i always thought marc was a great player but i think winning the singles was the stepping stone he needed to show everyone what he's capable of. when your on a team with the likes of mick,billy,lar and bullet its hard to shine but he certainly did this year

First night of this tonight. The draw to see what groups the 16 lads are in will be done at 7:30 tonight and the darts can start straight away but no later than 8 as there are a lot of matches on each board to get through. Best of luck to the 16 lads playing tonight!

the four winners from the first week

freddykrueger

are people aloud swap nights just that one of them that got through wasnt on the list

mackeire

it was a last minute decision as kev lacey rang us and said he couldn't make it as he is sick and we didn't want to be down on numbers. Kevin o'callaghan done us a favor by playin last night. We asked the lads who were there to play and nobody had a problem with it. Well done to kevin, mick kane, glen fitzpatrick and scott whelan on qualifying for the finals. 2 of the boards came right down to the last leg to see who would go through!!

sounds like it was a good night who beat marc ennis

Marc was unbeaten on the night, it went down to a one leg difference between him and Mick Kane thats how close there board was Mick won one of hie matches 4-0 while Marc won 3-1. was the same with nearly every group

that seems very unfair the best player in the borough at the moment goes out on leg difference trail and error fair play for giving it a go lads

but isnt that what you want in a tournament that every leg counts so you have to be on top of your game from start to finish, marc and mick had two great games against eachother both ending in a 2-2 draw

The format is a group. Like in the champions league in football. If man united and barcelona are in the same group and end up on the same amount of points, its just tough luck that one has a better goal difference than the other!! Same thing applies here.

So fluffy, what would you do to make it better? Dont forget that the whole point of this comp is that its league format and the player that finishes highest in the league they are in goes through.

Haha sure maybe you should have a word with the PDC and let them know that they way they run the Premier League is wrong.

In fact maybe you should ring the Fa and the FAi and also Rugby and GAA league as well to let them know that they are doing it wrong as well.

Leg difference is always used to seperate two people that are level on points. the rules are there for all to see before they start playing in the tournament.

i didnt mean to upset use running it i was only giving my opinion and i would of made them have a one leg shoot out lads can switch off when they have a game won its impossible to give a 100 percent in every leg in that format and the player that suffers has been the best player in the league all year and to get knocked out seems unfair THATS ONLY MY OPINION kingp dont be going on silly you would be the first one to say this site is for opinions no wonder people dont use this site anymore

i know what you ment and your right it is impossible to give 100% in every leg but thats what we are striving for so the winner of the whole tournament is the best player through out not. it was just unfortunate for mick and marc two of the best players in the borough to be in the borough but thats the luck or unluck of the draw

If you give your opinion then you should be prepared for someone else to give theirs as well. Don't be getting all defensive, you gave your opinion and you're entitled to it but others have given theirs back.

It's a league format so it's run like a league. As I said the players know beforehand what the rules are so they should be focused on winning every single leg.

I'll be playing this coming Wednesday and if I happen to go out because of one leg then so be it, it's my fault for not winning more legs.

I have nothing to do with the running of the tournament but I think the lads have format done perfectly.

Well if it has nothing to do with me then it also has nothing to do with you because you weren't playing last night either. Looks as if people have disagreed with what you have said and you're getting all defensive over it and if anyone is giving out here it's you.

Oh and well done on the childish come back, calling people names is something that's done in a primary school yard. It's also against the forum charter but since you're new here and it's directed at me then I'll ignore it for now but no more name calling, cheers.

I will also apologise if I was disrespectful towards you but I don't see any problem with how the group winners are decided.

lads seriously now, you shouldn't be bitching at each other on this. What you should be talking about is the darts that were played last night. Scott whelan from the gallops won board 1. Played very well and was well clear on points to win the board.
Board 2 went right down to the last leg of the night. Glen fitzpatrick, bill bailey and tony geraghty all in with a chance until the very end. Pader taite was no push over on that board either. 48 legs of darts played on the board and it was decided after the last leg!! Thats some competitive board!! Glen won the board but bill didn't lose a match all night!!
Board 3 was like board 2, going right down to the last leg. The 2 big names were drawn together and both played well all night! In the end mick kane won the board. Him and marc ennis were both unbeaten but it was because of mark fennell taking 2 legs off marc in the 2 matches they played each other that mick only needed a draw in the last game to go through.
Board 4 was won by kev o'callaghan who was called to play at the last minute and came down and played brilliantly all night! He won by a couple of clear points but he was run right to the end with neil mcdonald and ste knight not giving up and both taking points off him.

Thats only the first week done and there is loads more darts to be played and i know i'll be looking forward to going down each week!

Thats a killer on a player like marc going out by one leg but knowing him id say he just took it in his stride
