Discussion

Anyone any information where the man is these days? (Why he's not in darts, what he's doing etc)? Would be good to add it. Porterjoh 19:30, 17 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is purely anecdotal so probably not suitable for the article: Last I heard, Jocky was back living in his native Kirkcaldy. He has constant health problems as a result of all the years of smoking and drinking, and pretty down on his luck. Whatever money he made out of darts is long gone. He will always be a Scottish working-class hero though. Grievous Angel 17:40, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Jocky's date of birth

Jocky's date of birth has sprung up as 30 December, 1951 I have added {{Fact}} because most websites list him as being born in 1951 and I haven't (yet) seen anything to support his date of birth being correct. Seedybob2 17:31, 10 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds OK, so he should be "Category:1951 Births" ! Hugo999 (talk) 09:27, 10 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Regiment?

With army service, it's customary to say which branch of the service, or in the infantry, which regiment. Valetude (talk) 18:41, 22 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
