KNOB OF THE WEEK

The award this week goes to Matt Porter, just like it did this time last year as he continued to maintain the ridiculous criteria for the Grand Slam of Darts that his predecessor Barry Hearn set.

In the Grand Slam 3 of the 4 semi finalists from 2 years ago are not involved, including the actual winner, and yes you can blame Jose De Sousa, James Wade and dimitri van den Bergh for their own failings after fucking up in the qualifier and failing to get through, the issue is and has always been for me they should never have been in a qualifier to begin with.
Any player that win a players championship that consists of 128 players has to be more worthy that some player who only reaches the last 8 in a depleted field.
As I wrote last year
 
Secondly, he has taken over from Uncle Barry and kept the same stupid qualification plan for a qualifier.
For example, Boris Krcmar rocked up to the qualifier today, played just 3 games in a depleted field to reach a last 8 and he gets a Grand Slam spot.
Fall In Sheerluck, pastes the snot out of useless deluded munters like Mem Martin and her averages in the 30s, and she gets a spot in the slam.
Yet Ryan Searle, wins a full comp, no last 8 bullshit, he wins it outright, in a field of 128, where the elite players in the world take part beat them all and had to win SEVEN games but he is not worthy of a Slam spot. Yes I know this was always the stupid criteria, one which earned Barry Hearn the award every year, and for also inviting the bdo begging scum, but Matt Porter as boss had the opportunity to make sure the best players were in the slam and he failed. Maybe Searle should have identified as a Munter, he has the hair and stubble like the other munters, and entered and won  the munter Series,, since those useless cunts get preferential treatment. Is the idea of the Grand Slam not to showcase the best players ? Just you wait til Sky TV tell us the slam is full of "the best in the world" whilst comp winners and top 16 players will be sitting on their arse at home.

Today will see Wade, Dolan, Adrian Lewis, Danny Jansen, Jim Williams , all players that won ranked competitions this year sat at home, along with players like Portuguese  Winstanley and Barbara the twink whilst we get to watch the likes of Richie Edhouse  who looks like Gail Platt, Luke Woodhouse who is so boring he makes Justin Pipe charismatic and the fat lump Ted Evetts who will always be remembered for defecating himself line on tv to Pinocchio
In what universe are those players an improvement  on the competition ?
Even Dan the refugee Dawson  has the right idea, but check out the response by the stupid cunt Murphy


The cunt is so eager to suck up to the munters he seems to either genuinely believe some munter series is on a par with a full players champs, or he knows but chooses to ignore  it just so he can suck up. He really is a full blown ass kissing cunt.
However as bad as the munters are, as pathetic as most of those munters are, and putting aside his sucking up, they might be shit titles, but they won something, even having them involved you can honestly claim they were winners, you cannot say the same about the qualifiers.
In the end the competition is weaker without the top tem players, former winner , finalist and semi finalists.

As for  Jose De Sousa he has dropped 10 places to #16 and will possibly fall further, James Wade is still in fifth but most likely drop  down by the time this comp is over and Dimitri is down to  #15 and he too at risk of dropping further.
 
 
This day last week Wade won a PDC ranking competition
Simon Shitlock has not won a PDC ranking competition in over 5 years

Shitlock is in the slam and Wade is not. This says it all

THE MASTERS TROPHY
John O Shea has returned the Masters Trophy, imagine my surprise to hear certain people were issuing threats ?

Off to watch this lesser comp now whilst suffering a hangover.......
Lastly always good to see that this blog was the most popular topic on a "darts forum2 this week where a thread on this blog was busier than their Grand slam, World Masters and their WSDT old fart shit, then not a real surprise I guess. Still i am sure any typos or spelling mistakes will be enough for those who claim to never read this will be enough for them to moan about.
