    I'd have thought a Grinch outfit would be more appropriate for the likes of Mervyn King, not that I have any interest in seeing that

    Disappointing for Barry. Really poor first 2 sets by hi standard. He picked his game up then but left himself too much to do. Shame.

    Beaton was terrible. Very emotional stuff from Portela. Indian lad miles out of his depth.

    I think Wright wins this handily 3-0.

    Jaysus, didn't he get beaten early on a few years ago wearing a daft Christmas outfit?
    Looking good tonight though - the darts that is ;)

    I hope he doesn’t make a habit of coming on with more outlandish outfits, ok as a one off but I’d hate to see it happening regularly

    He’ll be out in one of Brendan Dolans shirts next!!!

    Ah god I've missed Wayne mardle. The man just talks sense. He's so measured. Every word out of his mouth is one of substance and weight. Breath of fresh air.

    I agree, there's no doubt in my mind that Wayne is up there with John Motson and Peter Alliss in the pantheon of great sports commentators.

    Portela gave an interview that was posted on live darts tv on youtube. His recently born daughter had serious health issues, wife suffering postnatal depression and how the pressure of it all was severly impacting him mentally

    Just watched it though I felt it was wrong at the time to ask him about it, his message at the end about seeking help and opening up to someone, and he wishes he did it sooner, was a very positive to anyone in a similar position.

    The crowd seating is like an exam hall, few times people were having the fun of old. I wonder how they will adjust the arena with no crowd

    I wonder would Snakebite dress up and act as goofy if he was playing MVG or Price

    Sedlacek beds a D7 when he had a dart at D16 for the match, and Joyce swoops in to take the last three legs to win it on the last leg decider.

    Scored very well, doubling was poor enough but he was usually so far ahead that it didn't matter. He never really looked threatened to be honest, only lost 3 legs

    Just seen the stats 88 avg despite 9 out 32 attempts at double. Sort out his doubles and he should give Guerny a game

    The way Gurney has been playing lately i'd imagine O Connor should win

    So Dobey comes from 0-2 down to win 3-2, and if Willie beats Gurney, that's what he's up against next. Fun.

    Gurney having a little fall from grace with him been on the afternoon billing . He would of been considered a top player in previous years

    He's been struggling this year, I'm surprised he won. Brilliant last two sets from him. Good viewing this afternoon even if I could only watch bits of it on the sly using my phone in work!

    I think Willie is favourite to beat Gurney, he needs to brush up on his doubles though.
