Loved this with John, held in high esteem here in Ireland and loved by all Celtic fans. So down to earth and passionate about Our Great Club and his snooker. HH 💚🍀🇮🇪☘✊
Fantastic show once again! John is not only a great snooker player but a great guy as well. Like John, I'll never forgive Brendan on walking away from us. He's back now, and we move on? At the end of the day, a top-class manager
He wouldn’t be at Celtic if he was genuinely top class - he would be in the EPL or at some European club. Not a sniff from anybody! He crawled his way back to us because there was no other offers on the table that would give him as much as a free ride as he gets in Glasgow. Guaranteed success in a one horse race!
When we were at primary school, johns mum used to drop him off at my house to play on my 6x3 table. My dad used to take us to the big apple in wishy to play in the big tables too 💚
Great episode again, unfortunately the memory of Partisan is still rattling around in my head, still makes me cringe. Love the Cosmos top too, seen them play a good half dozen times between 2014 and 2017, its a sad story, almost 4 yrs since the doors were closed, saw Raul play for them. Never count them out, I always admired them for wanting to stay in independent soccer leagues, they will be back. Higgins is a peoples champion, and such a great personality. If I had to pick someone to be on the show I'd like to see Kevin Bridges, and Tierney why not?
John Higgins. Circa 2001?Cottage Bar, Calton. Before big game, made time for all the folk who approached him. Chatted away. Glad it didn’t have a pool table. Poor guy would still be there holding the table. 😂
Another great interview, I met John in Dublin when we were over for Mick McCarthy's Testimonial bk in 96 I think it was ,John was with the Wishaw Bhoys and I was with my Supporters Club ,Hill 16 pub I'm sure it was in 🍀
What a pro, at the top of his game for so long. Pot black & the world's back in our childhood was dominated by Irish, Welsh, English & Canadians. Eddie Sinclair if memory serves was the top Scot, rarely seen on tv. When Hendry & then John, two of the best ever to play the game came along it was an amazing time to be a fan of the game. Excellent show 🍀HH🍀
Talking about players being fast and some deceptive I saw an interview with Martinelli of Arsenal recently. The interviewer said to him you must be the fastest player at the club, who’s the second. He said that he wasn’t the fastest, Tierney was. Bring him home
Tremendous interview with all 3 off you 👏🏻👏🏻 Turning 50 next year first started going with my dad 82 so I like to look at the 90s as character building to njoy the meltdown off Cinderella F.C. fans even more 🤣🍀🍀
The Masters Snooker Hall in Craigpark, Dennistoun, just round the corner from Alexandra Parade was the home base for many years for Alan McManus…before that it was a swimming pool, Dennistoun Private Baths….what an amazing and fascinating story ….well done John Higgins….the Wishaw Wizard…..
I played John in a good few handicap comps in his 16-20 Yr old days...even then his,and Alan Mcmanus' sportsmanship and honesty were a cut above most of the top players in that scene. All great players in their own right,but the 'no excuses' attitude was,i believe,a huge factor in his future success. Brilliant days for Scottish snooker with a strong pro-am scene.
here a wee pos prediction fur yis... "IF" KT returns it wullnae as a L/B itl be a a left sided C/B who can carry the ball forward. like hes done for the national team.... ?????????????????
You may as well just rebrand this the ‘Tommy the Commie Show’ and have Sheridan standing in front of a massive mirror reciting some egocentric affirmations for an hour. This would have been another great interview if it wasn’t ruined once again by Tommy’s desire to make it all about himself. He’s not even remotely aware of what he’s doing, neither are the ACSOM team.
I agree. 30:35 Scotland is a tiny wee nation and we do not produce very many world champions and here we have a 4 time world champion and you are free to ask him anything but all we're getting is Tommy's opinion on what Igamane should've done with that 4 v1 situation in the LC final..... Why not ask John Higgins (you know, the ONE world class sportsman in the room) about decision making under pressure in snooker as it compares to football. But nah... We'll just have another few minutes of Tommy bloviating about the cup final instead
@@jamescarr5796 Suspect? 😂 Does it give you great solace to hark back to the 14th century origins of my surname? That's what we are up against here! 🤣🤣🤣
@@Mantis_Toboggan_MD. His massive Ego obviously felt incredibly threatened sitting next to a real life mercurial Wizard and a four-time World Champ, thus he had to counter it by going full main character syndrome - as he does practically every week!
This show is great but would be so much better if Tommy wasn't on it. Offers nothing apart from making it all about himself and what is it with that fake over the top laugh every two minutes. PJ, surely with your ACSOM contact list you can get another co-presenter that actually asks the guests good questions and not just use the show to blow up his ego.
One of the greatest snooker players of all time can hardly get a word in edge ways because of Tommy...let John talk!! Why is Tommy always on this show? PJD asks John a question, John has about 90 seconds to answer before Tommy jumps in again..i'm cringing watching him constantly butting in.
john carried my dads coffin , my dad was a snooker referee back home in belfast and they knew each other from the sport
Loved this with John, held in high esteem here in Ireland and loved by all Celtic fans. So down to earth and passionate about Our Great Club and his snooker. HH 💚🍀🇮🇪☘✊
What a lovely, modest and decent soul John is.👏 11:36 No wonder we in Ireland 🇮🇪 love and respect him so much. Come on ya boy ye !
🏴💚🇵🇸☘️🇮🇪
John an absolute snooker legend and great celtic man good to see him on the show Hail Hail 💚🍀
Would've been even nicer to hear him speak
@@Mantis_Toboggan_MD.exactly man. The other guy loves the sound of his own voice
Great interview gents, keep them coming. This is what it's all about. Hail hail
Fantastic episode and fantastic guest! Thoroughly enjoyed this one, bhoys! 🍀👍
Another first class guest 👌🍀
Just watched this with a brutal hang over but Higgy cured it😜 what a decent and humble guy👍
A proper gent on a great show

