Re: QS Zero leg club
Don’t know whether this was missed before, but the other day Nathan Richards (“Gingerami”) won a game 5-0. He has cashed in 1 out of 153 previous tournaments.

Re: QS Zero leg club
He had 1 win out of his previous 109 matches in 4 years and 2 cashes in all 203 tournaments in his PDC "career". He actually beat Peter Manley in QSchool a few years ago...
Just to give a bit of background, he played 9 tournaments in the 2016 development tour. He won a grand total of zero legs.
He had a bit more of an active 2017 season. He played 21 tournaments and won 14 legs...
He started to take it more seriously in the 2018 season. He played in 36 tournaments, but again only won 16 legs.
You know the ol' saying about quitting, so last season he thought he'd give it another go try and gain a bit of cash. In 2019, he played 40 tournaments and won 9 legs including 50 legs against without reply.
Re: QS Zero leg club
Schleinitz and Payr dont look to have entered today so we are down to 5 runners in Euro school.
Yadav and Holyhead are no shows at uk school too. So we have just 4 runners left there.
And to add some gripping tension one of them has only gone and drawn DBG.

Re: QS Zero leg club
But Gingerami made the bbc report about the Q school, even got his photo in, so he will live off that for several years

Don't you think instead of offering a prize to the prediction winners, the money should be spent on a commemorative pin?
"The Golden Turd" award?

Re: QS Zero leg club
DBG should actually win that, but I fancy our Hero with Zero to break that duck.

No, of course not.
Edit: Now I'm with you... Jesus Christ. I thought it was just a generic quip.

Re: QS Zero leg club
And if you're reading this thread Nathan, I do apologise - I mean no ills, but when I read something like this I feel hard to be sympathetic...
"One of them is Gingerami. By night, Gingerami (real name Nathan Richards) works 12-hour shifts at the Amazon warehouse in Peterborough. By day, he spends every spare penny he has chasing his dream of playing professional darts. He’s brash and confident, fist-bumping everyone he sees, telling his next opponent he’s “already booked him a taxi home”. He’s also, in five years at Q-School, yet to win a single match.
The main arena, by contrast, is characterised by an unnerving and reverential hush; at least until early afternoon, when an enormous roar goes up. Finally, in his sixth year of trying, Gingerami has won his first ever match. “Five-nil,” he crows. “This is the year. I’ve had five sambucas and I’m going to get my tour card. Alas, the dream dies in round two as Gingerami is handed a 5-2 defeat and a warning for his behaviour at the oche.

Re: QS Zero leg club
Kevin Grebe lost 5-0 today, so 0 legs won in 4 days
Re: QS Zero leg club
He's clearly "not square" as my grandfather would have said.
Wins one game after all those hammerings and is going to get a card, drinking like a fish, all the odd behaviour. Needs help, clearly.

Fathers doing himself proud today. A whitewash against DBG surely deserves an honourable mention.

Monaghan falls at the final fence with a 1-5.
Over in Euro school as has been stated Grebe also heads to the clubhouse with a 0-5 to ensure his green zero leg jacket is secure.
