Famous dart player from the era when players would get p*ssed up and still play amazingly. Bit of a legend made the game more colourful. Also played his part in the great Dexy's Top of the Pops farce which I actually remember watching. Although Kevin Rowlands stated later it was a stunt I don't buy it. 
Or read Sid Waddell's better account over at the guardian.
Giorgio Chinaglia
Always remember him as being part of that great New Cosmos team in the mid to late 70`s
Just saw on the news..

[Quote]Melbourne criminal Mark ''Chopper'' Read has been given just weeks to live after being diagnosed with liver cancer, according to reports.
''I'm not going to ask for a liver transplant, it's not fair,'' he said. ''I'm 55 years old; I'm not going to put my name down against some 10-year-old kid.'' A year earlier, he said he contracted hepatitis C by using shared razor blades in prison.
''I do what I'm told and try to live a clean life. But this is killing my liver and killing me. I will die,'' he said.
