Best, has to be the Matchplay final. Worst was Mensur jobbing out to Ryan Searle. My next best/worst will take ages to fully summarise, so I'll leave it at this: Krzysztof Ratajski

Baxters descent into total PDC oblivion, a truly terrible time.

On the plus side, great to see Cadby having issues, he's just a thug from the land of the thieves.

Crowds, or the lack of crowds at the WDT and Winmau could fit into both
When you actually feel anger over a place like this it's time to get a life

Dimitri beating MVG and Anderson in the Germany World Series. His 9-darter at the Slam.
De Zwaan beating MVG twice on TV, getting to the Matchplay semis and winning a PC.
Hopp's Euro Tour win was delightful.

Price's QF, SF and Final win at the Slam.
Gurney winning the PC Finals.
The Smith-Wade WS Finals final.
The Chizzy-De Zwaan and Cullen-Anderson Matchplay night.

A lot of good.

Maybe he could have dragged Taylor down, we will never know.

PDC World Cup.
I have no memory at all of the event at this stage.
I assume Holland won but that's about it.

Ando Cullen match play semi final was brilliant.

Dartconnect a definite plus point for the year.
