And played really well against MvG in 2018.

I think his results from 2017 and earlier are pretty irrelevant, he's a much better player than he was then.

No no no no Anderson is shite because he usually bombed at Lakeside, MvG never won a game on the Lakeside stage, or something!!!

Uncle Barry on the Grand Slam:

"It won't surprise you to know its on our next board meeting; to review the Grand Slam selection process," Hearn exclusively told the Darts Show podcast.

"The problems that the BDO have got have been well monitored, they are inevitably having a tough time but I think there is still a way forward for them but they have to alter their attitude and make it clear that they're concentrating on amateur darts.

"If you're going to try and compare like with like then they're always going to come out second best and that's not going to do them any good with TV, sponsors, and players.

"You can't be stuck in yesterday because the world moves on."

Read it earlier, i don't think the BDO will exist the next time the Grand Slam comes around, going by the Masters shambles, the 02 should be the final nail in the coffin..

At last Uncle Barry is seeing this clusterfuck for what it is. Hope he reaches the right conclusion and fucks the BDO off

Aye, but was there really much difference between Wolfie circa 2002-2006 and Wolfie circa 2007-2011?

I suggest not. The only difference was that Barney had left and the field had thinned out overall.

Haven’t the PDC mushrooms been trotting out this line that the BDO is finished, last ever World Professional Darts Championship etc since the late 90s?

Gerwen was very cocky yesterday ahead of today’s GS Semis. I think that made Price try even harder
I
I was thinking almost the same thing.
12 months ago Id have happily smashed Price's smug face in - I cant believe Im now actually rooting for this steroid filled guy.
Something has changed, cant put my finger on it, but, on his day he can now beat anyone......and win the Worlds.

As for Krusty though....
No

NO

NO
Yes Price really is doing the business and is true Box Office. I am putting a healthy wager on him to win the Worlds.
Yes Wright you are right,no chance😀
