Joe Davis was 15 times world snooker champion. He also
helped to ensure the game became a popular TV sport.
Μύ
This week's episode of the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ East Midlands' show Late Tackle
(Wednesday 21 March, 11.15-11.45pm) visits the former home of one of
our greatest sportsmen.
Μύ
Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ commentator Clive Everton and snooker legend Willie
Thorne give viewers the low-down on the legendary Davis who
grew up in the pubs of Derbyshire.
Μύ
Then there's Paul Danson, a Leicester football referee
who was kicked out of the premiership after bitter complaints from a
manager.
Μύ
He lets the Late Tackle cameras follow him on match day giving viewers
a unique look behind the scenes of 'the job they love to hate'.
Μύ
Meanwhile, presenter Mark Chapman continues his top
ten lists slot by featuring sportspeople who fans love to loathe.
Who will head his list this week? Could it be the former Leicester
City wide boy Robbie Savage or the tough-tackling Stuart Pearce?

Late Tackle is on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ ONE in the East Midlands on Wednesdays from 11.15-11.45pm.
