RIP Sid......

That's two words. I don't understand either of them.:uhoh:

This (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2187300/Sid-Waddell-dies-The-voice-darts-72.html) might help you, LR

I remember Sid. Back in the 70s At those times they played tournaments at Pontin's Prestatyn. Sid was there as a commentating celeb (not televised) he was staying at the then Grand Hotel by the beach.

Gave me a trick how to never lose at 301/501.... Allow your challenger to double his/her score throughout the game. The challenger starts on a double, the double score has to be doubled and all further scores through the game have to be doubled (for the challenger) ending, the challenger has finish on a double doubling the double. No way one can win? Happy days and a few pints won.:ok:

He also devised "Indoor League", featuring the legendary Fred Trueman, which we used to watch when I were a lad.

It was the seventies. They were horrible.

"Ya've gotta be fit to play darts.."

"Ya' usually get y' Shakespeare on BBC2 but ya couldn't wish for better drama than da' darts..."

"A lotta people think Jockey drinks for pleasure, he actually drinks to help him perform..."

Never really got the darts Sid, but boy, we spent hours listening to your commentary, may you Rest in Peace Sir.:)

"William Tell could hit an apple. This boy could hit a processed pea."

And another voice from my youth disappears.
RIP Sid.

"Jocky Wilson. What an athlete!"

RIP Sid, one of the greats of any form of commentary.
