Winner should come from the MVG v Dobey match I think. Dobey looks the only guy in decent enough form to give MVG a match.
MVG is the player on form, but Price, Dimi and Smith are certainly all capable of beating him. I wouldn't read too much into today's scrappy matches.

Does feel like this year's worlds has been lower quality than recent ones. High on drama, but low on big averages. Kind of like the footie world cup.

Price in big trouble, but have to wonder how long Clemens can keep up this scoring.

Hmmm interesting move by Price, is it not kind of cheating though?

I rate that from Price. Why not block out the drunk idiots when there’s hundreds of thousands of pounds on the line?

I actually don't mind it, hilarious though and shows the crowd is getting to him. He is also a massive cnut too.

Darts was randomly on the TV over Christmas. A champion getting beaten by a nobody or something.

Struck me that whilst I have little to no interest in the actual sport, the whole atmosphere and vibe around darts is very appealing

Atmosphere is beer swilling louts.
Not for me

Why is Price that disliked? I've never seen him come across too badly in interviews. I always thought players like Taylor, Wade, Anderson and Lewis were worse.

Clemens wins the final set 3-0 & the match 5-1

Price was horrific. Thoroughly deserved win for Clemens.

Price checked with the PDC the other day and they said the ear defenders were fine, it’s been in an interview.

He has to accept that as a British player, to get the reception he does and for the crowd to favour a German over him there must be a reason, and that reason is his ridiculous over the top reactions on stage over the years.

The crowd don’t like it and they’ve voted with their voices.

Because it's worked for him...?
Has it? His record behind closed doors is better than in front of a crowd if i’m not mistaken and clearly it’s bothering him if he gets out a headset.

So if MVG wins his QF, is this the first time we will have had four different nationalities in the SF?
