If you didn’t see it, here it is again on BBC2. Legendary. Don’t spoil the other result for me by the way, I deliberately avoided it for the highlights.
sid, i’d hate to spoil the result of the other match for you but i will put the result in a spoiler for those who do wish to find out what happened…
The result of the other match was:
Everyone in the room was bored to death.
Just saw an interview with Gary Anderson, one of the finalists in the PDC event on the sports news there. Very upset about how he was treated by the crowd tonight. You just don’t get that kind of carry on from the real darts people who make up the Lakeside crowd, where all players are treated with reverential respect.
I believe he was booed when he came on too, didn’t see his walk on tonight but saw some of his walk ons in the earlier rounds and he was booed then. Whitlock last year too.
Ross Smith has a very tasty looking lady friend here. A bit like Kirsty Gallacher the former TV presenter.
Can you provide us with some evidence of this, please.
I was listening and you could hear it clearly in the background, the crowd could see his face on the big screens.
Impressive performance by Ross Smith there with a 4-1 win over Willy van de Wiel. Martin Adams will have plenty to think about ahead of their quarter final clash.
If you tune into Sky Sports News, you’ll probably see the interview with Anderson. If its evidence from myself you’re looking for as regards crowd trouble, I can’t be of any help as I was watching the World Championship from the Lakeside.
Christ almighty this pro BDO shite may have had some legs last year but it is beginning to get seriously tired and boring at this stage.
I wouldn’t have thought darts would be high on the list of events that accountancy firms would want to sponsor?
I thought rugby would be more their scene.
:rolleyes:
The blandness of this thread continues.
Fuck you Farmer. Fuck you.
Impressive allright with an 84 average, top darts.
Magnificent match between Martin captain wolfie england gerry wolfie england captain adams and John boy Walton last night. A shame there had to be a loser.
Fine showing by debutant Dean Winstanley in another cracking match against the Assassin.
It’s shaping up to be a great tournament and as always, the crowd is respectful of the throwers. The yobbery displayed by the yahoos attending the other world championship was a disgrace. Sky really does poison anything it touches. The ridiculous chanting at the end of every set, the chanting that goes on while players throw, the aforementioned booing of Gary Anderson, the crowd basically consists of gougers who have heard that ‘the darts is a great piss up’.
It’s a sickening charade that has as much to do with the proud tradition of darts as Bobby George has with tasteful jewellery.
Look we all know the PDC have their crowd problems but the standard is undeniably light years ahead of the BDO.
OK, we get it. You don’t like darts. Now fuck off with yourself.
Sidney. Why do you have that facist cunt as your avatar? He turned his back on all the people who made the BDO what it was in it’s heyday.
Flano, is that who i think it is in the avatar ie Olly Croft?
Wales captain Martin Phillips just about held off Holland’s Joey Ten Berge to win 4-3.
Expecting another big performance from young Kellett here. Wolfie on co-commetary with Crofty.
It is indeed Dunph.
This is developing into a right good contest between Kellett and Dekker.
