Weird nervy, topsy-turvy match and so many missed doubles.
Darts
- Thread starter StuCol
- Start date
Price had a shocking concluding two legs to the 7th set there.
Hope Wright can just see this through and not feck it up.
No handshake or did I miss it?
Didn't see it, but commentator did say earlier they are mates. Christ 8 match darts. MVG won't be so forgiving.
I was about to ask that, sure they didn’t though
Saw Wright shake hands with the officials, Price wasn’t ready but assumed they would get around to it.
Dave Clarke just confirmed no handshake.

Might be his year like Cross 2 years ago had match darts missed against him.
I hate Price, so happy he lost.
Same but Wright is my 2nd most disliked player
Me too though I quite liked the idea of MVG absolutely pasting him in the final.
Is Aspinall a United fan?
All 5 sets gone against the throw but I think this one might be the fatal one for Asp, but Asp has had darts to win 4 of them
Think so, I know Joe Cullen is been spotted celebrating this season
Yes
Hope so, although I take it you don't!
Both semis were a bit lacklustre and no tonne plus averages is a big surprise.
Ok so the BDO have released a letter to the players saying that the promised prize money cannot be honoured and begging them to still turn up and play.
My sources are telling me also that Fallon Sherrock has just pulled out of the event.

Price and Wright have made up today both apologised for different things.
Jeez.

It goes on to confirm Fallon has pulled out.
I don't get why the BDO is perceived as toxic though. Given its seemingly constant financial difficulties, I don't get why it doesn't strike some deal with the PDC to be officially recognised, and funded, as the grass roots organisation.
Gerwyn Price apparently with drug testers till early am.
Why???
Seriously why?

It was Wright who was with them.
Would imagine it’s testing for beta blockers etc.
Highly tuned athletes like darts players shouldn't need beta blockers
They don't tend to look like Bill Werbeniuk these days, but wouldn't be surprised if the odd one has taken beta blockers, given the money and pressure these days.Didn’t need hindsight to know moving from Lakeside was a stupid idea.
Who decided to have the final on the same time as Arsenal v United. Christ on a bike. Hope MVG does the job in an hour.
Yeah, that’s rubbish timing
Unfortunately the Jacklins are fecking clueless.
Who are we backing here?
I hope Wright.
Don't like MVG.
And what the feck is the story with the pom pom dancing girls ?
Are we not past this shite ?

Interesting start to this. Wright seems calm and confident
Poor atmosphere too.
Subdued.
MVG looks sick. Hes playing shite

MVG missed too many darts at key times
Wow Peter Wright.
Superb
Superb
Deffo MVG looks ill. Pasty as feck
Bravehart well done
Wright does always speak well wins or loses
Picked him to win before the start.
Not a bad choice a few weeks ago.
Wow just watched it on delay. Brilliant performance from Wright- held it together amazingly, even if MVG was out of sorts (albeit still averaged over 100).
When Wright scraped through early doors and against Humphries and Price his ton plus checkouts just knew it was going to be his time.
Chizzy is the unlucky one to miss out
