That’s not a saying in the darting world, mate.

Agreed. The correct saying is: " Trebles for show, and don’t take a lift in Phil Taylors van"

Right let’s say i was the chairman of the Limerick county board and Tom Ryan and Eamonn Cregan were the two main contenders for the Limerick job.Because of his involvement with LIT and with the Limerick minors Eamonn would be well tuned in with modern day intercounty hurling.But Tom is an astute hurling man himself.I would publicly appoint Tom and Eamonn as joint managers but in reality Tom would be running the show.Richie Bennis and Iron Mike Houlihan would be the selectors i would hire.I admit that Cregan has the all ireland on his CV but surely people can agree that when you take both gentlemens time with Limerick into account then it’s becomes pretty clear that Tom did a better job as Limerick manager?

Cregan needs to be kept under control just in case he get’s rid of all the squads best players too early.

I would say about November 2009. Sean Buckley was a terrific presenter in fairness.
