Lakeside memories

Il never forget the 07 final between Phil Nixon and wolfie Adams. Nixon was a pub player really but ended up qualifying and getting all the way to the final. He went 6-0 down in the final, at the interval he stabbed himself in the leg with his darts and went on to win 6 sets on the bounce. Wolfie won the final set to ruin the fairytale.

Nixon the poor chap passed away a couple of years after that and Wolfies wife ran off with their gardener.

That final was fixed. Week after the memorable Taylor Barney final. BDO had to do something to grab the limelight.

Second year running the World Championship been cancelled. Darts taking a very responsible and cautious approach to COVID.

I think a lunatic bought the BDO and none of the players will play in it, they now are going running a tournament around April time under the WDF wing Iā€™m told. All the cowboys will be playing in that

Martin ā€œspinelessā€ Adams, etc etc.

Nixon was a grandad who came from nowhere that year, he had a dart board in his shed and used be in there playing morning noon and night, pity he didnā€™t win it in fairness
