Darts

He was playing quicker because he was playing a Woman respecting her because she is a Woman normally there is bad sportsmanship to put the players off but where he was playing a Woman he showed good sportsmanship which is unlike him but yeah i agree nerves did play a part.

I am fed up of the commentaries saying how slow Mensur is he is still slow but he is a lot quicker but not as quick as he was yesterday against Fallon.

MvG got through and meets Stephen "Crybaby" Bunting in the next round.

But James "lovely wife" Wade and Danny "who knows?" Noppert got beat. Wade lost to Steve "Tom Selleck" Beaton, supposedly into the last 16 for the first time in 16 years.

Beaton is also a former BD World champion if I remember rightly. If Fallon continues her run when would she catch/meet up with MVG?

Oh Gary gary... Brilliant comeback by Anderson to beat Searle 4-3 after being 3-1 down

Who's been the coolest player on the oche so far and which checkout you rate the best so far guys?

Fallon Sherrock is out but what a great tournament she had doing Women's darts proud she lost 4-2 against Chris Dobey.

I'm sure it will open up opportunities for other women to try it, Fallon performed far better than many expected and got further than many expected, she should be proud of what she has achieved.

Anderson out

Depending which Bunting comes to play today his match with MVG could be very interesting or a damp squid

Well done to Sherrock, a valiant tournament and should do her no end of good.

^what was your first initial thought in your head when they first mooted the idea of including women in thr main championship?

And do we actually know who will be running the Lakeside championship yet? I haven't been able to find anything on that if the BDO have been barred from organising it.
