Re: Martin Adams, an all-time great?
If this was a poll for top 10 all time personalities in darts, then Bobby George and Ted Hankey would get in. Whilst your opinion is as valid as anybody else’s, I don’t think you would see either of those players anywhere near a top 10 listing for greatest players. Hankey could possibly get in the top 20 at a push.

Bobby George’s inclusion was even worse in my opinion.
