    taylor says the same when every premier league is on to promote it same as sky hype everything up he always says the worlds is the only 1 people really want i cant believe some people would believe skys hype ! they say every night is best ever, best line up ever, blah blah


    Yeah they want to win the worlds because its more prestigious and a lot more prize money. im not arguing which is a better tournament. Im just saying it's harder to win the PL.

    How exactly is it harder?
    Anderson and van Gerwen both won a PL before a WC. Wade won a PL but still hasn't won a WC.

    The format is too long and the games too short to take it seriously. It's nowhere near as hard to win as a World Championship IMO.

    Look at football for example, (different sport,same logic) A poor team often wins the FA cup, but never the Premier league. Why? Because it's harder to win a tournament that lasts longer with better players! Last post on this as it's a pointless argument.

    Another awful comparison, you can finish 4th in the Premier League out of 10 players, so effectively mid-table, and still win the competition. Really I'm completely baffled by your logic, it makes no sense at all. The Worlds is by far the harder to win.

    Ok. You don't have to agree with me. It's just my opinion. This thread will be ruined if we keep it up.
    Who do we think will win this years PL? I see MVG beat Anderson in the final of the German open yesterday with a 117 average. Serious darts! Think he has won 30 out of his last 31 games since losing to Gary at the worlds. The mans on a mission. Hard to see past him?

    https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pWcpVigYN7Y Theres the match for anyone that wants to see it. Bad picture quality but the match makes up for it.

    Hard to see anyone beating MvG in this form. Serious darts. I'm just hoping for some close games this week, it's been pretty disappointing so far when it comes to close matches.

    Yep. Apart from bunting and wade in week 1. Gary v Mvg this Thursday and Taylor v Bunting should be the pick of em.

    Who are Celtic? ;) Thinking of Liverpool match lol. Gonna put football on laptop & darts on tv.

    Bad start from Wade, 2-0 down to Chizzy. They said he had an accident or something during the week? What was that about


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,480 ✭✭✭Devastator


    Waddling Wade went 3-2 up, Chizzy missed T19(8th) for 9 dart attempt but tided up 3-3


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,480 ✭✭✭Devastator


    Draw! finished 6-6


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,169 ✭✭✭ComfortKid

    Celtic match is on Setanta. They're too good for free to air tv :-P
    Bunting off to a bad start here. Could be in trouble

    Had Wright to win btw.First game a draw. Knew he was f***** when barney got to 6. Good draw for Peter though.

    Very disappointing from Bunting last night. Nerves clearly got to him in front of the home crowd and big expectation. Taylor could smell blood too and went in for the kill. Anderson was off form too. Looked angry with himself throughout. MvG was having a slightly off day by his standards and Gary didn't really put it up to him.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,169 ✭✭✭ComfortKid


    No one really performed to their best. Some close games but a disappointing night in general I thought. Even Wrights comeback wasn't very dramatic. Roll on next week.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,480 ✭✭✭Devastator


    DAMMIT!

    1st night I've not been to the PL in Belfast :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,480 ✭✭✭Devastator


    Far from a sell out by the looks of it tonight BUT the odyssey is a sh*tehole, takes far too long to get into the venue & the queues for drinks,etc is unbelievably poor so could be about 1/2 the crowd outside of the big hall waiting to get in.

    You really need to be standing in the queue outside 1 hour before to get in(with drinks) on time


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,625 ✭✭✭✭Johner


    Van Gerwan talks some shite.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,480 ✭✭✭Devastator

  • Registered Users Posts: 21,625 ✭✭✭✭Johner


    Disastrous from Bunting.
