    Joe win that PL night in Rotterdam I mentioned.

    He beat MVG to one single Bradfordian standing up and cheering while fearing the whole arena was about to give me a hiding :joy:

    I'm fairness though, those around me knew I was cheering Joe on all night and even shook my hand at the end so it was all good humoured thankfully.

    I've been all over watching the Darts and off to Berlin next month for the PL. Should be a good do if most of the arseholes don't decide to throw their beer about for the last hour like everywhere in Britain and Dublin.

    Roughly £17 for a 2 pint pot and bellends are throwing them all around the arenas? I just don't get it.

    If anyone is interested though, Rotterdam is a great place for the darts and if you enjoy watching get yourself over there. Absolutely loved the City centre and atmosphere around the place.

    Lol, no idea why they do it, always seems to be that element there! I'll definitely try the Rotterdam experience at some point, cheers

    Yes he is a nice bloke isn't he. I was in the Drum Winder on Ivegate last year with my lad and my mate, Joe walked in with his missus, his agent and a few other friends. We got talking to them and they were really decent folk and very down to earth, his wife was a good laugh and they even bought us a round of drinks!

    He seems to change his car fairly regularly.
    Personalised plate of “Joe” something on his Range Rover at the moment

    Isn’t it scott waites? Or should I say Scotty too hotty **so funny. He is from brighouse I think so Harold club would make sense. I live just down the road in Oakenshaw

    but no they definitely weren’t there when I saw them. It was September and they came in for a few then moved on again, they actually went up to Yates’ cos we went in there later and saw them from a distance, but then they moved on again. Maybe they thought we were stalking them by that point lol

    Correct.
    For a supposed darts fan I’m not very good at this;)
    Completely forgot the WC Final even though he beat Humphries in an earlier round and they mentioned revenge about a thousand times.

    Smith is doing nothing at the moment.

    He was back to his old ways of head shaking and looking disinterested in the last two masters events.
    Should have lost to the local bloke in Bahrain and was well beat by the Dutch kid last weekend.

    He’s looked completely lost in the last few tournaments.
    Maybe needs to change his darts mid match a bit more.

    He's thrown them all away apart from a single set apparently. Also threw his old trophies in the bin in an attempt of a 'new start'.

    The top 4 automatic qualifiers for the Premier League are as of the end of the Worlds so Wright was outside that. He was one of the 4 picks, he'll have been picked due to his name and winning the European Championships last year. He's currently got £140,000 on Ross Smith in 17th. He'll likely be ok in the top 16 for now, the issue will come from July onwards when he's defending most of his £240k from 2022. Unless he has a really good year this probably is his last year in the Premier League.
    Noppert will struggle to be picked unless he has a really good year as he's not a big gname and not a crowd favourite, his game is good but a bit boring. It's similar to why Humphries has never been picked.

    Jockey
    Minion
    Where’s Wally

    Or are you going for the full amount of ridicule and wearing a city shirt?
