Caporegime
Poor old Willies gone to the big snooker club in the sky aged 66 following respiratory failure.
bit of a Leicester legend was Willie, and was a throughly nice fella. Very good snooker player, but one of those serial losers that everyone loves, like Jimmy White. Shame the gambling got to him but he got past that. I believe he was a star in the music video of the classic 80’s number, Snooker Loopy.
Will miss him in the commentary box, much better than Taylor and Virgo at it.
was suffering from leukaemia and died in Spain following respiratory failure.
