Joe Johnson v Terry Griffiths 1986 World Championship QF 

Yeah. He was a bit like Willie Thorne. Tremendously talented, great break builder, but never really performed under T.V conditions, until that year of course. He was a 150/1 outsider as well. Tremendous fairy tale.

Very naturally gifted quick player. Must not be much fun to be on the receiving end of such a player.

To think that terry Griffiths missed that green because he played it too quickly! Also that was a rin through shot on and off the baulk cushion, wrong decision to try and screw it, white was always going too close to the middle pocket. Should have been a Davis Griffiths final for sure. Johnson did start to pot everything after that mistake tho. Joining the ranks of Taylor Dott Parrot and indeed Griffiths as 1 win wonders.

And not dropping the pink in the middle of those reds! 😂😂😂

Yes Ian he certainly was👍

@@linsayspence7070 yeah a great potter

He sure was far too negative with most of his play still A good player though. You don’t win a world title else

No the masters and UK as well I think

Not really it was a tough pot with not a great angle. Modern players may have taken it on, but he played a good shot getting the red out

He is mixed race father was Pakistani...funnily enough he looks more white these days

@@nostalgiachannel318 ive have never heard of a pakistani man have a surname of johnson. Lol

@@samadbaksh it's not his birth name he changed it to Joe Johnson probably took his mother's surname

Can Joe Johnson be converted into a Pakistani name?

​@@samadbaksh- He was born Joseph Malik. His step-father was named Johnson and Joe took his surname. I don't think Joe had anything to do with his biological Dad..
