Magnificent set of 1st round ties tonight, really looking forward to it.
Been very good so far.
Anderson pumped 10-1 by Cullen.
Just got round to watching the final, well done to Joe Cullen on a great win. His dad was getting on my thrupennies though.
Seniors darts on BT sport just now (and over the weekend). At the circus tavern, complete with the old darts theme tune as an intro.
Quality might be ropey but will give it a watch. Manley v Taylor the big grudge match
drat i forgot to put here that some hibs ST holder guy playing darts on some ITV? competition was going to play with his hibs top on, sorry i can't remember his name but his girlfriend/wife asked everyone on a fb hibs page a few weeks back to give him support
i can't even remember the dates but sure it was tonight/tomorrow maybe ? sorry not very clear :greengrin
yeah i know i just didn't want to start another darts thread, especially when i can't remember his name, i can't remember the tournament and i can't even remember the dates, i thought those that watch all darts tournaments would know which tournament was on ITV last night/tonight/tomorrow night :agree:
i'l have a wee sketch at a tv guide
found it, ITV4 tonight UK open, in fact it's on now, Henderson the scottish guy is playing just now
willie borland maybe ? east calder, anyway after missing 8 doubles he finally beats barney 6-5 :)
Willie Borland beats Barney 6-5 in a game that has everything you want to see in darts match. Big scores, great check outs and missed doubles. Barney left himself in the mad house and then hit a single one. Borland on his third go at 16, has a miss, single 8 and outed on double 4. Brilliant.
Anderson v MVG is the big one tonight.
10-8 to mvg. Once again, missed doubles costing Anderson.
Wade hits a 9 darter
Michael Smith also hits a 9
Wright emptied, his attempts at doubles cost him
Bully boy does Gezzy 10-7 . The crowd were all against the Welshman. Out of the tournament and lost the No.1 spot in the World.
Barry, O'Connor, Noppert and Smith in the semis. Pleasing to see Barry empty out Wade who seems to get more obnoxious every time he plays.
Smith v Noppert final.
Smith will never get a better chance at a TV title than that. An opponent well down the rankings with the entire crowd on his back throughout. Noppert still beat him averaging below 85.
You could see it coming from about six or seven legs out, Smith couldn't shake him and played nowhere near what he's capable of. That will do a fair amount of psychological damage to him I think - and the mental side of his game is poor already.
He appears to be like Chisnall and Jenkins before that in terms of chokes in a final.
Well done to Noppert though. He's a grafter and to win the last 2 legs takes some bottle.
I really felt for smith last night, you can see how badly he wants to win one of these titles and every time he loses one it gets that bit more difficult. He didn’t do a lot wrong last night, it was just that final leg that got away from him.
this guy, didn't catch his name though

Ryan Murray. Think he got a set from MVG in the 2021 world champs.
