Like Ray Wilkins, too young in this day and age.
Wow, another one gone.
I always admired the man.
Just 60
Eric Bristow.
Huge character.
Great guy. Had the privilege to meet him at the world champs a few years ago

Oh no...what a nice guy, only this week watched really good documentary about him and the other players of his era, so sad.
So sad. A darts legend, RIP Eric.
Blimey that's a bit of a shocker, but I suppose the booze and fags take its toll as Jocky Wilson found out.
Great player who really put Darts on the map.
Whoever does not know how to hit the nail on the head should be asked not to hit it at all.

Very sad day, great crowd response during premier league tonight, I grew up watching him and John Lowe
One of my darting heroes. A sad night indeed. RIP Crafty Cockney.
No bull from Brissie, he always spoke his mind. Knew him years ago when he was with Maureen and had the Crafty Cockney Club. Always had the same confident personality, on and off the dartboard. R.I.P mate.
Hated him with a passion back in the day, but lets face it he helped put darts on the big stage
I think a lot did. Seem to remember you were either an Eric Bristow or John Lowe man. I was for John Lowe as he was a playing partner of my uncle at county level.
Eric was one of the greats.

Gone way too soon...
Same age as me, hopefully I have looked after myself a little better? Eric did hammer his body. The match against Deller in 83 was the best darts match I've ever seen. RIP CC
Smoked, drank, left-over curry for breakfast. Old School RIP.
As an 8 year old boy I thought he was I darts god.
Instantly recognisable even after all those years. Went out on a 60 though, a little too soon. RIP Eric.
