Scott Marsh v Sebastian Bialecki to open proceedings.

Not inconceivable the first Ally Pally game will be worse.

A Saturday night session featuring Kovacs, Richardson and Paula Jacklin?

Yeah, fuck that.

I'm excited for Kovacs game as well as Turner v Hyde could be good.

Also looking forward to Bo Selecta playing in a morbid way.

Droopy Richardson can get to fuck

The first round will probably be almost all dire.

It'll probably only be watchable in the later rounds.

I hope Kovacs loses purely because of the hype surrounding him on this forum.

I tend to root against players that I believe to be overhyped/receive undue attention.

It's just words on a forum though, nothing to do with the player. Kovacs gets mentioned a lot here because he's Hungarian, simple as that. I do not think anyone is making him out to be a much better player than he is. We all know reality but we are rooting for him to achieve something, which could help Hungarian darts a lot.

Still, I'm sick of reading about him. Hence why I hope he loses.

It's quite simple.

It's no different to SAFC with Sherrock, etc.

For the WDF I think playing before Ally Pally is a good move.

How?

SAFC gets irritated by Sky's focus on Sherrock. Which he finds undue.

I get annoyed by some posters on TDF's focus on Kovacs. Which I find undue.

They've definitely made an effort to boost sales on Monday and Tuesday with the line-ups.

Because they are both not responsible for the situation at all. I don't think the extent of disliking these players is valid

I don't dislike Kovacs. I just hope he loses in the hope the attention he receives diminishes.

I'm actually neutral towards Fallon. I don't care one way or another how successful she is.
