I prefer to think of it as civilized. Especially compared to those drunk morons that attend PDC events. They couldn't give a fuck about darts- they just want to get wasted and sing irrelevant songs that, to me, totally disrespect the players.

RE: Darts
Can't quite credit that John Walton's win was 15 years ago.

Think Scott Waites is the only former World Champ left in it.

A pity that Trina Gulliver is drawn against Lisa Ashton in only the quarter-finals.

RE: Darts
How can PDC players go from being good to very bad! Can't believe that they can loose their touch that quickly-

Remember these;
Colin Lloyd
Mark Dudbridge
Roland Schloten
Kirk Shepherd
Peter Manley

All except Kirk Shepherd were class back in the day!!

Waites walloped Hughes 6-1 Smile

Can't believe the Adams-Nixon final was 9 years ago. Sad to learn that Phil Nixon is dead (though I suspect I've heard this before, and forgotten it). It surprises me the number of former big BDO names who didn't go to the PDC and thus presumably sank into obscurity.
