KNOB OF THE WEEK

Last week I awarded KotW to Peter Wright for his performances, and this week he played 2 games and lost both, one in the meaningless Premier League and on Friday night where he was given to nobody's surprise the main slot in the evening, he then lost after missing match darts to Mickey Mansell  who averaged a miserable 87.

Last week I also spoke of Wade who gave it all mouth about how he would return to the top 10 this year, and 3 months later since making that claim he has dropped 3 more further places, and again in the first round of the Euro tour he faced off against a player far below him in the ranking who is closing in on him in the OoM and in the race for the Matchplay. I was not surprised he lost, in fact I suspect many people would have fancied Edhouse to win when you factor in the form of both players, but Wade averaged a meagre 86. Perhaps if he spent less time promoting CBD products  across twitter and concentrated on his game  he might start winning games and possibly convince himself he is able to get back in the top 10. There is no shame is losing,and  age, tiredness , lack of motivation etc might play a part, but after making claims how you will be back in the top 10 and then get actually worse, makes you look a complete knob.

If Wade keeps losing first round, he will not be automatically in the euro tours, and once he has to start qualifying it will be even harder, and once he loses his Matchplay spot, along with the Grand Prix etc, he will be lucky to stay in the top 32 let alone get back in the top 20


THE GLORIFIED NON RANKING INVITATIONAL EXBO

Obviously I did not watch the glorified, non ranking invitational exbo for the clique of Twat Porter, why would I, I watched the football instead, and this weeks darts highlight would be the Euro tour. I started watching the highlights package on youtube  Friday evening before the Euro tour started and saw that Bellyboy is actually skinnier now than the obese chav kebab guzzler, even if Bellyboys head is still gigantic. Bellyboy is fast making Littler his own personal whipping boy, as he beat him yet again and for the 4th time in this meaningless event. Will be curious to see how it plays out in a comp that actually matters, then my landline rang, and by the time I got back the youtube highlights were over, and I could not be bothered to go back such was little I cared plus the evening session of the euro tour started.

 I actually have seen people claim the Premier League is important because the winner gets over quarter of a million, as if somehow the non ranking prize fund a player pockets should be of importance to me. Phil Taylor made a fortune from exbos for over 2 decades and still charges big money for exbos, are we suppose to believe this matters too ?
The Premier League, World Series, World Cup , are good pay days for those involved but why would or should I care about a players non ranking payday if it has no effect on rankings or who qualifies for majors ?

As I have always said I prefer proper ranking darts, variety of players, afternoon and evening sessions of darts etc. I know some people like the Premier League, its just watching the same 8 over and over for months on end, no variety, trying to entertain hordes of simpleminded drunk scum whilst the prick Mardle rabbits on thinking his self deprecation act is hilarious. Sadly it is a necessary evil and it is needed, as the revenue it creates helps fund the tour for the year. Whilst I have reached the point where it simply holds no interest, good luck to those that enjoy it, I wish I could.

 EURO TOURS

Last weeks Euro tour was superb and posted this after its completion last Sunday

I know Dan Dawson is obsessed with certain players and places far too much emphasis on average as to close competitive game, but there was something for everyone. Price hit an average of 115, Stutters Aspinall had an average of 113, Dobey an 111, Schindler a 105,  and Menzies, Bunting, Heta, Piereczko, Edhouse, Smudger, Noppert, Slevin, Gotthardt and Bellyboy all recorded a average over a ton.  Bellyboy and Edhouse was a superb watch with Bellyboy hitting 8 maximums and losing in a last leg decider to Edhouse taking out a 160. The main story was Price who has dominated this event in recent years going for yet another title, whilst the home favourite Schindler who was superb all weekend  both made their way to the final.

Okay the little teutonic spacehopper went a bit overboard with the faggy tears, but it was a glorious result, German darts needed it too. The Germans to their credit pack out the venues and in terms of respect, they generally show more respect to the players, and behave far better than their British counterparts like those scumbags at the Premier League who do not give 2 fucks about the game and use the darts as a front to some piss up and an excuse to behave like animals. Of course it also did not stop the little Welsh moaning prick Price from finding fault with the crowd as per usual.

Then hardly surprising seeing as the biggest things he has ever won in the game were in empty arena during covid. I like watching Price but he is a sore loser, and I once said show me a good loser and I will show you a loser, I prefer a player to be upset or annoyed when they lose, it shows they care, but there are limits to how much and too what they complain about. If its not he crowd, its the temperature, or a breeze, its always something.  


I was delighted for Schindler and only fitting he be higher ranked than Marshmallow man Clemens who in my opinion the greatest choker in the game with a tour card.

Earlier tonight Schindler started in the first round against the dangerous Gian van Veen who dumped out Barney in the last 2 euro tours, and Schindler won with an average of almost 109.
Edhouse was in fine form again , and a belated happy birthday Ritchie, who follows me on twitter.
I cannot watch a Callan Rydz game as all my attention is focused on that ridiculous comb over.
I hope Perez loses his tour card, by fuck he is slow and boring, I won't miss him
Cullen was abysmal
Roetczsch and Barney started superb with 4 ton plus checkouts in the first 4 legs

The obese kebab guzzling Luke Fatter like got a handy draw again, imagine my surprise, and since the obese little cunt  usually does not get up before the the crack of noon , imagine again my surprise this obviously one sided match was given an evening slot.Thankfully for the walking heart attack he did not have to waddle about on the oche for long as he won 6-0 against a player averaging 33 points less than him, and he could fuck off  and sit on his hole for another 24 hours.

On the topic of the lazy cunt , Littler last week made a list of the 30 influential Europeans in sports under the age of 30. I had to laugh at this, a morbidly rotund chav cunt vaping at 16, living on kebabs, who hauls his enormous obese arse out of bed so he can sit on his hole to play video games is in a list that is entitled "sports"

MvG  who used to boast how people feared him, clearly  is reeling from the beatings littler has put on him recently, and said this week of the Forbes list  "he hasn’t won anything yet. If people haven’t won anything yet, should they be getting into Forbes".

MvG is positively seething  and annoyed of the attention kebab guzzler is getting, as well as MvG not understanding what influential means. We were told Pinocchio was influential for getting women involved in the game, and suspect the article was implying Littler was influential in drawing a younger audience, and viewing figures for the PDC has backed that up. MvG's  remarks how he has won nothing of note or how he hasn’t won anything yet matters not. After all what retarded cunt actually believes Littler and sports go hand in hand or ever be in the same sentence  ? MvG comes out of this looking petty, and unlike other players who have won nothing of note like Chizzy, I suspect its only a matter of time before Littler wins a proper ranking tv event. I doubt it will take him over a decade like it did Bellyboy he hasn’t won anything yet. If people haven’t won anything yet, should they be getting into Forbes providing the vaping bone idle lazy fast food guzzling cunt does not get a banger before that.


Anyhow, if this weekends action is half as good as last weekends it will be 2 glorious days of darts.
