4" off the bed . His hands were like shovels and when he got me in a head lock i thought my time had come . All good fun may i add
