He climbed garbage mountain in the BDO only to be beaten in the final,poor man is way out of his depth here though sadly.
A facile victory for Anderson.
Jeff failed to qualify for Lakeside and decided to enter the pdc event as a fall back option. But you could see his heart just wasnât in it tonight and that heâs still thinking what might have been.
Itâs a bit like Italy failing to qualify for the World Cup, entering the US Cup instead, and turning in a half-hearted, disinterested performance while enviously watching the goings on at the greatest show on earth.
Gary Anderson played well, but itâs one thing doing it in a friendly, and quite another doing it in proper, competitive action, as heâs found out to his cost so many times in the past.
Smith has proved in the past that he can do it on the big stage, Anderson hasnât.
The pdc and racism go hand in hand.
It seems itâs not just acceptable to wear blackface at the Alexandra Palace, itâs actively encouraged.
Will we be seeing people dressing up as âgolliwogsâ from the Enid Blyton âNoddyâ books, next? Perhaps some KKK hoods?
For the larfâ, like.
Thoughts, @Matty_Hislop?
Itâs disgraceful Sid, the guy shouldnât have been let in the door.
Itâs obvious that there is a problem with the English underclass that go to these events. I thought this type of nonsense died with the late Martin Fitzmaurice, unfortunately it hasnât.
But he was Matty, he was. Not only that, he was encouraged and egged on by the pdc and the horrible gambling cabal that surrounds it.
The pdc has a racism and a misogyny problem.
No surprise when a disgusting, parachute regiment beret-wearing, UKIP-loving, genitalia-groping Little Englander like Phil Taylor is its poster boy.
Darts fans are scumbags, this is hardly news.
The BDO are equally as bad, what Fitzmaurice said on stage should have led to him being arrested, instead the BDO crowd cheered him to the rafters.
The BDO is a safe haven for the many women who love the arrows.
Contrast the friendly, convivial and respectful family atmosphere of Lakeside with the drunken idiocy of the Ally Pally.
Lakeside is like a packed Mulliganâs, Palace Bar or Kehoeâs at 8pm on a Saturday night.
The Ally Pally is like a giant version of Chasers nightclub in Slough that featured in The Office, except there are no women, because they know whatâs likely to happen to them if they attend.
There was nothing friendly or convivial about the time Marty McCloskeyâs game was stopped at the Lakeside.
He was subjected to the most appalling anti-Irish abuse ever witnessed at a British sporting venue by the baying BDO mob.
Who was he playing??
Garry Thompson.
That never happened, mate.
Contrast that to the disgusting abuse the pdc boo boys meted out to William OâConnor the other night. Mick McGowan was also a regular target when he played at the Circus Tavern and Alexandra Palace.
Youâre in denial again.
The game was actually stopped and some scumbag was thrown out, thatâs how bad it got.
Itâs hilarious that you are claiming this never happened.
On the rare occasions there has ever been unpleasant scenes at BDO events, itâs always been subsequently proved that it came from pdc agent provocateur plants.
Itâs incredible that Barry Hearn goes to such lengths to discredit the superior rival organisation.
The pdc is FAKE NEWS!
My primary memory of the Foxâs Lakeside appearance is how his and Daryl Gurneyâs families sat together cheering both the boys on as they played their last 16 clashes one after the other.
Wonderful cross-border, all-island camaraderie.
Sadly Gurney retired from darts shortly afterwards.
Iâm glad youâve finally admitted it happened.
You are FAKE NEWS!
This, however, is not fake news.
This is the disgusting reality of pdc darts.
Pal, throw up a first class link to the Munster v Tigers thugby game pls.
Norris wins 3-0
