Sadly a true darting legend passed away aged 62, I used to love his tussles with Bristow, slurping beer and fag in hand ah the good old days :grin:

Brilliant darts player at a time when you had some serious competition from Bristow, Lowe, Deller, Anderson. One of the all time greats. To quote former player Bob Anderson from about 25 years ago "Trying to stop Jocky at his best was like trying to stop an Inter City 125 with a cricket bat" :lol: RIP Jocky.
