DomDom Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Paul Nicholson is now number 16 in the world. Mervyn King is number four, swapping places with Terry Jenkins. There's other switches, but nothing too big, other than John Part falling a further five places. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's other switches, but nothing too big, other than John Part falling a further five places. That'll see him into the TV tournaments automatically then, which gives him the best possible chance of building on his superb victory at Purfleet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 How long till the next major? The Premier League can't be too far away either. The game just continues to go from strength to strength and I can't see Taylor being as dominant as he was last year. He could struggle in something like the UK Open as he has before due to the strength of the field now. I probably love the sport more now than football, that is some major loving! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premier League starts on Feb 11th and the next big TV tournament is the UK Open at the start of June. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Premier League doesn't really count as a major does it, because of the format ? I'm pretty sure James Wade is still down as winning three majors. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loyal-blue Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Did the decent players on here all start off taking a lot of darts for the doubles? Also hitting the 1 and the 5 while going for the 20, and a particular annoyance of mine, aiming for D1 and hitting the T20? Maybe not the same, but did everyone start off similar? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomDom Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 My first two league games, I hit doubles first time ! Of course, I never EVER did that again, apart from the time tigerton seen me play a doubles match, and I hit my only dart on a double. Good times. Double 7 will haunt me forever. I usually missed about 25 chances at a double. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That made 2 chaps very irritated Decided against the Scottish Open this year, nobody from my team or any acquaintances from other teams in the league are going due to the Friday/Saturday thing (a ridiculous decision by the hosts). Oh, that and I forgot about it and missed the application date. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Scottish Open is on the same weekend as PBW in Greenock, so I decided against it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F_T_Y Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Keith Deller is the new manager of Adrian Lewis - now there's a partnership to be feared! Yeah heard that in the new on the wire podcast. Also on the podcast was harrington saying gary andersons attitude isnt right.And he can see coaches coming into the game.He said that players who throw fast ,klassen vdv van gerwen should slow down.I would think that would make them worse because they have been throwing like that their whole lives. Gary anderson is doing an exhibition in dundee i might go along to.What happens in exhibitions ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harrington, fud that he is, does have a good point about Anderson... though he's talking pish when it comes to the likes of Klaasen and van Gerwen - both won major championships throwing like that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 http://www.pdc.tv/page/PremierLeagueDetail/0,,10180~1954873,00.html It's for a very good cause, so well done to the PDC for putting their weight behind it - I want one of those T-shirts though, they look cracking! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomDom Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 If the BDO went under, you'd see a lot more guys come through the PDC. I don't think they need the BDO as much as you think, but the BDO certainly give PDC a lot of help. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshmallo Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 I see Denis Ovens won the Players Championship today in Gibraltar. Unsurprising really given his obvious quality. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
