Re: BBC Alan Evans documentary

I haven't watched this yet but did they mention that his game began its decline when the oche was standardised to the current 7' 9'' 1/4 distance ? His 'legendary' status was built in the pre early tv days when over 7' 6'' he was virtually unbeatable and barely missed a T20. I don't think you can re...

Re: WDF World Championship 2022 at Lakeside

And who is to blame for the shameful state that ladies darts is in ? Surely its the very people who have been involved in promoting and running their events for the past 50 years. You are a proven absolute failure at darts administration Tommy Thompson now is the time to clear off into the distance ...

Re: England Darts forced to find a new venue

Re: WDF World Championship 2022 at Lakeside

Can the man from the pub enter a qualifier for this? If so then this event gets the thumbs up from me. The PDC World Championship is the biggest and features the best but it is a little too exclusive. There is room for a World Championship that anyone can enter. A man from the pub could enter and w...

Re: Darts greatest choker-sponsored by Gaz

It really isn't 'the very definition of choking' at all. Choking describes a situation where a person has some kind of advantage over an opponent, has chances to beat them, but isn't mentally strong enough to get over the line. The biggest choke of all time, darts wise, was Mike Gregory. Surely you...

Re: World Seniors Darts Championships

Did I, at any stage, suggest that Bristow and Lowe got a wild-card through to the knockout stage? They got the same invite for the first several Matchplays. which was a knockout event. The fact that the world championship started with a group stage is completely irrelevant, which is the point that ...

Re: World Seniors Darts Championships

Not for the first time in this thread, I'm amazed that that this is a point of contention. By your logic, any players who go out in the group stage of the Grand Slam haven't participated in the tournament, and the Premier League is a one night four player knockout event. Not at all there is no logi...

Hankey not been invited then ? Exactly the same amount of qualifiers Bristow, Lowe, Deller et al had to win to qualify for the first several Skol world championships, which you championed as being superior to their respective Lakesides. The 'qualifiers' for those early PDC ones were the groups stage...

Since then, can you think of another high profile time where a woman beat a top-class man in a head to head contest?
