    Agreed danganabu.

    My young lad is starting to watch the darts and use the board in the house and he asked me why were they booing. I had to think before I answered it!

    I'm obviously biased as I'm probably older than most on here but the 80's was the best decade for hair styles, fashion, music and darts. :)

    You're also right on the money front but after watching Barneys performance last night maybe some of them have become too comfortable!

    Barney is only in it because if the Dutch crowds and viewing figures


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,601 ✭✭✭Carpentry


    Really annoying and frustrating when "that" Barney turns up which is a lot more frequently in recent years.

    Looks like he's completely lost interest

    Good night of darts tonight the scoring in all the games has been unbelievable. Glad to see wright back playing well

    2 losses for MVG in PL. Both to the bottom player. Funny game at times

    Unlucky Gary

    Record broken for most ton plus out shots in one night I'd say?

    Smith probably won't make the playoffs now he will be livid


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,993 ✭✭✭boomdocker


    After all the mediocrity of the previous rounds that was a bit of a tonic

    Pity Ando didn't hit that D12 would have made a right night of it


  • Registered Users Posts: 641 ✭✭✭jeff bingham


    Fecking sky box never recorded Wednesday nights darts for some reason. Barney and van gerwin both nervous towards the end. Good win for Barney there

    Michael Smith just beat Gary Anderson to play MVG in the premier league final.
    10-6 played well and didn't crack...way MVG played against Cross earlier Smith might have a shot at beating him...though I think MVG was dragged down by how poor Cross was...

    Fairly boring stuff so far with a subdued atmosphere.

    Hopefully we'll get a decent final

    I agree regarding the crowd, they don't seem up for it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 957 ✭✭✭Officer999


    Seems to be a lot of empty seats.

    Yeh agree with that.
    Listening to Smith interview after, he just is glad to be in a final...dont know if that will relax him to play well or the opposite.
    Here's hoping for a half decent match cos this year's PL has been pretty brutal throughout.


  • Registered Users Posts: 641 ✭✭✭jeff bingham


    Just home for the final. Hope Smith can play like he is capable of but think the van gerwen factor will play on his head. Hope not though because when he's throwing like he can he's something to watch


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,462 ✭✭✭Bob Harris


    Well done Smith, I just hope he sticks with MvG and it's not a bit of a procession.
    Be quick whatever happens.

    Smith not playing bad but finding himself 3-0 down. I can't see anything but an MVG win.


  • Registered Users Posts: 641 ✭✭✭jeff bingham


    Both such quick throwers great for the viewer


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,462 ✭✭✭Bob Harris


    Smith needs a break soon.


  • Registered Users Posts: 957 ✭✭✭Officer999


    This is stunning darts by MVG


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,787 ✭✭✭✭paulie21


    Phenomenal by MVG


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,462 ✭✭✭Bob Harris


    MvG in the zone. Smiths fast throwing just plays into his hands.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,299 ✭✭✭JenovaProject


    Just no sticking with MVG when he's carrying on like this...unreal darts!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 614 ✭✭✭TheQuietBeatle


    Smith playing as game is over already. Deflated.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,464 ✭✭✭Ultimate Seduction
