KNOB OF THE WEEK
Peter Manley works for the PDPA, a parasitic cancer upon players who take 2% of every penny earned by every player in the PDC, At the next worlds championships the winner alone of the event has to cough up 20k to these vulture cunts who do nothing for the players, and to make it even worse, these cunts take in tens upon tens of thousands each year on the backbone, work and sweat of the players, and its not like a trade union where it is optional. In fact in 2026 they will take in three quarters of a millions quid. Now you have that fat cunt Manley whose job in the PDPA is to listen to the complaints of the players he is paid to represent, moaning the players moan too much. That's your job you rotund parasitic cunt. The mountain of withered up protoplasm has zero self awareness to even be aware he is moaning about players moaning, the players he is being paid to represent.. His speech could have been written by Twat Porter such was the level of sucking up.
What do the PDPA actually do ? Florian Hempel, the German tea towel wearing player summed it up this week in a podcast when he said about the PDPA “None of us 128 Tour Card holders actually know what they do,......If Joe Cullen, who’s been in the game for 15 years, doesn’t know what they do—then I certainly don’t either.”
He followed that up with
“Former players who seem to have landed a post-career role, just so they don’t need to find other work. At least, that’s how it feels.Jamie Caven just sits behind a laptop typing things in. He comes around once a year to talk to us, but it’s never clear what it's about—and it’s never much.”
What Hempel said about Manley
“Peter Manley once scolded me for posting something on Twitter that he thought was inappropriate. It was about a situation involving Mike de Decker. And I thought to myself—Peter Manley, the biggest bully darts has ever seen, is telling me what I can and can’t post online. The irony was rich,”
Hempel's comments were a follow up to Joe Cullen who did an interview about 2 weeks ago giving his opinion on the useless PDPA. As long as Manley and the rest of the parasite money grabbing useless pricks get their money eh ? Maybe Manley will report Hempel to the DRA Nazi Party so they can rape the player of more money, seeing as they are as bad , since Manley is such a snowflake.
THE GLORIFIED INVITATION EXBO ROADSHOW FINAL.
For months upon months were were subjected to the same players over an over in a group setting for it all to come down to just one night with 3 matches. I think if you are going to run a group all year, then finals night with the top 4 players should be a one off group where all 4 players play in the night, for example player A plays B, A plays C, A plays, D, B plays C, B plays D, and C plays D. That way to get 6 games in the final night as opposed to 3, since most PL nights had 7 matches and if one player wins all 3 he wins, if a couple of players win 2 games, then let it go down to leg difference, but having month upon month for 3 short matches only underlines how utterly meaningless the previous months were.
Last Thursday night was the first and only night of the entire PL that I watched live and in its entirety, and even with all the hype, quality averages, the huge crowd, big presentation, it still could not hide that this is all just one invitational non ranking exbo. Do not get me wrong, it was great seeing Littler not win and upset the PDC & Sky TV who were waiting to bombard social media with their usual bullshit. Price busting 100 was the start of his downfall after he was on top against Littler, whilst Humphries was doing enough to keep Stutters at bay whilst comms told us over and over how Asp is a fighter for the millionth time this year alone, as he drops down the rankings, since his performances in actual ranking events which matter more are worse than last year.
In the end even though my preferences of Humphries or Price came to fruition, it means nothing because the event meant nothing, neither does the upcoming world Series, which again is another invitational non ranking exbo for the friends of Twat Porter where more deserving players worthy of a pay day get overlooked and downright ignored. The World Cup means fuckall, again non ranking, and its a truly sad state of affairs when we enter the 6th month of the year and the only ranking televised "premier events" we got in those 6 months were the UK Open and the recently over hyped Masters which each lasted just a weekend and were no better than a euro tour. The saddest part are the complete attention whores who next November before the World champs starts, the pinnacle of the game, start their threads and posts about the 2026 PL as if it held priority over and ranking event let alone the worlds. Thank fuck its over and done for another year.
There was not a single mention that on Thursday night at the O2 in London it was also 88 years to the day of the first ever televised darts, which was back on Saturday 29 May 1937, which was shown on the BBC's London Television from Alexandra Palace, the current home of the PDC's world championships
EURO TOUR #7 DUTCH DARTS MASTERS.
The main stories on the Saturday were Dobey losing to Gurney, Dirk taking out huge finishes including a 170 against Wade, O'Connor reaching the Sunday as a replacement player, MvG withdrawing, Krusty averaging a mere 82 against the match fixing cunt Nijman. Humphries winning a last leg decider against Menzies in a game with 13 maximums and the 2 Germans of Springer and Pikachu beating Bunting and Rock.
On the Sunday, Humpries raped Bellyboy, Magpie won again making the most of his late call up, Clayton averaging just 89 somehow got past Smudger, Dirk fucked it against the Match fixer, and Germany's #1 Schindler lost out to Springer and Pikachu beat Gurney.
In the final session, Humphries beat Magpie, Clayton averaged 106 dumping Noppert averaging 107, The scruffy window cleaner jobbed to the match fixer, Springer beat Pikachu. In the semis Clayton beat Humphries in a quality affair, and was delighted to see Springer, who averaged 103 dump out the Match fixer. Sadly for Springer Clayton was too strong in the final.
Of the 46 games over a third (16)went to a last leg dicer and another 8 games went 10 legs. There were 14 averages over a ton and 11 over 99. Springer making the final made him the 7th german to reach a pro tour/ euro tour final. I was delighted no dutch cunt reached the final as the dutch crowd were a disgrace all weekend with their whistling against any player who was not Dutch.
RANKINGS.
Claytons win saw him move up to World #5. Despite Wade's loss he moved up to #8 due to those around him not defending what the had to defend. The biggest rise was Springer, who jumped 17 places to #76. Bellyboy at world #20 is now over £5k form a Matchplay spot, Edhouse over £8k outside. Ratajski just outside the places likes at £3.25k behind.
EURO TOUR #8
Out - Humphries, van Gerwen and Cross, with them being replaced by Razma, O'Connor, Campbell.
The afternoon session was fucking grim. Mansell sadly beat Magpie, Campbell averaging 82 beat Soutar in a dour match. Wattimena, Edhouse, Pilgrim and Gilding got through with ease and in the final game the match fixing cunt dumped out Dolan.
The evening session had more talking points, Cullen yet again jobbing, this time to Bradley Brooks. Dirk who got flukey last week against Wade not missing a double lost 6-1 averaging 80 to Nico Springer. Barney and Harryson was a decent watch and whilst Barney missed a slew of doubles, the Swede deserved the win. Menzies came from 4-1 down to beat Huybrechts, and Joyce was averaging over 102 and 5-1 up but mised match darts before finally falling over the line 6-3.
Springer who jumped 15 places last weekend jumped another 3 spots to #73 with his win on Friday night, with countryman Wening up to #74. Ratajski's failure to qualify saw him drop outside the world 32 and damaged his chances for the Matchplay. Barney's defeat sees him drop to the last position for a Matchplay spot and could be out of a Matchplay spot if Belly boy reaches the semi final or Edhouse reaches the final.
