RIP Sid Waddell

I hate darts - its brick etc etc etc

But I did like his way of commentating - I guess the only reason to watch darts for me
 
Won't be the same without him, RIP Sid

Totally. I have got used to John Gywnne and Wayne Mardle recently, but they just dont come up with classic phrases that Sid used to come out with

He looks about as happy as a penguin in a microwave."

"Bob came on like the Laughing Cavalier … now he looks like Lee Van Cleef on a bad night."

"It's the nearest thing to public execution this side of Saudi Arabia."
"[He's] as happy as a hound-dog who's won a year's supply of Boneo."

"If we'd had Phil Taylor at Hastings against the Normans, they'd have gone home."


A massive loss to the World of Darts. RIP Sid you will be greatly missed
