The not Rogg's Twatter Watch

[Robert Ross]

How did the fuckwits reach that conclusion?
Let me guess though, Durrants, waites and Mitchells are worthy though?

When Bristow was winding up Durrant on twitter about how he wasn't good enough for the PDC, some of the Fanatics went off saying that his 5 titles were won in crap fields and they are worthless. Fickle bunch.

Fields containing all the best players in the world for Bristows and none of the best players in the world for Durrants yet they reach the opposite conclusion.

Yes but he had the nerve to have a swipe at their current champion and Bristow took the PDC coin so his titles are now worthless, thems the rules.

Sound conclusion.

Durrant's feathers have been ruffled

Seriously? They must like showing off their ignorance. Bristow won 5 World Championships beating all the big names, and despite old fashioned darts and boards Bristow sometimes threw averages in the high 90s over long distances. How worthless!

Bristow second greatest player of all time, is Duzza even the best player in Middlesbrough?

No.

Colin Osborne the best player ever from boro, one of the few select players on earth to win a title in the pdc with prime taylor in the field

Beat Taylor in the final as well I think, mind you was the event on a par with the 1999 Scania Open?

I know some people like fanny darts would have you believe the scania open was the most prestigious event ever but it was no more than a players championship abroad...like the irish players champs before the grand prix.

The CLoD I will admit was no top major, but it was certainly a bigger comp than one of todays world series events, better than a players champs, probably better than a Euro tour win, worth more than a world cup win etc.

For a while it was my favorite comp after the world champs for a number of reasons, the live midweek darts during the day i could watch at work was a great thing for me

[PT13]

That was a very big win for Osborne. Beating Taylor 6-4 in legs in the final of the big internet tournament, a Taylor in arguably his greatest year ever. Taylor won 25 out of the 31 tournaments he played in during 2009, including every TV title except the Premier League.

Eric is spot on though, who in the BDO can chuck averages like that consistently...


No cunt.

[Justin Credible]

no one can chuck 100 consistently, nevermind 106 consistently

You're actually being kind as it's less than that..

[Mr. Saldaar]

Only started watching darts around 06/07; What I'd like to know is what the likes of Barney, Whitlock, Taylor, Klassen, etc were averaging before they made the move over......

Did the constant competition and standard of the PDC force them to raise their game in upwards of 95+ averages or were they already owning the BDO field with those numbers?

Hey Duzza you fucking bells palsy spacker, at least Brostows face is not trying to emigrate from his head, you hyper chromosomed shit cunt. Go see a candle maker, see if he can remould your molten features.

Raymond van Barneveld threw a Lakeside record average of 103.83 in 2004, beating Dennis Priestley's 102.63 from 1993. It still stands. He came over to the PDC in 2006 to challenge Phil Taylor, realizing that Taylor was better than him and that any hope of Barney being the best meant that he had to switch over.

Phil Taylor threw a 97.58 average in the 1992 World Championship final. That record still stands for the best average in a final of the Embassy/Lakeside tournament. Bristow's averages from the 1984 and 1985 World Championship finals (both 97.50) are second and third, and then Taylor fourth from 1990 at 97.47.

A record still standing after 25 years. Pressure of the Lakeshite stage must've been growing over the years.

Yes.

The pressure is now so unbearable that no player can hit a ton average in the entire fuckin tournament.

But on the other hand, because of the unbearable pressure, winning at lakeside is the most prestigious thing achievable in darts.

So have the fucking trebles.
Ludicrous that Taylor and Bristow still hold the records

[sennafan24]

Yeah, I was slightly surprised.

I could have sworn that Barney had surpassed a 97:50 average in a Lakeside final. However, after I checked, it seems he came close with a 97 average in 1998, and a 96:78 in 2005. Fordham also hit a 97 average in 2004.

Lakeside has clearly regressed over the past decade. There's a decent chance that Taylor and Brissy's records will continue to stand.
