Darts

Just discovered ITV4 is showing the UK Open over the weekend

Tim Vine was rather jubilant in getting those doubles It perhaps was obvious that the whole week of shows was less about pushing Comic Relief, and more about telling everyone that Lee & Tim play darts a lot

Van Barneveld has just been wiped 9-1 by Peter Wright in the UK Open. He didn't really look interested. By contrast, Wright looked like he was on fire, literally, with his shocking orange mohican.

Phil Taylor has lost his QF match with an average of 108.5 and a checkout of 67%.
Peter Wright again, but the hair has turned green today. He has interesting looking flights, look like they are solid plastic.

Peter Wright beat Stephen Bunting 10-0 in 1st semi final

Van Gerwen had a tougher semi-final, I saw that.

Tim Vine picked the wrong time to become average. Darryl Fitton's last throw was 3 x triple 19's, which deserves some respect, really, & set up a good finish. But Mack was too good.

And next year is Sport Relief, so they can do it all over again (maybe)

What are the chances of Vine & Mack trying to qualify for Lakeside 2016 I wonder?

Seems Glasgow fans have been told to act like a BDO crowd at Premier League at the Hydro tonight if rules and restrictions printed for event are to be believed. Basically says no fun is allowed

Christ, how shocking was Fat Phil last night ?!? Abysmal. On this form he has no chance in the Premier League.
