Seriously, 1990 world championship was the first one I watched and became hooked. Had a lot of matches saved on VHS but long since lost. This whole batch of 1990 uploads has been fantastic for me to reminisce.
Haven't posted in a while, just wanted to say thank you for another gem from back in the day. Appreciate the effort it takes in converting and uploading MJT !
Amazing, I think pretty much the entire tournament is now up here from yourself-other than the other two quarters & some of the first round matches. Although I had been watching since the late 1970's as a young child, this one resonated & is my favourite WC-thanks to Hendry winning it for the first time, the high standard of play/close matches in the first round, second round & semis & that due to it being moved earlier it coincided perfectly with the school holidays & so I was able to watch the whole thing.
yep, as for the other 2 quarters... I have the first session of White v Griffiths, and the first session of Thorburn v Parrott, plus a few frames of the second session. If you're interested I guess I could post them, but both matches were a long way from being completed ...

@@mjt_snooker1704 If you get chance I would be interested in seeing some of that Griffiths vs White Q/F, as I'm big Griffiths fan as you know! Looking at the scores frame 5 looks like a pivotal one in that match. Thanks!
Was thinking the same thing, as JP was in total control at this point as he was at the table leading 5-2 in frames and 51-31 in points. For me he then played the wrong shot at 29:12 ... he should have stunned the cue ball up between pink and brown and got Hendry snookered on the yellow. Thus finishes the session 6-2 up and on his way! Instead he allowed Hendry to luckily get the snooker you mentioned, manages to get away with it by escaping the session only 3-5 down (and he mock wipes his brow as he leaves the arena as he knows he got away with murder there!). Turning point in the whole match.
Yeah he could easily have put the white behind the black as well if he wanted instead of the nothing shit he played. I'm not sure if he tried to hide white behind the blue
The referee did his best to see what would happen by invoking the foul and a miss rule twice on Hendry and then blatantly giving JP a pass for exactly the same shot. John Virgo would say: " An independent observer would say "It ain't fair if JP wins."
Parrott, it's hard to believe that he couldn't win another frame in the mstch after going 11-9 up. Not many thought when the semi final started that Parrott would win as many as 11 frames the entire mstch. But when it went 11-9, many thought Parrott would take it to the wire or very close to the wire.
@@deconteesawyer5758d The WPBSA did not do anything to dillute Hendry's domination if that's what you are trying to get at. The miss rule was introduced to ensure that players no longer deliberately foul to effectively gain table advantage from it, Alex Higgins to name just one who regularly benefitted, not to try to stop Hendry. The original foul rule was totally inadequate for many yesrs before this.
Parrott was certainly at the table for more than his own break off shot and the shot after Hendry's own break off shot in a few of the last 7 frames he lost. Parrott lost one frame 68-55, at the time that was the sort of frame you had to win vs Hendry during a spell of Hendry winning a few frames on the trot if you were still to stand a chance of beating Hendry going down the stretch at the Crucible, but Parrott fell short of what was required. Parrott couid also have won at leset another in that final session but fluffed his lines. Parrott scored nearly 200 in those last 7 frames so he was not exactly almost completely frozen out in the final session. Hendry did not score century break after century break after century break va Parrott in the 1990 worlds.

Same here. I used to record half the world championship in April so I could watch it in the summer when there was NO snooker on TV.
@@rfurdaylee me too. Had even get the opening theme, then David Vine's cheery welcome. Happy days
hendry had a killer instinct like no other see how he saved going six two down
John Parrot was a decent player, he would have been successful today, had great cue action and was well able to play with Davis and Hendry.
Thanks for this upload ⭐️
What a brilliant watch👏Where do I find the other semi final please

Hendry was brilliant and being Scottish I was always rooting for him.

Two of my favourite players, topnotch human beings, great talents.
John Parrott was criminally underrated, on his day a bloody good player
One had a brilliant technique one had an exquisite touch. Parrot and Hendry combined would be unbeatable.
Not needed, Hendry was unbeatable, well almost.
Would have been great to see Davis v Hendry Final just to see what would have happened
That snooker on yellow in frame 8 was huge in the match

stephen was too good for any this year
2:40:00 very un-Hendry like shot. Silly boy!
David Vine was flawless. Just brilliant. He’s never been replaced by the BBC. The pundits today are awful.
Thanks mjt where do I find the other semi final and final pls? Are they already uploaded?
yes, if you search for White v Hendry 1990 and Davis v White 1990 you'll find them
@@mjt_snooker1704 👍🙌👏⭐️
think hendry was at best this year almost unbeatable
3.09:23 is where the 1990 world title is really won
JP lost his bottle here he had him a few times and made careless errors wonder how snooker history might have played out had jp won this match

Which shot are you referring to?
Parrott, it's hard to believe that he couldn't win another frame in the mstch after going 11-9 up.

2:40:30 two dire shots
JP always seemed a little careless, particularly when he was under the cosh
I don't get with people in a crowd why do they make noises for???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
