    Really happy for Bunting. Fully deserved it and the final consisted of the only 2 decent players all weekend

    Was it just me or do you think the entire weekend atmosphere seemed really flat? The standard from most players, right up to & including the semi finals, was piss poor on the whole

    The last 8 was poor and the semi finals were embarrassingly one sided.
    He’s threatened to win a PDC event for a while but always seem to bottle it a bit.

    I was also pleased for him
    Seems a decent bloke who doesn’t sulk when he gets beat.

    What’s your fancy dress tonight @NorthernMonkey@NorthernMonkey ?

    Jockey
    Minion
    Where’s Wally

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

    MVG finding a way to win again last night.
    Should have been 5-2 down to Humphries in the final but let off and as usual goes on to win 6-5.

    He's still the main man to beat isn't he. Always dangerous

    Still has that aura about him.
    Far from unbeatable but as you say still very dangerous when he’s on it.

    Humphries absolutely flying at the moment.

    Nobody getting anywhere near his levels.

    Hope your 4/1 bet comes good tonight @NorthernMonkey@NorthernMonkey
    He’s 7/4 tonight.

    Can’t see past Humphries.

    I have just given all my darts and dartboard to my grandson, who is eighteen and playing the game now.

    In my day I played in my local, The Malt Kiln on Idle Road, and captained the *@?$ and Bottle in the 1970's. On my day a decent player, even if I say so myself.

    I played in a great team in Dubai for several years during the 80's and 90's, and made some lifelong Arab friends at the Red Lion pub on Abu Dhabi Road, playing darts (one of whom beat Eric Bristow).

    I have hit "three in a bed" in every double and treble, just not the bull, two darts in bull and one in twenty-five many times.

    I love the game, just nowhere to put the board anymore (extended kitchen into half the garage).

    Anyway I'm proud to pass on all my memories of darts to my grandson.

    £4 is not to be sniffed at.

    The hate Littler gets from grown men on social media is obscene.
