Best wishes to him Darts wouldn't be the same without himn.
A bit late to say this but Gerwyn Price has pulled out of the hole Premier League after a positive covid test and is replaced by James Wade.
Well this just ruins the hole Premier League for me i mean it's a strange line up but now Price is out it makes it even more shitter.
Glen Durrant's absolutely terrible run has seen him lose his first 7 games without a single win or draw and become the first defending Premier League Champion to be eliminated in the first league phase he didn't even make it to the second league phase never mind the play offs.
Glen Durrant becomes the first player to get eliminated losing all 9 of his league games and he was the defending champion coming into this tournament really feel for the guy.
He couldn't even beat fellow relegated player Rob Cross losing 7-5 which was also his most legs he won 5 but it's better then winning just 1,2 or 3 legs.
Durrants form has dropped big time since having covid hopefully can rediscover his form in the next few months or could be a horrible 2021 for him
Aside of that been a real mix up of results in the premier league so far long may it continue

As i say i really looking forward to this and i have never understood why they have never done a Seniors Championship when they have always done everything old in Snooker so this is great it's great to finally see it happening.
That is a very impressive cast list.
Should make for good and in parts quite nostalgic viewing.
I wish Darts would have it's own thread on the sports boards i think it deserves to have one , that way i could create threads for it's main tournaments like Snookered does on Snooker.
Michael Van Gerwen has confirmed his spot as league leader for the 8th time out of 9 seasons.
Here is the draw for the play offs.
Michael Van Gerwen (1) Vs Jonny Clayton (4)
Jose De Sousa (2) Vs Nathan Aspinall (3)
Numbers indicate there position in the league.
Jonny Clayton wins his first Premier League title and second major title defeating Jose De Sousa 11-5 in the second Premier League final in a row between two debutants , it is incredible Clayton made it to the play offs never mind won it he had to win or draw against Van Den Bergh just to make it to the play offs.
