KNOB OF THE WEEK
This week it goes to Bellyboy who is now in his second year of doing absolutely nothing, since he had a lucky few months in his decade plus long career. This week Aspinall who was bottom of the Premier League without a single win in the event, managed a measley 87 average and still was enough to beat Bellyboy. Has any player who has previously own the World championships managed to be as bad afterwards ?
PLAYERS CHAMPIONSHIPS
Event 3 & 4 took place earlier in the week and Ryan Searle continued his great run with his 3rd consecutive final on the Monday, whilst the #1 seed Chizzy suffered a third consecutive first round loss.earle beat his practice partner Ando in the final, and in just 3 floor events earned enough to move him up 2 places to world #18. Ando lost with an average of 108, and broke a couple of records that day, he became the quickest to ever reach 10 ton plus averages in the shortest number of games, and hit 41 maximums in the event, smashing the previous record of 35. Callan Rydz was 5-0 down when I put on darts connect, and the bald fucker played superb afterwards and won 6-5 against gurney, In at least 2 legs he went 140,140,140 and 81 checkout.
In event 4, Wade dumped out Littler before yet again jobbing to a nobody, it was so bad I was convinced Wade threw the game so he could fuck off early. Lennon and De Decker had a quality game. Lennon averaged 110 to De Deckers 109 and the legs were 11 11 12 15 12 15 13 15 11 & 13. Chizz finally managed to get past the first round, MvG was raped 6 zip. Dobey reached the final and took on a player he never beat in Damon Cabbage Heta. obey went 3-0 up and then loss 7 legs on the trot , before losing his 6 game on the trot to Heta. Christian Perez who spent a year sorting a visa reached the semi final
The honeymoon period for the fat cunt Littler seems to be coming to and end. He had to survive match darts in numerous games, not just in the players championships, like the Seven he survived against Keane Barry in PC#3, and other games, he again only qualified for one of the 2 Euro tour events. The bread and butter floor comps are no walk in the park, no matter how good you are.
The upcoming UK Open looks wide open
MvG who is performing decent in the non ranking Premier League that means nothing but doing fuckall in ranking events.
Gerwyn Price is only at his best in empty arenas, and the cold of Butlins will hurt the wannabe tough guy
As for Bellyboy, if you exclude a period of 3 months, the other 11 years and 9 months he spent in the PDC he has been a petulant child and choker.
Chizzy will never win anything on TV
Wade has bottle but the consistency of custard
Krusty looks well past his best and hi time at the top over
Ando can be brilliant until something trivial upsets the delicate flower
Luke Fatter is untested, and showing a lot weakness on the pro tour and ranking events off the stage already
Scumphries is a manic depressive and his game will always be suspect to someone upsetting him
DEVELOPMENT TOUR
The Development tour kicked off again on Friday, and despite numerous claims by DC hating mushrooms who have cited year upon year how the "Bubble will burst", entries for the Dev tour reached a record high, of 365.
Beau Greaves turned up, but went out in the last 128, and the first event was won by Danny Jansen., n event 2 Beau Greaves made the quarter finals, and Keane Barry beat Gian van Veen.in the final.I believe tour card holders should not be allowed to enter as they have the main PDC to contend with and gives them an unfair advantage in qualifying for Ally Pally, retaining a tour card etc.
However the biggest talking points coming from the first day of t Dev tour was the antis of certain players.
Seems one player was fined for drunk & disorderly, another fined for damage to a toilet by punching a hole in the wall, and another fined for pissing in a cigarette bin, which was seen on the cctv.
Remind me again how these are athletes in a sport.
PREMIER LEAGUE
By christ I am already bore senseless by it, after watching mumbles Smith and Stutters Aspinall trying to out choke themselves, we got Cross who did enough to beat Humphries, Wright showed signs of improvement but inevitably lost, and Price lost to MvG, by which point I was done. Price is the only person I can tolerate watching in the PL, and maybe Cross. There was no way on gods green fucking earth was I going to watch 2 obese cunts in MvG and Luke Fatter with their excess mounds of fat waddle about on the oche whilst being told this is "sport". I find both great players, but if I have to watch 2 people I find visually repulsive, it would be in a proper ranking event, not some meaningless exbo.
MODUS SUPER SERIES
I enjoyed what I saw of this weeks event the double start made or a nice change an some decent players involved, I will always give them credit if its good, but next weeks line up is fucking grim, a who's who of complete jobbers, and unlike this weeks event, there is nothing that would make me want to tune in.
PDC EURO TOUR
Richard Veenstra made it 3 from 3 in qualification for euro tours but missed out ET#4. Luke Fatter again qualified for one of the events, only 2 players managed to qualify or both events, in Callan Rydz & Richie Edhouse, but the main news was after the recent changes to qualification, it appears the PDC have now made it a rule that those 32 who automatically qualify all have to win a game to earn the money. A decision which had to be made and a good one.
Lastly, each Luke has gone a different route
