Neilly Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Fancied Barney earlier on in the day and got on it at 2.50. Magic. Agree with Naitch, King is losing it. Why let the arseholes get to you? I think that's easier said than done Adam. Having been at a couple of PL events the atmosphere is unbelievable and the noise generated incredible, it must be so difficult to block that out especially when they are ALL against you. I suppose if those arseholes weren't turning up every Thursday these guys wouldn't be playing for the prize money they are so it's a bit catch 22. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Forgot to add I think King is deliberately playing the crowd now to put Barney off his game and it is working. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are professionals though, surely they should be used to the shit that comes with it these days? Either way, I'm not going to be crying any tears for King if they put him off enough to make him lose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Brilliant 130 bull finish from Merv to get him back into things - I think you're right Neilly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neilly Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Thank f**k for that. Best I have seen Barney for a long time he really seemed to have the weight of the dart spot on most of the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davis Love III Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Haven't watched much of the Premier League this year, but have kept close tabs on the Players Championships and UK Open qualifiers. There seem to be an awful lot of players in strong form going into the UK Open in a few weeks, a tournament which always brings up surprises. Also delighted to see improved form from John Part this year, clearly working hard to get himself back up there, hopefully he'll have a good summer in the big tv events to help him along. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomDom Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Thornton is shite and after a good period he is consistantly not good enough for the PDC. I was about to say he should get back to the BDO before he makes a fool of himself, but it's a bit late for that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomDom Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 I don't know if it includes today, but he sits in the upper 40s in the UK Open OOM on the PDC site. Barring death, he should be there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F_T_Y Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 It all comes down to tonight in nottingham for the premier league stars.Jenkins v wade first match,game that wade has to win and hope other results go in his favour.Or if he draws he needs baxter to lose by more than 3 legs against barney.Baxter v barney second match,Baxter wins he qualifies,a draw would probably do unless wade wins by 4 legs against jenkins.Whitlock v king match of the night,a draw or better for the wizard he qualifies. Taylor v lewis last match too much for lewis to do hes pretty much out of the race imo. Jenkins v wade.Can see wade winning this comfortably maybe by four legs. Baxter v barney.No pressure on barney and thats when he plays best cant see baxter winning here. Whitlock v king .Can see a draw here with many 180s and big checkouts.Hope king ignores the crowd this week. So wade,whitlock and king to go to wembley. The draw for the first round of the uk open is today aswell nothing on the pdc site yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Naitch Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 Ronnie Baxter didn't turn up when it really mattered ... on the wrong end of a 8-2 doing against Barney. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
