Before you comment (DBG) no I wasnt dropped as they still wanted me to go on last when we were already 11-7 down but I declined.
We lost 14-7 so another bad night darts wise.

The spread was average at best.
More likely the case that they told you not to bother turning up and thought they had a full team then some other cunt didn't show so they then asked you to attend.
Dave speaking from personal experience there :roll:
Not unlikely.

We lost 14-7 but yours truly wins 2-1 in the singles including a 122 checkout.

Spread was awful.

Well played, I'd like to join a darts team at some point, but i'm so awful i can't bring myself to do it yet, I know people say it doesn't matter down the pub as everyone's crap but i don't wanna show my face until I learn to stop pulling darts aimed at 20 into 12...

Although I've only played darts pissed once down the pub and me and my mate battered these 2 fellas off the board in a double start match, maybe if i drink Dimi specials before I play at home it might make me play reasonably okay

My mate too.

Give it a go mate. It's going to be a steep learning curve either way, learning to play in that environment

Follow DBG's tips to become a successful player, what could possibly go wrong ?

Seriously, just have a go, enjoy yourself and you never know, those single 12's might turn into treble 12's then everyone's a winner.
It's unlikely that it will change your life forever so just go out and enjoy yourself.

We go again tonight...………………. then we play darts !!!

Away match at the pub that used to be my local many years ago and where I first played a league match, still a few people in there that I know.
Hope I can keep up the reasonable form from last week but that the team can win for once !!
Should be a good night but not expecting much from the spread, the quality seems to have dropped across the board since pre-covid days.

Time to start snubbing the footy card or whatever teams use to pay for the food, Once had a situation where without me knowing the rest of the team all said not to pay into the football card at a venue as half went towards food and the last time we played there we got served crisps and stale sandwiches, I was at work until 8pm and arrived at the venue 5 mins before the match was due to start and the bloke selling the footy card squares was next to me at the bar and I just chucked him £2 and said put me on any teams not taken....Team mates all giving it....'Why the fuck did you do that greeny' :D

Not seen a footy card post-lockdowns, think the landlords are just making a token effort as they're glad to have darts back and people drinking again, st least the pubs are still open which is a blessing.
