    He was undoubtedly a cracking player in his day that's for sure.

    Hasn't there been a few Leeds 'greats' lost in the past year? RIP.

    Sad sad news indeed, had the pleasure of his company many a times back in the day and what a nice guy he was, playing pool with him one day and the talk got around to the 73 final and I asked him about the save. Told me it was a great save but the only reason he saved it is because he hit the ball perfect, said if he had of scuffed it monty wouldn't have saved it. RIP PETER, always a pleasure

    Never saw him play but my Dad rated him. RIP Peter. Luckily Monty’s not in front of the pearly gates!

    Met him once when I ended up in his pub in Leeds in the late 90s

    Took my “humour” in great spirits, and had a few brilliant put downs in return. Seemed to be a top bloke

    RIP
