Snooker Legend Spencer Dies

Snooker legend John Spencer has died at the age of 70 after a long battle against stomach cancer.
The three-time world champion was a key figure behind the sport's big rise in popularity in the 1960s and 1970s.

The Englishman, who won the world title in 1969, 1971 and 1979, was also the first winner of the prestigious Benson & Hedges Masters in 1975.

Sad news, i can remember when i was a kid watching John Spencer on Pot Black. He was my favourite player at the time, he always seemed happy and played with a smile on his face, against the likes of Ray Reardon, Perry Mans, Jim Meadowcroft etc
