I really enjoyed seeing Allison Fisher play, she went on to play pool in the States, if my memory serves me right. I always watched Davis play with Tony Meo in other doubles tournaments, they were the most successful pairing, as I remember.
Omg this brings back memories i never saw this match i remember this super channel and the music when taking a commercial break from 91. When was this match
Indeed, it was the reason I put it up. Not sure to be honest that the standard of womens snooker has improved since then. Alison Fisher was decent but Stacy Hillyard was very poor in this match.
@@digeme69 Ahh good thinking then 👍. I guess it must be hard for the women to perform with their male counterparts at this game, probably adds more pressure. Didn't half have a crush on Alison back in the days ☺
@@alanchamberlain9902that's like saying Steve Davis is way better than Ronnie osullven at there best so your saying the standerd has gone down in 30 years you make no sense
@@MikeBarratt-lk3gt Fisher was miles ahead of other women back then, the women's game hasn't really improved bar maybe Mink she's good. Alison would do just fine, she got some very good results and made a century on TV, what other woman has done that?
Love your uploads, ST. Do you happen to have Drago vs Higgins from the 1988 World's in your collection, and be able to upload, or would that fall foul of copyright? I can't find it anywhere and I've even trawled the Chinese video sharing sites to no avail. Thanks for reading.
I know of a few collectors and none of them have that match. Even people that have footage they don't want uploaded to youtube don't have it, so unless someone somewhere has it on and old VHS stuck in the attic, it's very unlikely that this match will appear.
@@digeme69 No wonder I couldn't find it! I assumed it was due to copyright reasons and it would soon be deleted upon upload. Trust me to be interested in an impossible to find match.
Thanks! I was wondering if it could be a young Phil Yates! He had yet to develop his signature commentary style at this point… in fact in recent years he seems to have reigned it a bit again (thankfully).
@@alanchamberlain9902you think she had some good results agisnt the top male players in her era but reanne is playing against better players now you can't compere eras but the standard has gone way up from the 80s and early 90s
Vintage gentle women & gentleman snooker players, beautiful to watch, I would call call Fisher “princess of snooker”

Thanks a lot for this. Love Davis and Fisher. Any more stuff with Fisher will be much appreciated.
Allison, was beautiful.
Still is
Snookerplayers were real stars in that era
What an amazing game, played by such amazing ambassadors.
Allison Fisher - total babe !
Hilliard not too shabby either
The current mixed doubles shown on ITV4 was played in an atmosphere similar to a graveyard and the quality wasn't better than this.
Omg this brings back memories i never saw this match i remember this super channel and the music when taking a commercial break from 91. When was this match
Allison and Stacey look like rock singers.
You'd love to sink the pink though 😉
Allison looks like a cross between David Sylvian and Nik Rhodes (back in the day obviously😆)
You could see Stacey being in The Bangles the way her hair is done.
cool hairstyles
Yeah shes definitely a great player, Alison Fisher 11 world titles.
This information is worthy of an AI video high-definition restoration
I totally agree, unfortunately I'm not going to pay for sites such as Vegas Pro etc to do this, plus it's very time consuming
Allie is so cute!
Agreed I forgot how much she reminded me of
princess Di back then!
@@feat132 She reminds me of the character Watts from the movie "Some Kind of Wonderful". :)
*Good timing of the upload actually. Mixed doubles is on this Saturday*

@@Mike-1000Allison was indeed gorgeous and very feminine unlike today's.
The new mixed doubles is painful to watch!
@@elmondo3543 Yeah it is unfortunately. I'm struggling to watch it !!!
Allison still made more centuries on tv than most of the women playing now
Far better player than Reanne Evans
@@alanchamberlain9902 yes 1 century on the main tour I think it is, on yee made one on the 900 which is an amateur event but was still live on tv

Alison was the best ahead of her time. She would complete with the females of today
Reanne Evans just lost 10-0 to some nobody so yeah Alison would do well.
Who's Hillyard? Not surprising that she did not compete at the highest level.
I looked her up, think she was around a few years and became a police officer.
Believe Allison was 17 years old here in 1991
22/23
Не ври. Она в 68м родилась!
@@digeme69 23
1:42 shed have been better off playing safe and letting Hendry maybe have the chance
I had screensport and eurosport on sky
There was sky and the smaller dish bsb
Around this time Hendry was World number 1 Steve Davis 2 and Jimmy White 3
Can anyone name the commentators?
It's in the description

Красивая девушка
Ugliest pocket leathers in history. Cams in pockets now are the sizes of the thymbal 😂
Agree...pocket cams..never understood the appeal of them back then either...added nowt😂
May as well have been davis v hendry
I wonder if Alison of that time was better than Reanne Evans now.
Even now she still fights in pool at the highest level. She is really very talented.
Think you mean Reanne Evens,Ryan is a man's name like Ryan Day
I think she was better than Reanne she had some very good results vs the men and she made a century on TV
@@alanchamberlain9902you think she had some good results agisnt the top male players in her era but reanne is playing against better players now you can't compere eras but the standard has gone way up from the 80s and early 90s
@@MikeBarratt-lk3gt Yes and Reanne can't win a game, she can't score.
@@alanchamberlain9902 she has beat some top male players and to say she can't score is just dumb
the nuget
utter crap. ruining sport
So you won't be watching the World Snooker Championships this year?
