So sorry to hear about Jockey. I met him at a charity evening and he was what it say's on the tin. No airs or graces, just lots of laughs. R.I.P. Jocky mate.

RIP Jocky Wilson, a true true character of the game. His games with Bristow were always firery encounters. A sad loss for darts

For anyone interested there was a film made on Jocky Wilson, here is a trailer for it...

Very sad news Sad But every time I think of him, though, I can't help laughing at when Dexy's Midnight Runners went on Top of the Pops performing their hit "JACKIE Wilson Said", only for some idiot at the BBC to put a picture of Jocky on the backdrop!!!:

There's very strong evidence that this wasn't a mistake but was done by some pissed off members of BBC staff. Still very funny though.

His sayings were many and legendary, but my all time favourite has to be:

"We couldn't have more excitement if Elvis walked in and asked for a chip sandwich."

It just won't be the same without him. RIP mate.
