This Corey Cadby is a casual guy, isn't he.

As he's about to scoop up yet another televised major, I wonder if this will be another season where MVG wins seemingly everything but then trips up in the biggie.You'd think not but the one thing about the set format is, is it is a bit of a leveller.
Seems crazy if he'd still be behind Gando and Lewis on number of world titles given his dominance of the sport, but it's not beyond the realms of possibility.... |

11-3. Ridiculous. 23rd title this year alone. Must be the hottest favourite for the world title ever surely

Procession, pure and simple.
Now we wait to see who MvG will get in the first round of the Worlds when the draw is made on Sky Sports News tomorrow at 3.30. |

If he wins the worlds he'll hold all tv majors, did Taylor ever do that?

Here's the draw for the first round of the PDC World Darts Championship:
Mervyn King v Steve West Cristo Reyes v Dmitri van den Bergh Ian White v Kevin Simm/Gilbert Ulang Steve Beaton v Devon Petersen Raymond van Barneveld v Robbie Green Mensur Suljovic v Ron Meulenkamp Michael van Gerwen v Ross Snook/Kim Viljanen Benito van de Pas v Tengku Shah/Masumi Chino Jamie Lewis v Mick McGowan Peter Wright v Jenny Hendriks/Warren Parry James Wade v Ronny Huybrechts Robert Thornton v Zoran Lerchbacher/Simon Stevenson Simon Whitlock v Boris Koltsov/Dragutin Horvat Jamie Caven v Kevin Painter Phil Taylor v John Bowles/David Platt John Henderson v Andrew Gilding Alan Norris v John Michael Michael Smith v Ricky Evans Terry Jenkins v Josh Payne Brendan Dolan v Christian Kist Daryl Gurney v Jermaine Wattimena Stephen Bunting v Darren Webster Joe Cullen v Qiang Sun/Corey Cadby Gerwyn Price v Jonny Clayton Dave Chisnall v Rowby-John Rodriguez Justin Pipe v Chris Dobey Mark Webster v Joe Murnan Kim Huybrechts v James Wilson Adrian Lewis v Magnus Caris Vincent van der Voort v Max Hopp Gary Anderson v Mark Frost Jelle Klaasen v Jeffrey de Graaf One footnote: the only reason that Kevin Painter made the draw at all is because a place shuffled down to him after poor Kyle Anderson - who would have been a seed - had to withdraw from the tournament after being unable to secure a British visa. |

Smith v Evans could be all over before Justin Pipe's thrown his warm up darts.

Eric Bristow comments trending on Twitter.
Fair chance a large degree of alcohol has been consumed. May not be appearing at World Championships this year. |

Don't think there's any 'may' about it, Sky won't tolerate this.

Eric's comments certainly were not very "crafty", just downright horrible, there goes his career on the TV, all for what, a few seconds or minutes on twitter, deary me.

I don't imagine they'll miss him as a commentator and pundit but they might do as a spotter, so I wonder whether Sky might be giving Richard Ashdown or Huw Ware a call in the next few days. (Under the adage that "all publicity is good publicity", though, I wonder whether some at Sky will be pleased at the awareness of Sky's darts coverage appearing on other media outlets a fortnight before the Worlds begin.) |

Indeed; Sky are very quick and decisive when it comes to dealing with controversies involving their personnel and pundits, and so it's proved again.

He doesn't deserve any airtime ever again, or until he makes a sincere and grovelling apology face to face, to those people who he insulated with those horrible and very much undeserved comments. |
