Hopefully, we will see some of the Irish players making it through to the final stages.

Fair play to BBC for showing this but I wish they would get rid of their red button!

Any Boards members in this?

vindaloo1

yep. looking forward to it.

hopefully one of the Irish lads will win out their groups, in this or the masters.

padr81

Finnan, Grey and McGowan could potentially do well in the masters, all have a decent draw. MCCloskey has a good draw for Lakeside too.

Carrickman

Lakeside quallifers on now, latest scores on link bellow:

Irish lads not doing to well, only Connie Finnan and Willie O'Connor through so far and Willie has a real tough one next, Robbie Green.

Add Garrett Gray to that now, and he now plays Darryl Gurney, also Mick Egan beat Damien O'Driscoll and now faces Shaun Greatbatch

AndyP

Finnan, Egan and O'Connor gone now.

Carrickman

Martin McCloskey is into the last 32.

Carrickman

McCloskey into last 8. Is it just the winner who quallifys or how many go through today??

AndyP

Credit where its due, only dropped one set and took two big scalps on the way (Hanvidge and Robson).

Carrickman

Oh I agree with you Andy he is doing great and I would like to see him quallify after getting this far.

Carrickman

Martin Phillips, Brian Woods, John Henderson and Martin McCloskey made it into Lakeside 2010.

AndyP

That Woods bloke is one mad lookin fukker!

dartbhoy

Great news that Martin McCloskey has qualified. John Henderson is a player who's had a brilliant year and would be a great bet for Lakeside. He's currently ranked 16th in the BDO rankings and would probably comfortably qualify through the rankings but with the crazy idea of having the play offs before all ranking tournaments are complete he had to enter the play offs! Should be a good Saturday and Sunday on BBC with the Masters.

ratinakeg

Just wondering is the winner of Group 7 Adrian Rees the son of Leighton Rees?

Kingp35

Well done to Martin, very tough to win through qualifiers so he must have thrown some great darts.

Dartgod

Excellent performance from Martin McCloskey.

Hopefully, we will have some more good news from the World Masters !

Hate to quote myself but I should bet on darts for a living.

Grey won his first at the masters 3-0, McGowan won as well, Finnan is either playing or waiting to play, think MCCloskey won as well.

Where are you getting updates from padr?

padr81

where rat said though you can't link directly to a page on the bdo site which is annoying.

padr81

our big 2, Finnan and McCloskey are still there and playing there last 64 matches. Seem to be all thats left in the seniors, Finneran and Meaney in last 16 of the youths.

padr81

finnan is through to the stage finals so should feature on tv tomorrow. think its the last 16, top 8 from today and the top 8 seeds.

Kingp35

Jesus that's a bit ridiculous that the top 8 seeds get a bye into the last 16!

Ridiculous is an understatement !

Well done to Connie Finnan and the best of luck tomorrow in the last 16.

He plays Daryl Fitton at 10.30 am.
