Leighton Bennett

Was there bollox. The BDO could have picked him as one of their picks and chose not to, which is fair enough.

I think it was actually the PDC that wouldn't let him in cuz he was deemed too young to compete in a PDC event with the minimum age to compete in one of their events being 16. I'm actually happy he wasn't allowed in cuz he's an overhyped dickhead of a kid with a shut attitude.

I cant see any of that happening myself

Do you not think LB will not go to Q school ?

Maybe he will but I meant more your speculation after that

Wasn’t there talk of trying to get him in the grand slam at age 14 ?
If he gets a tour card, there will be a lot of scrutiny on him.

Talk from the pdc of getting hin in the gsod?

I wasn’t suggesting it was the PDC. The article does state he was touted to be picked. It seems only his age stopped him.
I am sure this was discussed on this forum before?

Point is that being touted by the BDO is meaningless, and goes no way to prove that the PDC/sky would hype him as you think they would

Cant wait for next months Leighton Bennett thread.

[Gidra]

Should we guess now is thread starter Leighton Bennett or his lover?

[mad jock]

Love to see him play Anderson on stage, we could hear the retirement speech again..

He just loves mushrooms, and mental patients

I didn’t realise this was a poll on Leighton Bennett’s popularity.

With the hype he has had, if he were to get a tour card at 16 years old, you and others are naive if you think they wouldn’t big him up.

[Keyz180]

Kid is a cunt. That Rab bloke has stopped rimming him as much as much as I can see. That shows he knows the writing is on the wall for the kid

"Will be good to watch the meltdown here should Bennett get a card"

[sennafan24]

I’m still not sure what he would be expected to achieve at 17 ?

You tell me:

Will he get a tour card next year? No doubt the focus will be on him next Q school like Barney this year.
I will say he will get a tour card and the focus on him will be immense.

Why would he get the same focus as barney ?

In darting circles he would. If he goes to Q school next year, he will be the player people are talking about. If he got a tour card you can bet your bottom dollar that his games at the U.K. open would be televised and he would be on the main stage no matter who he played.
If he managed to beat a big named player you can imagine that Sky would give him the same treatment as they did Fallon. If the World Series events are brought back, it wouldn’t surprise me if he got an invite to one.

I recall us discussing this about the same time last year. I think we concluded that he would probably bomb, and was definitely a shitwipe.

Well played Emu and Rands.
