Bob Anderson told us years back that Adams made a business decision, he wasn't wrong. I've said many times that Duzza is far better off where he is as the standard has never been lower on that side of the divide. Pick up the £100k for as long as it's availableRandall wrote:Durrant is the new Adams.
In fact, compared to Durrant some of Adams would titles almost look genuine
Interesting point... I mean you'd surely struggle to equate anyone in the amateur ranks today to the prime or near prime versions of players who would have been Spineless' rivals after Barney left. Whoever they bloody were, can't think now. Help.Randall wrote:Durrant is the new Adams.

Whitlock, Webster, Anderson, Chisnall are a few that spring to mind.Rogg wrote:Interesting point...

Don't forget Hankey and a host of others that moved across.

Certainly better than anything durrant has faced.
Seems Ludicrous including a bottling cunt like Chizzy mind.

Turns out Garry Thompson is a former world prolol quarter-finalist. Not just once either, twice! 2010 and 2011.
Averaged over 80 in one of his wins, too, fair play.
(75.51) Garry Thompson 3 V 2 Ross Mcnoloyalty (76.71)
(85.80) Garry Thompson 4 V 1 Martin McCloskey (83.40)
(95.79) Martin Adams 5 V 2 Garry Thompson (87.12)
(78.06) Garry Thompson 3 V 1 Arno Merk (70.02)
(79.95) Garry Thompson 4 V 2 Alan Norris (78.12)
(87.78) Jan Dekker 5 V 4 Garry Thompson (86.67)

The standard at Lakeshite seriously dropped off around 2010/2011, and has never recovered. It was clearly inferior to the PDC before that period, but it hadn't completely gone to the dogs.

The notion that he was better than Taylor in the early 00's is bollocks. But he was a top 10 player throughout most of the 2000's, and occasionally cracked the top 5.

2003-2005 by his own standards Taylor was pretty indifferent but part still had to beat him.sennafan24 wrote:Aye, Part's victory over Taylor to win the 2003 PDC Worlds is superior to any win Hankey ever had.
Hankey's semi-final with Mason was very good, but it's not quite the same as beating the greatest darts player ever in a world final is it? Especially considering Taylor averaged a shade under a ton in that final.
