I prefer to think of it as civilized. Especially compared to those drunk morons that attend PDC events. They couldn't give a fuck about darts- they just want to get wasted and sing irrelevant songs that, to me, totally disrespect the players.
The Wolf has been silenced early this year
Gary "Viz face" Robson is gone & all.
But! Deta Hedman is still there.
Can't quite credit that John Walton's win was 15 years ago.
Think Scott Waites is the only former World Champ left in it.
A pity that Trina Gulliver is drawn against Lisa Ashton in only the quarter-finals.
^Scott Mitchell the defending champion is still in it... Just!
Scott Waites leg away from defeat against Glen Durrant
Well he was! Comes back to win 5-4

D'oh!
Durrant v Waites would have been a good final... glad Waites took it, though
How can PDC players go from being good to very bad! Can't believe that they can loose their touch that quickly-
Remember these;
Colin Lloyd
Mark Dudbridge
Roland Schloten
Kirk Shepherd
Peter Manley
All except Kirk Shepherd were class back in the day!!
the Waites match was a good one best one ive watched on the bdo
Mitchell bit the dust last night, too.
Gulliver v Hedman in the Women's Final today
Waites walloped Hughes 6-1
Can't believe the Adams-Nixon final was 9 years ago. Sad to learn that Phil Nixon is dead (though I suspect I've heard this before, and forgotten it). It surprises me the number of former big BDO names who didn't go to the PDC and thus presumably sank into obscurity.
Well done to Trina Gulliver, 10-time world champion now!
Should be a good Men's Final too
