Pretty unspectacular really. I'm talking about the match not the 132. :)

Barneveld seems to be tired the last few days?

tired with doing what ? has he started delivering letters again when he is not playing ? has he started lifting bricks for a mate in his spare time ? what can he be tired out by some of the divas that are starting to pop up in darts need a reality check , infact he maybe needs to do something inbetween comps to take his mind of thinking negative thoughts

It seems that whoever beats Wright will win the tournament. This has happened in a few tournaments so this can easily happen again if Taylor plays the way he did against MvG.

A few weeks ago Taylor said in an interview with PDC.tv that he was aware of Van Gerwen's success and he was intent on stopping him. Few weeks later he beats Michael with a 106 average and now he's gonna win the UK Open... bleh. Sounds so easy.

Is Taylor back to using the phase 5's or is it the new ones with the coating on ?

so by the looks of things taylor was using tactics against mvg by slowing the game down at every chance he had , this is being highlighted by the fact he is not stopping and waiting when the crowd are singing in the semi final , now I don't think it's cheating but have seen a few on here accusing certain players of cheating what do you think ?

you know that Hamilton won 3 of their last 4 matches, do you?
Or do you simply dislike both of them? That you hate Taylor becomes obvious in every single post you make ;)

You sound like my wife - she thinks unless you are lugging bricks about a building site it isn't possible to be tired. There is also mental tiredness.

I think it is exactly as much cheating/wrong and as as much distracting for the opponent as MvGs and e.g. Hamiltons celebrations and roaring after a 180/checkout or even lesser occasions.
You will notice that both of them don't do that much when they are in a comfortable lead as well....

Turning into a damp squib this match, atmosphere seems a bit flat. Even the inebriated tones of "there's only one phil taylor" sound half hearted.

am not much of a gambler but in a field of over 100 does each way not pay down to 4 places like in the grand national ?
