Agreed. Dropped the mong persona he had a few years back. Smith could learn a thing or two from him.

Wouldn't actually suprise me if Humphries has chucked a chunk of his winnings into some in depth media training type stuff, speaks so much better than he used to
Getting older helps - he's what, almost 30? Plus having won previous few tournaments has helped. PDC will probably offer advice as well.

In many ways it reminded me of the Van Gerwen v Taylor final in 2013 where MvG was 4-2 up in sets and missed dart at D16 at 2-2 in that set which would have put him 5-2 up.

After that Taylor, just like Luke Humphries tonight, got stronger and stronger as match went on and from 4-2 down he won last 5 sets in a row.

Humphries seems like a decent guy and young Luke if he can keep his head right and feet in the ground could become an all time great but let's just see.
Van Gerwen in the 2013 World Championship final missed 2 darts for a 5-2 lead. At 2-1 to MvG in legs in that 7th set, MvG missed double 19 for a 158 outshot, and then missed a double 16 in the next leg for another 100+ outshot chance.

There are genuinely years where I'm like 'okay, hurry the fuck up and end Worlds, feed me Q-School'

This year wasn't one of them but I am right now

So Humphries has dominated darts all year and is world number 1 and MVG hasn't won the worlds now for 5yrs yet he will still probably be the false favourite with bookmakers again for the major events next year.

Probably sat in his Barbados beach front villa , watching on, having backed Littler at 250-1 in September after being behind the curtains during the pre filming at the ' Ally Pally mock up ' in Sky Studios.
Fair play to him. If only he could come on here after the event and brag to everyone.
Just for you my friend.
Nigel Cheeseman Blenkinsop here ( N C.B.) in person , greeting you from Barbados .
Shade cool here today , just watched my man Lukey clean up for me
Backed him at 16/1 for the Grand Prix and same price for this event and in a double , also lumped on him in the Players..
Littler was a Gay Sky plant , to replace Fallon and Rock.
Littler is a fake , they even took the Mickey by giving him that surname when he's a fatty .
Notice how they often use alliteration when naming these *stars
His real name is Nathan Slack and he's 24 . Was in a youth detention centre for 2 years for hacking Bank accounts online .
They pre filmed many of his earlier games .
How many times did I tell you Lemons about Brian Damage ( MVG) ? He was seriously ill , he got worse and now his stand in Billy , is the guy you see . They tried to fix his face but now he's got jaw and teeth issues .
Notice how they never show his ' Mrs' Brian Damages Mrs refused to go along with it .
I dragged Fatty Fatty Smith to a psychologist towards the end of last year and look what happened. I made a packet.
He decided he didn't need my help after that and now look at him .

I moved here properly mid 2023
I'm now an advisor to the Barbados sports ministry .
My utube got taken down after I forecast the first 3 in the correct order in the 2022 Grand National , I was investigated . Government agents called and advised me to be careful.
I took up healing through prayer and saved several lives , mainly on local TV and radio.
I moved briefly to Lowestoft where I opened a homeless centre but they shut it down having tracked me down and said it was a money laundering front.
In the end I came here.

I was laughing at the idiots who banned me , they were talking about going to their shift at the warehouse , some people just like being poor , it's a form of Stockholm syndrome.
I showed them the light and they threw a big black blanket over it .
They will ban me again now as they Fear my Methods.

I thank you for your faith and loyalty. Halloween Jack you are a very discerning man.
If you want to contact me Gmail jefflamp76@gmail.com The guy who played him in ' The Office ' was a friend of mine from when I ran a large Acting Agency, sadly he passed away recently.
I won't reply to anyone else from here . You'll have to pass some security questions. I'll ask you a few about my past which only somebody who's followed me may know.
Why don't you start a rival darts forum and I'd pop in with info , just on the Big tournaments.
I've got so much money I don't need the aggravation anymore , I'm actually thinking of buying Costa Rica .
Wonder how the brain deads on here will react to reading a dose of N.C.B its rare in life that you're in the presence of genius .

Regards for now N.C B.

Impossible to comprehend the question, let alone measure it.

That it was perhaps the best Worlds since Taylor quit is a more digestible topic.

I watch it for the nostalgia and a good laugh.

As Bobby George stated about one game "it's rubbish, but I enjoyed it".

Probably yes. 2021 and 2022 aren't even in contention because of behind closed doors and Covid expulsions respectively.

Me? Instead of watching darts I am going to read a book.

At the weekend? Some nice outdoor walks.
I'll see you in the book thread
It's a book about Niki Lauda :)
I have a signed letter from Niki.
Sweet.

I'm pretty clueless about his F1 career in the 70s. Hence why I bought the book.
His rivalry with James Hunt helped grow F1 as a sport worldwide.
