Didnt see anything wrong by Price in that match. He was annoyed when Whitlock tried to question scores, Whitlock did say something like "it doesn't matter"

Seen a comment saying Price ignored 2nd handshake, having watched it I dont think he did. Pretty sure Whitlock was waiting to shake Russ Brays hand.
Thinking of one.

He perhaps could have been more gracious towards Simon at the end but maybe a bit nit-picky. Picking a fight with the crowd isn't always going to work, was lucky to win but played well.

Think the crowd started after Whitlock score incident, dont think the crowd seen what happened and just seen Prices reaction.

Yeah, as I recall it, all 8 BDO players had to play either Anderson or MvG in all of their group matches. They would surely have blown away all other players with ease.

Mr. Trebek, "Delusion 200" next, please.

I may have been mistaken, I thought there had been another recent match between them with Price a sore winner, but looks like I'm wrong.

So the only story on the Slam by BBC is fartgate. Now getting loads of social media coverage given BBC have broken the story :)

Can’t see Hearn and PDC being happy. Could be punishment by DRA although is Harms exempt as not PDC player, or does he make himself covered by them as he played a PDC event.

It's really sad that the PDC monkeys can't act as professionally as the BDO boys..........brings the game into disrepute. It's true what they say, money does curupt...........Shameful behaviour.

No he can still be disciplined even if he’s a bdo player

5 men up on that stage.whos to know who had dodgy guts and was popping out the guffs? The BDO and Harms in particular brought little to this tournament other than moaning about being called amateur and crying over stray farts.

Hearn responds to BBC jokingly suggesting as I recommended bringing in the DRA to investigate.

It's a shame that the BDO players can't seem to accept losing when outplayed and always look for an excuse, makes them look like amateurs.......

Just sat down to the table at the venue and must say it is much better than the Civic. At least there is room between the tables.
