    Same as Suzuki, missing doubles at crucial times.

    Fair play to Evetts under huge pressure.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,440 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    I hate the booing. So stupid


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,702 ✭✭✭MileHighGuy


    and the booing of evetts and cheering when he misses is not Sherrock's fault.

    Huge dart there, could turn the entire match.

    Deff not fare on him

    70% of the crowd are drunken men so obv they will go for the eye candy

    In telling ya dont be surprised if they Include a female player in the premier league

    Crowd are a disgrace, Evetts is only 22 ffs he doesn't deserve that


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,982 ✭✭✭Degag


    The booing is not right of course but it's not a new phenomenon. If you want to be a top darts player you need to be able to deal with it.

    Agreed. Evetts is a sound lad as well. If he wins this I hope he goes far.

    Let's wait until one of them wins a game first!

    Agreed, it's a pretty thankless task, I suppose as/if it becomes the norm, the inappropriate booing might subside.

    To be honest, the quality of the game is such that I think it has died down a bit.

    the crowd have been a disgrace, and what is worse is how comms are pretending its not happening
    The ref not even asking for order

    She's gone off the boil now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,982 ✭✭✭Degag


    Think the 4 missed darts at double has affected her


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 3,404 ✭✭✭Justin Credible Darts


    her average dropped from 98 to 88
    ted gone from 102 to 92


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,066 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009

    Not that kind of junkies but a lot of drunks and the owl 'ah lads we go to the darts it would be a laugh' types

    It's some laugh going tbh but lots of people aren't there for the darts

    There hasn't been a crowd this hostile since Rocky Balboa fought in the Soviet Union


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,384 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Final set decider.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,384 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    He shouldn’t have starred to walk towards the board.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,029 ✭✭✭PsychoPete


    What's with sky giving Fallon her own hashtag


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,384 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    Fallon could win the men’s BDO tournament playing like the way she is.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,982 ✭✭✭Degag


    Evetts looks done but she not taking advantage.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,496 ✭✭✭Will I Am Not


    Outstanding stuff from Sherrock here whatever happens.

    No idea they did it for Suzuki on Sunday night.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,160 ✭✭✭Huntergonzo


    Good tense game of darts here.

    Can't say I'd be too happy with Sky if I was a Ted Evetts supporter though!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,702 ✭✭✭MileHighGuy


    No matter how well she plays, she still has to get over the line if it comes to it...we already saw her miss 6 darts in a similar position earlier in the match to take the 3rd set.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,515 ✭✭✭shockframe


    On the verge...

    The only thing is he’s 22 so he’s years to get over it if he does lose.

    Evetts looks rattled after those two legs

    8/1 put a tenner on to win 0 ? Events is decent and will prove again no female will beat any professional men.

    Wahey :)

    Evetts played well, especially considering he had the whole crowd against him.

    Huge result for women’s darts


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,160 ✭✭✭Huntergonzo


    Very well done to Fallon Sherrock, great for her to get the win.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,941 ✭✭✭krustydoyle


    What a performance


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,066 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Fair ****s to her

    This could go a long way and the poor BDO could suffer even more now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,440 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    She was brilliant!

    Wheres all the fellas from 3 days ago who said it would never happen?

    Gwan Fallon!

    Played great in fairness

    She can borrow Brendan Dolan's shirt now for the next round 😄


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,905 ✭✭✭Deeper Blue


    Great game in fairness, fair play to her

    Crowd ruined it a bit, doubt we'll hear anything about that from Sky though!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,702 ✭✭✭MileHighGuy


    Yes, she showed some great mettle. She would have beaten plenty of the other men in the first round from what I've seen so far.

    Well that's it, if he keeps it together he can come back from this.

    Be better if the crowd and Sky showed more respect to whoever the women are playing but that's for another day.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,484 ✭✭✭Andrew00


    Poor Ted Evetts looked like he was about to cry with all the booing

    Did anyone else think this???
