2023 European Championship - Dortmund 26th-29th October

Humph.

"This is probably one of the toughest defeats of my career. There is no other player who wants to put on that England shirt more than me."

[Rogg]

Is aspinall OK?

Stockport losing will have hit him hard.

Just saw the 9 dart disaster
Can hardly let the 1st 1 go

That's pretty normal for him now. He's working through it and doing incredibly well tbf.

His crying face, everytime he missed a double, starts to become annoying

[thegentle]

Off you fuck Humphries

Will never make the World Cup now with 100k getting struck off next year

That £100k came in 4 out of 13 events last season though, he has every chance of making a big dent into that next season

[thegentle]

That game felt like an oddly important marathon struggle

Edhouse blew it early doors, he was way better over 11 legs in the scoring tbf

Razma is overranked and a massive fraud (see also Soutar and Kleermaker)

Razma and Kleermaker are key members of my Fraud list alongside Klaasen, Lauby and Tricole

I wouldn't say that either are over-ranked..

Madass cashed 110k last year, Kleermaker has averaged 50k for the past 2 years

Razma cashed well on the euro tour and made a couple of majors, fair play. But think this year he will get found out more. Only averaging 90 for the year according to the comms which isn’t great

He only cashed 18k in 2021 so he won't drop much in the rankings tbh..
He is actually in the top 32 in the Tour Card Race

Had a look at the provisional rankings, and it did surprise me a bit to see Razma up in the top 32 for both the Worlds and post-Worlds considering his form hasn't been as good as it was last season, but what surprised me more was that basically all of the players directly behind him were bang out of form, normally there is one at least player who charges up the table. A long time to go yet, but I don't think anyone will charge their way into the Worlds seeds as the highest player around there who you'd say is in any sort of form is Mike De Decker, and he's got quite a bit to make up

I swear Jimbob is actually aiming for just below the dotted line in all things.

I swear Jimbob is actually aiming for just below the dotted line in all things.

He's destined to be a nearly man.

[Dfc180]

I swear Jimbob is actually aiming for just below the dotted line in all things.

If he stopped withdrawing from events he would probably be well above that line

[thegentle]

I swear Jimbob is actually aiming for just below the dotted line in all things.

In fairness he is due to play at ET10 at Razma isn't

The lime rind for his new marmalade range won't grate itself.

Great couple of weeks for Cross. Under pressure for the World Cup spot he wins a pro tour and then picks up his first Euro Tour title, well deserved

One thing I will always give him credit for is he has huge bottle dosen't know when he is beaten.

I do think he's the most underrated or at least under appreciated players on tour. There's not many players out there who've won a Worlds and a Matchplay

I think a problem is that he completed darts so quickly with his glorious ruination of Pheel in a world final. He's still winning stage titles 5+ years later but they all feel a bit feeble when compared with his early work. This is not fair of course.

I think it's more that he's done a lot of nothing in between. He won the Matchplay _18 months_ _after_ he won the Worlds and nobody was expecting it and probably a lot of people have forgotten.