My favourite this is acsom yet, John is a legend and I heard many a story from my late mum of John joining the celebrations after games.. true legend
Absolute LEGEND
Absolutely Brilliant,John was Class. Magic.🍀💚

Great show lads 😊
John was a year below me at school and we all knew then he was going to become a world champion year.

Great Lad John, meet him at polkemmet many years ago playing golf, Was better at Snooker than golf. :)
Great pod Loved the interview John top man HH DUBLIN 🇮🇪🇵🇸

Paul McStay on here would be sheer class, Paul is and always will be my favourite Celtic player
I played John in a good few handicap comps in his 16-20 Yr old days...even then his,and Alan Mcmanus' sportsmanship and honesty were a cut above most of the top players in that scene.

Love snooker so obviously love Higgins...Great guest
Well said John if Clement hadn't came out with his phone messages patter this wouldn't have unravelled the way it did
My granny Keenan was at John's wedding too.
Really enjoyed that episode. Most relaxed ive seen you pj on these episodes. Just another fan eh. 5 times world champion ffs 💚
Top man John, loved this interview. Can I ask, where abouts is this interview taking place?
great show 💚 what did john say at the end about winning the ten and then said only kidding after it? i can’t make it out
aaH yes the kilt in newmains brilliant
My oldman worked way his dad on the rigs
Paul McStay would be a great guest on ACSOM…..but how about Henrik Larsson???
"Aye, but naw"
Naw, but aye"
Aye, but naw"
The bears have been cheating for over 100 years and still cant beat the Hoops
Im not having this small team nonsense mentality! Man City & Barca for long enough were small teams & won plenty with style.
Was just about to say about Barcelona, . Messi , Iniesta , Xavi probably the best ever club team , and around 5 8”
Lucky not to get a longer ban
Is John related to Alex Hurricane Higgins
They aren’t related Frankie 👍🏻
Let John speak ffs
Walter Smith DOB
Quality interview again but hoping for some Ukrainian stories😂
Cmon spider have a word with your pals no littering have some respect for the guys and girls that need to go round and pick up all the litter. Slainte
i hope higgens pays his hmsc dues in time..dont be like a hun,,hail hail,,,
here a wee pos prediction fur yis... "IF" KT returns it wullnae as a L/B itl be a a left sided C/B who can carry the ball forward. like hes done for the national team.... ?????????????????

you have always been suspect…
i suspect it’s the ‘campbell’ in you…
I agree.

Perhaps if Celtic had won 10 in a row there would have been a lot of trouble in Scotland. We could possibly do it again if we really wanted it.
This the guy that took a bribe?
Why is he invited on the channel?
CLASS
I bet this gets deleted.
Not your show Tommy shut up
