Losers who disappears when they has to mark next game
Opponents who get called to play, suddenly need a smoke, piss and a pint.
Venues that are too hot/cold to play in
All boards not being setup to the same distance/height.
Markers who move their head on your 2nd dart to see what it’s hit. (Scoring wise not on doubles)
Markers who gets all your scores wrong but never one of your opponent

Just about to throw for a double (2nd dart) and the marker suddenly crouches down, I hit it but it was weird. Asked her afterwards and she said that someone beind her had told her to move because they couldn't see the D10 so she got out of the way

Yes and as soon as they are out they are being told to go home, they can't even hang around to watch the later matches......that is really annoying.ifm wrote:Paddy McGinty wrote:What I hate most is traveling to a darts event and being asked to go home because it's too dangerous to travel even though the tournament still goes ahead.
Orrrrrrrrr, people who don't play darts claiming that it is a good thing that actual dart players are forced to play in conditions that adversely affect their performance and chances of winning money.

Re: What are the things that annoy you in darts ??
Another thing I hate is being drenched with urine and verbally abused whilst attending a darts tournament, that is after spending long periods looking at the back of the people in front of me as they have decided to stand up and sing a silly children's song.......
I once watched a boring exhibition in Australia full of PDC players trying to make a easy buck and could you believe it we had our chairs snatched from beneath us and assembled into a huge crude pyramid, thousands of chairs piled high.....
Another thing I hate is players using narcotics to enhance their performance........should be a life time ban for they are cheating the honest and the good out of a living.

Commentators that don`t have a clue. John Rawling currently stands out, wish ITV would not use him for darts as cant stand it when he`s in the box its like he`s trying too hard but still comes across as clueless, along with obviously that Tony guy who used to do the BDO.

Re: What are the things that annoy you in darts ??
People who think averages are the be all and end all of a darts match.
Really gets on my nerves when I see people saying they hit this or that average, Ask if their average is good enough to play at certain levels or most of all...The totally clueless ones that think because they hit 100+ average in 1 leg of darts makes them good enough to play top level darts.
I blame the PDC for a lot of the hype over averages, its not even 3 legs into some matches and commentators have a hard on for them once a players average creeps over 100 then as soon as a players average drops to the low 90's or worse they shut up about it.

Riley's.....
These greedy gits do everything they can to keep players in their venues all day and charge top whack for food and drink, Seen a weekly comp advertised for Worcester Rileys starting tomorrow, No details of prize money, Format or anything more than a big payout for the finals night and seeded draw for the finals, I asked on the page advertising it for details a few days ago and have been ignored.
I played in the Riley's Midland Masters last time it was held, Given you had to win a venue to qualify for the finals at Wolverhampton, Travel there, Spend all day spending money there, £50 for making the semi finals was disgusting, Certainly wouldn't do that again if it was anything near the same and as it is now, 3 years ago I used to practice daily in Riley's...barely ever set foot in any of their clubs now.
