Been catching the afternoon repeats, Barney still looks good, Andy Fordham was very impressive as was Richie Davies (think that’s his name - should know it really being welsh :rolleyes: ) Havent caught any of Hankeys games so far.
Going down the pub to watch the final on the big projector telly - its going to be a good one - but what a turn up, both my finalist predictions now gone - Barney and Count Hankey. I hope the final is as good or better than some of the matches so far.
I’ve just seen a match (BBC2) for the final between Andy Fordham and Barneveld (a Dutch guy). It is my first match of Darts I’ve really followed but what a match it was! Barney had a great start but the Viking trew some incredible gameshots and finally won it !!
P.S. Now I know what terms like Doubletop en bounceout means;)
As a member of team VT_Darts I really need the change my name into gameshot or game-on…
I’ve seen better games to be fair, both players had their moments though and my fave won so I’m a happy camper!
I know DT’s been up the pub for this one, don’t think we’ll be seeing him too early at work tomorrow :cheers:
ahhhh the only game (I know of) where the world final is held in a big pub… more sports should be like this [/B]
Your right in that both players have played better. Wrong in that I never went to the pub to watch it as I am too knackered from going swimming with the kids. :rolleyes:
Entertaining game - and nice to see a “new” name on the trophy
Still I wonder whether King will return next year - he didn’t seem too happy with his performance, hopefully that was a knee jerk reaction and he will be back.
Anyone for a trip to Andy’s new pub “The Rose” ??? Going to be one hell of a week in there :cheers:

Tis good to see someone new on the metalwork… good to see such a nice bloke win it too! Where was he from again? I could take a trip to his pub
as for mervin, he’s always struck me as a bit stroppy… it could’ve been a knee-jerk, and he was prolly annoyed cos he played like a donkey… I mean, I could’ve lost 6 consecutive legs to Andy
