Alex Higgins dies.....

[ber]

Its truly a credit to the medical profession to keep him alive for so long .
He must be wasting away for 10 years or more

A living nightmare I would say.

Like his fellow Belfast man George Best he was another person who rose to the top of his sport and wasted all the trappings of wealth on the high life.
So so sad.

Alex RIP

It's only wasted if you didn't enjoy it while you had it.
George was quoted once as saying: "I spent 90% of my money on women, drink and fast cars. The rest I wasted,"

Alex Higgins was a legend.
