Darts thickest counters - One to keep an eye on
Jose De Sousa heads the table as he is a major winner.
Next is Soldier Gates. Lakeside and Ally Pally participant.
3rd is Matty Washbrook. An unknown outside his area to virtually all of the darting world.
For years I've kept my eye on Matty's progress from local lower league darts to taking him to comps. He's now a County "A" player. The one thing no single person can help him with is his maths.
Thick as pig shit after all these years yet this hasn't stopped his progress. Winning his latest super league match 3-0 with a whopping 96 average against baby Apache Jiwa.
On the same night Nigel Heydon beat the Chief Apache Prakash Jiwa in a mid 70's slug fest.

Re: Darts thickest counters - One to keep an eye on
One of my fondest memories of tournament darts was destroying Nigel Heydon at Allens Bar, Travelled there with Dave Honey and I drew Graham Hall first round and beat him 4-0, Despite this and a great performance all I could hear when warming up before Nigel Heydon was 6 or 7 people stood watching nearby saying Nigel was going to destroy me, Dave Honey was the only one who was saying I would batter Heydon...And I did....4-1, At 3-1 up I started the 5th leg 140-140, Nigel started 55 and 45 on his throw, He threw his 7th dart of the leg and it landed low in the 20, He looked at me then put his other 2 darts in his throwing hand and slammed them off the board, Refused to shake my hand after I won the leg and match with ease so got a mouthful from me after for his disgusting behaviour, The leg I lost was on my throw when I was 3-0 up and he started swearing and pacing about behind me, He started losing his shit when I went 2-0 up with a 121 finish and all I had to do from there was stay calm and keep them straight.Suspect Device wrote: ↑Sun Dec 04, 2022 6:03 pm Jose De Sousa heads the table as he is a major winner.

Its frightening how many players, particularly the younger ones are total dog turd at counting.

Re: Darts thickest counters - One to keep an eye on
Dave's post has made me cry...
...With laughter
How I wish for this to be true as I'd never disbelieve anything said on the internet.
Beating an opponent is something that happens in darts.
There's Jackonory, makebelief, and believing something that never actually happened to be true.
Let me see, I've known Nigel from playing darts since he was a teenager. Both of us played in the same Super league team, his county call up followed mine. I've lost count the amount of seasons we played together in the same local teams. Neither of us have never been trophy hunters and Nige still plays with his brothers and mates at the local club.
The time frame spans easily over 30 years and in all this time I've never known the big man to lose his rag, (throw darts away yes, I bollock him if he does that) let alone swear on the oche and most of all refuse to shake an opponents hand?!
Brilliant!
I cannot wait to see him tomorrow to simply ask about the events that must be true because why else would they have been posted?
This is why I started by saying please be true as it's totally out of Nige's character.
Either way I will enjoy listening to his version if indeed he can remember and have a right good laugh about it.
P.S. No one fucks with Honey. Top bloke and martial arts master.

Absolutely 100% true, It was after I moved into where I live now so 6 ish years ago? If you know Honey then ask him, He was there watching it as was John Fowler who was running the comp and the board we were on was right next to the control desk.Suspect Device wrote: ↑Sun Dec 04, 2022 8:12 pm Dave's post has made me cry...

Before that day I wouldn't have had Nigel down as the sort to behave in that way, I used to always have a chat with him at comps.

Re: Darts thickest counters - One to keep an eye on
Love these stories dave, mate.
All the names that get mentioned I seem to know, bar you. That puzzles me.
I posted this when I'd first signed up and joined in with these non playing piss takers.
Every dog has its day and every fucker has an off day. I will bollock the cunt for sure.
Cheers!

Last time I was playing in my local league (pre-Covid) a young kid was asked to chalk a game and pulled out his phone to use the calculator.

Hey buddy DBG,
I popped in to see Heydon tonight playing in a local league match. Got talking all sorts darts misadventures we'd been on which led nicely to asking how many times he had lost his head in a match. Did he ever swear during a match and did he ever walk off without shaking an opponents hand.
The answer he gave was quite different to what was said to have happened. It was all a bit inconclusive to me, but tying all the incidents together in a match seemed highly unlikely. Like I'd said, this is totally out of Nige's character.
This doesn't surprise me as he was in constant tournament grind when on the pro tour and a small comp situation like this has gone over his head without a second thought.
You said it happened, he's non the wiser. Shame, as I wanted an outcome. Call it a draw.
P.S. Who else you had a run in with?
Cheers!

I asked the question but never mentioned you or any individual by name. I don't even know what name you play under?
Nigel has no recollection of said events. I didn't dwell on it nor probe further as the stories and laughter rolled on...
Btw he played in Spag's tournament at Woesley castle on Saturday reaching the last 16 where his run ended 5-3 against Luke Woodhouse
