That's not biting back that's opening the floodgates.
Now that he's admitted it gets to him and puts him off they'll do it twice as bad.
He should never have mentioned the En-gur-lund chants as that's all he's going to hear along with booing from now on.

Doubt he's looking forward to his reception in Wembley at the end of the month.

shot himself in the foot big time

and whilst he clealry has a point about crowd behaviour at times - he would have been better off not stoking the fire ahead of a big night for him in london!

Then there's Bolton, Blackpool etc etc

he will certainly be a target thats for sure

with the way he is though i can see him just "giving up" if it gets too bad the total opposite of a ted hankey for example and the way he reacted

i can see ando shrugging his shoulders smiling and just not bothering once it gets to a certain point if hes become affected by it and he is losing

the real issue though is the old chestnut of what are the pdc going to do to get better order for the players?

I think that one's already gone south mate. Too many times the likes of Taylor et all have said the fans pay their money they can do what they like. Now they are!

Don't want to piss off the english, as I understand based on numerous international football games they are hooligans aren't they?

sounds like he was just in a bit of a mood last week. had a bit of a pop at barney aswell.

Those comments will come back to haunt him. Bad move.

unless phil mentions it on the microphone, i doubt they'll notice because i doubt the casual PL fan can read.

It was in the Sun though wasn't it? paper/rag for knuckle draggers.

unless the page 3 girl said it in her "interview" we're fine!

seriously though he usually handles the boos pretty well, last week was hopefullly an exception.

I actually don't get why he gets the stick. He's a real decent bloke in real life and is no different on the TV

Had he won last week his comments would've been completely different about the crowd

Of course we are assuming that he actually said that, remember its the sun, he was probably asked as he left the stage "did the crowd put you off at all?" He said yes and hey Ho a full story.

Him and webby need to treat it as an exhibition and as long as the chants and shouts are not carried over to the proper tournaments then I have no issue

Should be renamed Gando’s BAD back
