What does Kyren know about snooker in the 90s? Nothing.
He wouldn't have coped with the tables in those days anyway.

That is simply your opinion, there's no way to prove it.
And the tables in the 90's were not that much different.
I agree that the tables from the 70's and 80's were way slower, but not the ones from the 90's.

Not an easy decision, but you know me, I'm all about looking at things objectively.

Stupid list, stupid criteria. Nobody thinks Reardon and Davis were better than Higgins and Ronnie

Feel free to mark my words. A secret is always wasted if not shared. It is close to impossible to name a 10 top players of all time. But surely John Higgins is right up there. And that´s because of his playing style. One can´t participate to it all, and that´s no beneficial anymore, but one can always get in when giving a possibility. Pot the long one straight aways. Those are the attributes that makes John Higgins so great. So impossible to name a 10 players for sure but can name John Higgins to be up there.
Who else? Well, they do play it mixed all season long. Get a head check if can say surely that Ronnie would had or has enough depth to be up there. No matter how much perhaps likening his flashes of brilliance. The same can be said about Mark J Williams also. But there´s not enough depth.
There´s a "blow hole" out there which makes it interesting. There´s your ticket to ride. Not all the snakes can be that bad. It only bites you once, and there´s your ticket to ride. Or try to communicate with the gypsies. They almost took my life a year ago. Perhaps they saw how much agony there would be left while trying to follow the "game". I am not that much or any angry towards them but they have such a balls. There´s your second ticket to ride then. Possibly. But it takes some balls, works both way.
The Q School once again will be massive. Think if Reanne Evans would made it this time! Would made things interesting. Get a head check if making that much noise all the time without any evidence or a back-up. Or then make that noise little bit more so you won´t be bothering just a few persons.

Dan-Cat; The accuracy of this list is irrefutable! In fact it is as accurate as Hendry's shots were when he trounced a prime Mark Williams in the 99 World Final!

Willo was at his peak in 2003 when he won the treble.
And since in your narrow-minded view titles are everything, the order is:
1. Joe Davis with 15 WC
2. Fred Davis & John Pulman, both with 8 titles
3. Stephen Hendry with 7
4. Steve Davis and Ray Reardon with 6
5. Ronnie O'Sullivan with 5
6. John Higgins with 4
7. Mark Williams, John Spencer and Mark Selby with 3
8. Walter Donaldson and Alex Higgins with 2
and then a lot of players with 1 WC win
However, anyone with half an ounce of intelligence will tell u this list couldn't be further away from the truth.

Rubbish.
He played much better in the 1999 Worlds. He demolished a prime Ken Doherty, and a prime John Higgins en route to the final.
