Wouldn't waste your time Steve.

Ifm made an arsehole of himself on a fairly consistent basis on the forum, and his Fusilier driven OP on this thread was one of the biggest meltdowns in this forum's history. When he sobered up, he was suitably embarrassed enough to desist posting on the forum, which is a decision we should all respect, rather than chase him across alternative fora. Let sleeping dogs lie.

Come on it is pretty dead, just a handful of people posting now and most of that content is mindless bickering and piss taking. Ian was right in his original assumption. Maybe mortally wounded would be a better description at present........ ;-)

"I am round the corner watching F1 qualifying with a mate, I will be there in 10 minutes once it is finished"

Ah thats a point, just checked on my pristeen Betfair account and I can only get £50ew on a 50/1 shot for a driver to win the F1 championship. So how did Comedy Dave manage to get £375ew with the same bookie on the same market last year at the same odds?

Puzzling, isnt it? :WWWW:

Sorry, my mistake, I can get £50ew on and they will send me a free bag of prawn crackers.

I bet a couple of ‘hits’ are being arranged as I type, well maybe in 6 hours when he gets out of his pit.

To be fair it was a decent wind up at the time, had Oche checking his phone and watching the door anyways.

Dave should turn up to one meet up really, Lakeside would be best as he could replace that bloody carpet in the lobby after he's been thrown out of the hall, win win.

This forum (or ANY forum for that matter) will never be like the ‘good old days’ (when we first started TSOD, after the abrupt demise of The Stars of Darts)

Social Media is now the ‘go to’ medium for instant results, gossip and information – this wasn’t the case back in the supposed ‘good old days’.

Forums still have a place (clearly, as you are reading this) but they aren’t the places they once were.
Is this why you haven't logged on for over two months?
