As it is, he obviously loves his job and doesn't want to pack it in. As someone a lot wiser than me once said, if you love your job you never work a day in your life, so good luck to him.

I could be wrong (and someone will certainly tell me if I am) but I'm fairly sure Wolfie is fully professional and makes enough from his exbo work to get by. No idea about the rest.
Hasnt Duzza openly said he doesnt want to quit his job.
Working for a living is far more fulfilling than playing darts.......

Maybe O'Shea and Fitton are still popular enough to get by on exbo's?
I thought O'Shea, Adams, Fitton, Fordham, Hankey and Robson were all living off just their darts earnings. Of the others, Duzza and Waites probably could if they wanted to.

I thought Fordham owned a pub? How could I have forgotten Adams and Hankey, both probably quite busy on the exbo circuit.

Montgomery still painting fences for some extra income? ;)
