I have been pleasantly surprised at this year's Lakeside..I've enjoyed what I've seen....I think the commentary has actually been ok...the actual production of the event has been good..much better than recent BDO efforts..this is a proper production that comes across fine..
The standard will never be PDC standard..the last PDC World championship was awesome in my mind and this will never live up to that standard wise, those days have long gone....some of the games have been a bit iffy standard wise to be honest but it's a grower and it's got better...tonight's matches were good and the 4 players left are quality players regardless of code..
Lakeside has come across well and I still think it would be a risk to leave but people seem to think the indig02 will get good promotion so maybe it would be ok...risky though...
All in all its been pretty enjoyable..commentators are ok..production good..presentation fine..standard very mixed but it will never be the PDC now but the last 4 now could all be very decent PDC players in my opinion?

It wasn't a special World Championship. MVG was barely troubled

[DavidB]

He wasn’t troubled at all, simple as!!!

Mitchell trying to act like a tough guy when he looks light in the loafers in that awful pink shirt and throwing darts with pink flights.

Welcome to the forum. Love it when newbies get stuck in straight away.

Thank you. I discovered this forum this evening.

I beg to differ Irwin

Was kind of obvious

Didnt watch as cant stick watching Mitchell anymore. Happy with the semi finalists.

Would prefer a new winner being honest, dont mind Duzza but dont wont him equalling the 3 in a row.

It would be great and he would only be two behind Bristow's record of 5 world titles then.

Seriously? Yet another of these accounts?

I take it this is Frank Drebin returning? Although he was already a multiple.

Is still the case as the Japanese lady got to final she get invited back next year 1 less place thru takings then

It shows you how boring the ally pally event is, It is not even a decent warm up event for the real world championship which is Lakeside.

Proper Darts fans prefer Lakeside.

Something about how you control the posting of a moron....

A few folks on fanatics not happy about the behaviour of the 'pdc fans ' who were in last night. Was it bad the wooing and whistles?

Talking of best of order. I watched the ladies game last night. What a myth it is about the silence when folks are throwing. Couldn't believe the noise from folks talking to each other. It got louder as the game went on. Can't bl a mm me that on the pdc.

[devosteve]

Off to the footie shortly. So recording the final.

wonder if hearn will be interested even more in ladies darts if the Japanese lady wins?

True about MVG..but overall I enjoyed this year's PDC Worlds more than I have enjoyed a darts event for a long time...and I've seen them all since 1978 .

That argument made my head hurt

They just love harping back to the 80 s thinking the lakeside is the best tournament in the world played to the best of order in front of thousands of people

[oche balboa]

Zapp would love to Zapp all the bdo fans away from life

If they are in the lakeside then they are not PDC fans.
I haven't had a look but I imagine it is one or two idiots saying such a thing.

Very good

[BDO Brad]

I’m absolutely devastated for Scott.

You feeling ok this morning hun?

[ChrisW]

[Dean Martin]

Good stuff from Suzuki.

[ChrisW]
