Why would he retire when he still has probably another 5 years of undeserved Premier League, World Series and Grand Slam invites to come?bullseye wrote:Pretty shit from Barney...but we have become accustomed to his poor averages and hopeless finishing power.

Re: 2018 World Series of Darts
On a related note - is van Barneveld now the last remaining relevant link to pre-Hearn/non-Hearn darts? Taylor retired, Adams' form gone to pieces (probably for good), and the rest are either also-rans like Beaton or guys like Anderson who won stuff in the BDO but aren't identified with it any longer.
Anyway, there's still money to be made with RvB, but I wouldn't be surprised if a small part of Barry Hearn will savour the moment when he retires, putting the final nail into that era.

Re: 2018 World Series of Darts
Other than cadby I don't know the other qualifiers.
Can't remember a mvg v cadby game before.
Need to widen the stage.

I watched it last year but really don't care.
That said mvg v cadby would be worth watching.

Agreed. Sunday session last week was the most boring PDC session in years.Father Rout wrote:As much as this is great for the development of the game I can't get interested at all
Table seats for Sunday are 100 AUD by the way. Will be surprised if they get near selling out.
