  1. WOW, that was a fair bit easier than anyone could have imagined.

    Wade didn't seem to be overly interested, like he has done in the past, and he also seems to be turning into a bit of a fat pleb!

    I wonder what the post match interviews will be like?

  2. Just about to start just now.

    The streaming is very good indeed glad I got the years subscription for £24 I think it's worth it for getting priority tickets etc. as well.

    I've got £50 e/w on Anderson from the start at 5's so would love Gary boy to beat the Perv here. Still in profit regardless.

    Best of luck on that one, i hope he hounds the fat tube as well!:D

  3. So much for me thinking Newton would make a decent game of it against Taylor, 5-0 down already!

    9-3 final score, anyone watching it live, was it Taylor playing to his usual form or did Newton play the hype rather than the opponent?

  4. Evening results...

    Wes Newton 8-7 Mark Webster

    Simon Whitlock 5-8 Mervyn King

    Terry Jenkins 8-6 Steve Beaton

    Phil Taylor 8-3 James Wade

    Merv came from 5-2 down to win that match against Whitlock, great comeback. Here's the quarter final line-up...

    Mervyn King v Terry Jenkins

    Wes Newton v Phil Taylor

    Gary Anderson v Andy Smith

    Steve Farmer v Colin Lloyd

    Wes Newton is really coming onto his game recently, this could be a close one and i wouldn't be surprised to see Newton take it.

    For me it should be a

    King

    Newton

    Anderson

    Farmer

    semi-final line up.

    Pity it's not televised other than on PPV.

  5. Just looking on the planet darts website it has a list of the players fined over recent misdemenours.

    The obvious one for Colin Lloyd for punching the board £1K fine.

    But then a couple of curious ones, he was also fined £1K for throwing his darts to the floor "in a reckless manner" at the end of the match

    Paul Nicholson was also fined £1K for doing the same, that might be fair enough, but did Gary Anderson not throw his remaining darts to the floor after every match he won at the Worlds?

    I also see that young Aaron Monk was been fined £350, but he had a 3 month suspended ban, for bringing the game into disrepute, they don't say what the 3 offences are but it must have been a bit more serious to warrant a suspended ban.

    He needs to screw the nut if he is going to make himself a success in the game, he definately has the talent, too good to throw it away by being a bit of a lad surely.

    Possibly it's just the authorities giving him a boot up the arse to keep him on the straight and narrow, but one more slip within the next six months and the ban will kick in.

  6. 60ish on the OOM last year got circa £15 grand. It is possible that due to this Q school weeding out some of the poorer PDC players this year, that the tougher fields may lead to money being harder to win?

    So what are the total number of places up for grabs in the PDC now that they have introduced this system?

  7. John Henderson qualified today, quite easily by the look of his results. Will be good to have another Scottish player on the PDC tour. Hope the big fella does well.

    Delighted to see the big man get through to the PDC events, hopefully now that he has been given a year off from his work he will really put the effort in and pay all his backers back with some decent performances.

    I agree with the others who say he needs to try to do something about his fitness if he wants to compete at the highest level on the stages, the heat will kill him up there.

    Another thing i would love to see is if he gets to one of the televised competitions and wins a match, Smiling Dave Clark would not have a fucking clue what he was talking about with that strong Aberdeenshire accent!

    Get wired into them Hendo!!

  8. Ross Smith against van de Wiel now, can't be any better than that last match.

    As from tommorrow the Lakeside will be taking precedence!

    Keep us informed of the score in the meantime.smile.gif
