    God the camera work is terrible watching it now on BBC two, first dart is in the bed well before we see it.

    Still when its for free I ain't complaining sky is a killer to be honest.

    That Colin Murray is a plank of a man taking the piss of Anastacia domo(can't spell her name haha)

    The girl has ten times the talent he will ever have.Pity they didn't show him the door completely when he got axed from match of the day.

    Have to agree, tries to be funny but it falls flat.

    He's a complete embarrassment tbh. I don't even know what he was attempting with Anastasia but he made a fool of himself anyway. I've been hoping he'd get axed but year on year he keeps getting the gig. :rolleyes:

    On a separate note there's been some quality throwing between Montgomery and Blackwell. Rooting for Blackwell but Montgomery seems to have the beating of him.

    Couple of ton plus finishes and Blackwell excruciatingly close to a 170 checkout. Asada - Dawson is pretty ordinary, though. Asada hasn't a clue what he's doing unfortunately; dropping darts every few throws and a 73 average.

    Hilariously dire stuff between Asada and Dawson on BBC2 at the moment. Most pub players would probably beat Asada.

    Toss or I mean Ross Montgomery won the 1st set with a 77avg, pretty poor in fairness. It did improve over the next few sets but was still not great.

    Feeling ill

    During Winstanley(Mrs)/Prins match the camera for some reason decided to zoom right in on 1 punter in the crowd, dressed in his full union jack suit who was elbow deep in his own nose! Dirty beast! Caught snat handed

    Bobby George if he had the strength and energy must be awfully tempted to chuck Colin Murray over that balcony with his silly awful jibes about his jewellery,he just said there his jewellery interferes with the power in the room ffs

    Hayden has such a strange throwing action, you would wonder how he could possibly be accurate with it.

    Can't stand him. Cringe any time I hear him.
    In 1 of my previous jobs(call centre) some fella told me that I sounded like him(well your man off match of the day 2!), I think my less than positive response caught him a bit off guard lol.


    To go back to an earlier point about BDO having a kind of 80s theme....WTFs going on with players choice of walk on music or do they even have a choice? theres a young fella on now Rhys Hayden who came onto grease lightening?!?!? That may have even been 70s. I understand older players with 70s/80s music because they've had it since it was new but dont understand why this kid would have something so old.

    The choice of a good walk on song can be vital, well maybe not so much in BDO but people were talking of Vincent VD Voort getting into premier league because he is apparently a crowd pleaser.....to me he has a catchy walk on tune that fits with his name and people are just singing the tune...nothing particularly to do with him.

    Think its a nickname he's called grease lightning over his speed of play and hairstyle but v.poor song to walk onto ,I won't slate the music anyways it's never going to have the same buzz as Pdc no walk on girls etc,it's good crack reading Eric Bristows and Barry Hearns tweets about BDO,tony green barely acknowledged andersons win last night oh he won did he ,hate his blasted attitude and always trying sly digs at pdc crowds ,always a respectful crowd here at the Lakeside said it 50 times since Saturday getting monotonous now

    Is it? :eek: I was thinking it could only possibly be some nickname connection but then I seen he had "the heart of darts"(:rolleyes:) on his shirt and thought couldn't be.

    Always gonna be people of both sides(PDC/BDO) having digs at eachother and Chris Mason somewhere inbetween having digs at anyone he considers too successful lol thought it was funny last night that Bristow asked Bobby George how he knew Anderson won and Bobby replied he was watching it instead of the bdo :D

    Tony Green's been repeating the same monotonous lines for decades now. He's very hard to listen to. I wish someone would wire his chair to the mains and give him the odd wee shock now n then just to get him sounding a bit more enthusiastic lol


    Was anyone watching the BDO while the PDC final was finishing last night? Did the crowd know, did they react or chant for Anderson or anything? I can't help but think some BDO fans still see Anderson as one of theirs and taking some sort of moral victory from last night :D probably wrong

    Jaysus, that was a tedious leg. Widmayer is awful on the doubles, not even close with most of them.

    Said there's been a significant amount of money put on the kid overnight earlier one of the commentators too he only lives up the road 20min Hayden too maybe local support..
    Some of the finishing here is cat Widmayer hit the edge of the board twice on double 10,looking good for 2-1 now if the yank can hold throw

    As I said in post #45, Greeny is well past his prime and so I think it's time for him to retire.

    Won't have to listen to any more grease lightening anyway lol

    I hear Tony green's gonna shock the world by mixing it up in the next game, he's gonna go mental and say "Excellent crowd, they're giving it the best of order....this knowledgeable darts crowd"


    Anyone know what ya call the postman pat lookalike interviewer? He's on snooker aswell, rob I think his name might be. What a dull interview he just conducted with Wilson

    Is that the over dressed slim guy? It's Rob Walker. He's awful. I always thought he looked ridiculous at the darts in a 3 piece suit.
