3 more seeds crash out yesterday including top 10 Chizzy and Cross. 14 seeds out before the last 32, a record since it moved to 96 players.

Three days away from the darts now, oh how will we fill the day?

Gurney beats Hempel by a chin.

Had that one in the pub last night. Gurney looks different, has he piled weight on?

He seems less stressed to me. Always been big. Just a lot more chilled.

Evans beat Chizzy in the game of the tournament so far. Superb viewing.

That was a great game. That Evans interview afterwards was very good too.

Rob Cross could be in trouble, he made a rude gesture to someone in the crowd coming off stage. Some tweets suggest it was towards Williams partner as she kept shouting!!

Probably, his chin looked bigger.

Another 9 darter in the first match back.

claret wizard · Post by **claret wizard** » Fri Dec 27, 2024 4:07 pm

9 darter, still get beat. Best mates Heta and Woodhouse. Woodhouse celebrated the 9 darter as much as Heta.

Sensational stuff yesterday. Price 3.0 up Vs Cullen who then won 3 sets of his own. If I've remembered correctly fom 2.2 in the decider there were 7 consecutive breaks of throw, one of which was a 170 for Cullen with Price sitting pretty on a double. Price won it in the end.

Darts WC has become my favourite sporting event of the year and it's not even close. I've took the bookies for several hundred quid whilst enjoying the action too.

It’s a magnificent event!

Safe passage for Humphries. DvdB to follow hopefully but he has a tough game against Rydz.

Just seen a couple of Rovers fans at the World Darts watching Doets v Ratajski.

Could someone tell the presenter that there is two t's in Littler?

karatekid · Post by **karatekid** » Sun Dec 29, 2024 10:00 pm

I only watch it for the blonde presenter in her unbuttoned jacket.

Peter Wright one set away from beating Luke Humphries.

burnmark · Post by **burnmark** » Sun Dec 29, 2024 11:02 pm

Humphries out.

He was completely off it tonight. So bad, but Wright was sensational. What a performance.

Never has the idiom “Trebles for show, doubles for dough” been truer.

Rydz marching on today as Rob Owen got on the wrong side of the Ally Pally crowd.

Bunting, MVG and Littler to progress tonight?

Bosscat · Post by **Bosscat** » Mon Dec 30, 2024 10:50 pm

Littler being taken to deciding set ... brilliant nip and tuck Darts tonight from both Littler and Joyce

Bosscat · Post by **Bosscat** » Mon Dec 30, 2024 10:58 pm

Littler takes final set averaging 111 wow

CrosspoolClarets · Post by **CrosspoolClarets** » Mon Dec 30, 2024 11:13 pm

Incredible guts by Littler under severe pressure on an average night for him, especially on the doubles. Bodes well for him.

claret wizard · Post by **claret wizard** » Thu Jan 02, 2025 8:29 pm

Semi Finals tonight. MVG and Littler to progress ?

jdrobbo · Post by **jdrobbo** » Thu Jan 02, 2025 9:15 pm

An absolute walk in the park for MvG

MVG for the championship for me.

jdrobbo · Post by **jdrobbo** » Thu Jan 02, 2025 10:52 pm

Littler destroys Bunting

MvG v Littler in the final

Lip · Post by **Lip** » Thu Jan 02, 2025 10:54 pm

Should be a cracking final..Hope Luke the Nuke can win it,but it won't be easy,MvG playing really well..Looking forward to it.

claret wizard · Post by **claret wizard** » Thu Jan 02, 2025 10:55 pm

That 84 to win set 6 was brutal. The last arrow was in the bull of the bull.

BurnleyFC · Post by **BurnleyFC** » Thu Jan 02, 2025 11:00 pm

Win or lose in the final (and I sincerely hope he wins), Littler is sensational.

He’s pure box office.

claretonthecoast1882 · Post by **claretonthecoast1882** » Fri Jan 03, 2025 8:37 am

Let's hope the final is better than last nights 1 sided affairs

TheOriginalLongsider · Post by **TheOriginalLongsider** » Fri Jan 03, 2025 7:46 pm

Bunting v Littler wasn’t one sided. Bunting played pretty well but Littler can finish better than anyone. First match was boring as hell though.

TheOriginalLongsider · Post by **TheOriginalLongsider** » Fri Jan 03, 2025 7:47 pm

Dobey was actually outscoring Van Gerwyn for a good while in that match

Come on, The Nuke!

Gp8419 · Post by **Gp8419** » Fri Jan 03, 2025 7:53 pm

Hoping for a good match -least mvg won’t be kissing ,cuddling and high fiving littler after every leg! Like asp and bunting! Mvg will want to smash him come on mvg.

Totally this. Felt like they both were beaten before walking on and their attitude confirmed it.

TheFamilyCat · Post by **TheFamilyCat** » Fri Jan 03, 2025 8:22 pm

MVG needs to raise his game to win this. 7-3 Littler.

Eagle Claret · Post by **Eagle Claret** » Fri Jan 03, 2025 8:32 pm

Come on MVG. We don't want a Manure supporter winning.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Fri Jan 03, 2025 8:52 pm

Littler three sets up.
Smashing it.

jrgbfc · Post by **jrgbfc** » Fri Jan 03, 2025 8:55 pm

Could be over very quickly this if MVG doesn't liven himself up a bit.

claret wizard · Post by **claret wizard** » Fri Jan 03, 2025 8:59 pm

MVG looks shell shocked. Only Humphries can compete with Littler currently.

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Fri Jan 03, 2025 9:01 pm

Neither of them are playing all that well but Littler is lethal with the doubles.

Commy · Post by **Commy** » Fri Jan 03, 2025 9:21 pm

Quality is going up now.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Fri Jan 03, 2025 9:23 pm

5-1
Going to take something special from MVG now.
