I hope its a great final.

Nice to see bob excited for a darts match.

before the boys toe up to the oche, I should probably stretch out my typing finger so that it doesn't cramp up during the match.

c'mon cool hand!

ah, nice and limbered up now.

This. I hope its a tight game with lots of cracking darts

They are both going ro score like idiots
They can't help but not
It's going to come down to a dart at double here and there
Surely hump is likely to hit more under the pressure

8.15 away?

Looking forward to this. Think it'll be a spectacle one way or another, hopefully in the close fought nail biter sense.

Think Hump has to be the slight favourite although based on current form not a great deal between them. Have a hunch Littler may be the best opponent for Humphries as it's allowed him to fly under the radar somewhat. Not a huge amount of fan fare in becoming the new number 1 etc as focus has been on Littler. Just feel that may suit Humphries and reduce the pressure some.

my hand is really starting to sweat in my "humphries is # 1" gigantic-sized foam finger.
could take it off for a while.

yup.

I've changed my mind and gone for a Littler 7-5 win as i'll enjoy the game a lot more fully rooting for him

Evening all, am so excited to see this match, think Humphries wins 7 5 but if I'm wrong I'll be as happy as I've been since Taylor won the title in 2013 vs MVG, what a tournament, hopefully it's a final that will go down in darts folklore

Genuinely can't remember the last time a darts match was so anticipated.

The only crumb of downside I can envisage with darts' growing popularity would be a surge of arrogant wannabe fans who know 2 or 3 players swallowing up the core, dedicated fanbase

Darts Twitter has proven that hardcore fans can be just as insufferable.

A million Thorns and Jetze's are as bad as a million casuals.

Two Thorns and Jetze's are as bad as a million casuals.

Fixed!
