    I think he’s superb but regardless whether you hate him or not he’s not as bad as Lafferty or Halliday. Jesus Christ.

    Hating Huns just comes with part of the territory. Darts players should not be hated, but he’s just that * arrogant man and in your face.

    He is a great player but I take comfort in knowing the chances of him breaking Taylor’s record is slim, at best.

    The standard might not be as good, but the crowd really are so much better at the Lakeside. It is great to watch darts with the sound on!

    There is literally nothing better about the BDO, including the crowd.

    Council darts. Not even worth watching.

    The crowd is a million times better! They actually have an interest in the * thing! Nobody singing idiotic chants with no relevance, everybody showing the players and the event a bit of respect. The other thing is an embarrassment.

    The other thing is professional darts. The BDO is a bunch of sub par alkies watched by old guys draped in gold chains, sovereign rings and wearing tartan slippers.

    And? My point is, those * who go to the Ally Pally are an embarrassment and ruin what should be a great event. A bunch of absolute Neanderthals.

    Ruin it in what respect? If you’re in the crowd and going to the darts to watch the fine sport of darts then aye but from the telly all they do is generate an atmosphere.

    I struggle to watch it because of them, or if I do I turn the sound off. I know others who do likewise. I would love to go to a World Championship session at some point, unfortunately they put me well off. Maybe you think shouting 'boring, boring tables' over and over again is creating an atmosphere. I think it is a sign of mental incapacity.

    Big Gurney reacts to Price’s winding up, * knew it was going to happen at one point :56:

    Scotland 3-1 Ireland

    Great tournament for Ireland, beat England and Holland on the way to the final, the only previous winners over the last 8 years.
    Keep an eye out for Steve Lennon, he has potential to be a pler.
