Such sad news losing a proper legend like Eric Bristow. The sport of darts owes him everything, he made it the huge success it is today. He was the first superstar of darts, an amazing player but also a massive character. One of my biggest inspirations. He’ll be sorely missed.

Found this on my phone and had a good cry. Eric was a free spirit Rude, Arrogant, Sarcastic and funny, really, funny. He had a few pints last night, entertained the guests, then ... The crowd sang his name and Liverpool said goodbye to one of life’s great characters. #RIPEric

I cannot believe that my old friend Eric Bristow passed away tonight. He was instrumental in making darts popular and the 5 World Champs he won set the standard. I played him in North Shields when he was 17 years old and have been a friend ever since RIP Eric, never be forgotten
