    Yeah Sky Sports went on me too so had to use that link for the draw.

    Great performance from Manley, deserved the win in the end and good to see him back on our tellies.

    Anyone know what King was moaning about? He really can be a sore loser.

    Fourth Round Draw & Order of Play - 1pm Saturday
    Board One
    Peter Manley v Mark Webster
    Andy Hamilton v Raymond van Barneveld
    Phil Taylor v Ken Mather
    Mark Walsh v Adrian Lewis

    King was moaning to the guy who did the scores in his match.
    Think he was saying that he got some wrong.
    He should have just taken the loss and got on with it.

    Some night of shocks. Wade just didnt seem intersted at all.
    Nicholson respone after his loss was pricless he was blaming the crowd and u could see he told them to fcuk off.

    I am hoping Barney wins it now. Taylor must be happy with Wade gone .

    Yeah I thought the same. I didn't really like Nicholson before last night but he has definitely gone up in my estimations after that interview. Not many players would do that and it shows the man has a bit of class.

    And now he has gone down in my estimations again after telling the crowd to fúck off when he lost last night. Total lack of class there.

    He won Double Top, Osbourne through 9-7.

    Great win for Webster 9-4 against Manley, he looked very solid. baxter fantastic again with a 9-1 win. Andy Smith through as well and so is Alex Roy in a cracker 9-8 against pub qualifier Andy Roberts.

    Fair play to Ken Mather, terrific performance to push Taylor all the way. Taylor averaged 115.5 to win 9-3. Mather can hold his head high after that.

    Great win for Jamie Caven 9-6 over Klaase, Caven playing great stuff at the mo. Priestley through 9-8 in an epic against Mark Frost and Lloyd through 9-2 against Thompson.

    Walsh against Lewis on now, should be brilliant.

    What is wrong with Barney.He looks like he has no Interest in Darts at all at the Moment.
    U would have taught with so many big players Gone he would have Fancied winning this.

    Taylor coasting through again. Looks odds on to win if u ask me.

    Maybe Osborne could cause a shock.

    It's not admirable by any matter of means but when the crowd are on his back so much it's hard not to vent some frustration.

    Just watched Taylor destroy Lawrenson 9-0. The man is a machine. 0.05 below his world record. Brilliant to watch. Who can stop him?

    Yeah, sorry. Was hoping Lawrenson would get that leg at the end. His one shot at a double the whole game. I thought he did ok though. Couple of maximums. Fair play to him

    Taylor just too good but well done to Osbourne on reaching his first final and putting up some sort of a fight. Also well done to Baxter, Painter, Caven, Tabern and Lawrence for gettig to the latter stages that most people wouldn't have expected.

    Good tournament overall.

    The one thing that stood out to me though is the fact that barney doesn't seem to be enjoying darts at all at the moment has looks like he has given up. The man needs to sort himself out if he is ever going to win anything again.

    Agree on Barney, he's playing an exhibition on the 20th here in Laois and if he's in this humour I dunno if I'm bothered going to watch him

    Have to say, I enjoyed watching the UK open, some cracking competitive matches, the highlight for me being the Wade v Manley match
