stand up if you love the darts!

Post by creamolafoam »

World matchplay is currently on our telly from blackpool & as ever, is going down a storm. Been their & to premier lge matches in glasgow, & have to say its a brilliant night out. Plenty of tournaments on tv throughout the yr to keep all us darts fans happy as well.
Personal favourite is the current world champ, & from these shores as well, gary anderson. Sadly couldn't make it down this yr due to work commitments but will catch up as much as I can on sky.
O gary gary, gary gary gary gary anderson!!

Love the darts. Been to the premier league in Glasgow a few times really didn't enjoy it just felt like a nedfest I was just waiting for it to kick off. Haven't been since it moved to the hydro. Went to the premier league in Dublin last year and it was a totally different atmosphere a brilliant night.

Haven't been to any of the big live events as such, but Iove watching them on the telly/internet etc.

Usually get behind all the Scots, including Gary. I also like to see Robert (the thorn) Thornton doing well as he's a local lad and very likeable too.

Here's a utube clip from a very special match a couple of years ago.

Blackpool has never been a good tournament for Thornton. His win on Saturday night was his 1st ever at the winter gardens and obviously he took a bit of a doing off chizzy last night.

These things happen to the best of us bonzo and I'm still a big fan of 'The Thorn' even if he suffers a humping noo and then.

Don't get me wrong I'm a big fan as well and when he's on his game there's no one better on double top.

Aye bonzo you're right. Think that's Robert's favourite double.

So after snakebite got knocked out by Lewis in last nights classic that just leaves Gary flying the flag for Scotland. Tonight he plays Steve Beaton in the quarters hopefully a comfortable win.

That was a lot closer than it should have been, Beaton rolled back the years 16-13 to Gary. Bring on Taylor.

As a person, taylor has no class whatsoever. Put three darts in his hand though, well that's a different matter altogether. Outstanding performance it has to be said.
I will still be rooting for mgv in final though :)
