I still think it was a bad dose of the nerves, 1 time he hit D1 when going for T20

I taught it was nerves when watching it live but after watching it again l think he was pissed.
He was strugling to hold the darts and wobbling on the stage.

Dont suppose theres a replay of that on youtube ? :eek::p

Can watch it on the BBC iPlayer. There's no way it was nerves, he was absolutely pissed. He could hardly stand still on stage, and nearly fell over the oche a couple of occasions.
Not being able to transfer the dart from left hand to right was a giveaway as well. Must be the worst televised performance of all time

He played better in the 3rd set with a few 60+ scores! :D

Just watched the first leg there. OMG! He is totally pissed. I know nerves can affect some people quite badly but dropping your darts (twice!), tripping over the ocky, double 1 when aiming for treble 20, scoring 5 with 3 darts all in 1 leg??? LOL
I'd hate to see him if he had to give a speech in public!

Adams didn't exactly cover himself in glory either, but sometimes sh1t players can drag you down to their level.

Didnt seem drunk and didnt notice any wobbling, he just seemed to be throwing really bad darts.

Lemegeton

some people suffer from really bad nerves. he did not look pissed to me. if he was drunk then i have no sympathy for him. they said he was in the first round of the pdc before and got badly beaten too.

hope Mcclosky does well, but why did he have to be a ginger :rolleyes:

There making a big deal out of Adams winning back to back Winmau World Masters titles. This makes me laugh, first time it's been done in this long and how well Adams is playing ect ect.

The fact is the World Masters is held at the same time as the Grand Slam of Darts. So Adams doesn't play that and instead beats a few guys like he did last night and gets built up as a superhero for dodging the big boys.

That is the most ridiculous thing I think I've ever read in my life. The world masters wasn't played near the same time as the grandslam. Months apart this year. Scott Waites was in both, as was Ted Hankey.

Martin Adams granted only had to play 3 games to Connie Finnans 200000000 to reach the final but he didn't beat nobody's at all. He beat Scott Waites, Tony O'Shea and Martin Atkins in 2008 and in 2009 he beat Robbie Green, Tony O'Shea, Gino Vos and Magnus Carius.

Masters only clashed with the GSOD once.

Jesus, that's tragic. Adams wasn't much better all the same. He probably had a few stiff ones to stave off the nerves but they had the opposite effect.

they said on the late bbc2 program that he was already on a flight back to Oz. I would probably be the same. so embarrasing for him

I think last nights fleet adams game has summed up the BDO its an absolute shambles run by a man living in the dark ages .And with players who wouldnt get there game on a monday night pub team.Its time for a serious shake up this is live to millions every night on tv and has now become the laughing stock of sport.And people want darts in the olympics imagine the players been brought in for random drugs test the machine would blow up with the amount of alcohal some of them take before matches.

Aidric

Adams & George were interviewed this afternoon on the game and both of 'em were breaking their balls at Fleet's performance.
