RIP Jocky Wilson

Just a couple of days after his 62nd birthday

A fitting if somewhat bizarre and early tribute to the great man.

For our younger viewers, look at the photo in the background and think wtf?

30 years to find out who dexys were singing about.

lets look at what he would have won

i saw him regularly up until about 6 weeks ago.
im a bus driver in fife, jocky was on the bus most days.
he was a really genuine guy, last time i spoke to him at the beginning of february i told him i was going to canada and he told me it was an awesome place and to enjoy my holiday.
he certainly didnt seem ill at all, i can hardly believe that he’s gone.
(when my wife txtd me to tell me this morning my first response was f*** off, seriously?)
62 aint old.

no dancing in the streets of Kircaldy tonight 🙁

Many old memories of watching him on the tele when I was young(er)

62 is too young

^^^ Was the above quote not “They will be dancing in the streets of Raith tonight”?. As the commentator associated Jockys team Raith Rovers being the actual name of the town.

Either way , some darts player and probably made a pittance out of the game compared to the PDC so called superstars.
