Maybe, just maybe, he was taking it one match at a time. For a guy who nearly died 24 days ago I guess it wasnt such a priority at the time
Fault finding? I'm merely commenting on something that I found bemusing, or amusing if you like. I'd simply made an assumption that players in a tournament would have some prior knowledge of what lies ahead.
I appreciate the health scare point, but even so, he is still here competing despite that and if you, I or anyone else here can glance at the draw at a few clicks of a mouse, I'm sure it's even more accessible to Douglas who is actually at the venue where one assumes (maybe I should stop assuming?)
quite true and my post was out of order, apologies. it is just frustrating when people are so quick to jump on bad games in the BDO but forget that there was a lot of dross in the first round at the PDC a few weeks ago.

Indeed, but you are the one bringing the PDC into it, not him.
I watch every year, but it really is bad. The PDC lot would wipe these out within minutes! Big fan of Wolfie Adams and Ted Hankey, but i have seen better darts down the pub!
if he gets it back to 2-2 I think he may be ok-- has experience of coming through a lot of close games at the lakeside.
Been supporting him for well over a decade and I felt a bit shortchanged in 2011 as he seemed to win it reasonably comfortably. The masochist in me likes that he's a slow starter and never does anything easily. That 2007 final darn near killed me

No one is forcing you to read the posts either.
If that's his view on the game, so be it.

He may have simply been commenting at face value.
What the heck was that?? Going for double 8, right in the centre of the 16 bed!

This I agree with.
That'll be the lack of lager fuelled idiots for you;)

This kid is seriously promising though
Split???
With what or who?
Separated from Sharon and not on the BDO board anymore
