Let's play Darts! - Lakeside World Championship 2009

Hankeys ould wan should be put down. Christ almighty. I cant get the image of those bingo wings out of my head. Not feeling too well as a result.

[QUOTE=“Sidney, post: 231026, member: 183”]Lovely darts there as the Count beat the Cunt. Think of darts and think of Stoke and you only think of one man - Ted “the Count” Hankey (although I think there might have been a lad called Taylor who won a couple of world titles back in the early 90’s but faded inexplicably from the scene. Pity, he could have been a player if he’d stuck with it).

The Count says his improved form this year is down to cutting down his drinking before matches to three pints. From twelve. And his fitness obsession is really paying dividends. Great to see him back in the final and superb to see the camaraderie with Wolfie on stage at the end. Amazing averages too, up into the nineties, that’s enough to win you any title in the world.

And like Tony Green says, this is the biggest title in the world, the one they all want to win, but at the end of the day those players up there are like a family. And the players always get the very best of order. You’ll find the true darts fan at Lakeside.

Best game of the championship and proof that any imminent moves by players away from the family will only be trimming dead wood. In fact it will strengthen the BDO. Looking forward to the 2015 championship which will consist of three players - Adams, Hankey and John “Boy” Walton.[/QUOTE]
The 40 greatest dart players in the world go to post tomorrow to do battle for a title we’ve been talking about since 2009. It would be fairytale stuff if the great Martin Adams could win a fourth World title.

God bless the BDO.

I’m pumped. Real darts at last…
