Van Barneveld Announces Retirement Plans (PDC announcement)

[PreciesJJ]

Just watched the interview he gave yesterday with Arjan van der Giessen.
Seems to think the PL is nailed on the way he mentions it.

Also said he will be remembered for his 5 tv 9 darters and his 8 World Titles.

those 8 world titles shome mishtake shurley !!!

I can't be arsed checking if he actually won it three times but for some reason the Dutch like to count the WDF World Cup Singles as a world title. Maybe it's that?

Yes, he called it 'Floor World Championships'.

[Zeyes]

No surprise he struggled to be motivated for the tour, had nothing left to prove as a three-time winner of the biggest prize in floor darts.

Do people actually buy that sort of thing?, it's like Joey from Friends with his "Ferrari".
Imagine someone wearing something like that with McD's plastered all over it , sat in McD's eating his Happy Meal.

That's one of the things the BDO _should_ be for. Players who can't handle the PDC any more, for whatever reason: health problems, declining ability, lack of motivation, etc.

[Vriezzer]

LoL.

No apparently a source close to Barney said he'd made his money in the exhibition league now, financially secure he wanted to return to real darts and would love to win another Lakeside crown.

That actually would be fun to see. Load of old cobblers of course but I wonder if a really big name will do that at some point when they "retire".
