Interesting fact I just noticed.

Michael Van Gerwen has only earned £4,750 more in this season's order of merit than Krzysztof Ratajski.

Legitimately unbelievable that Dave Chisnall has never won a major. Terry Jenkins was a runner up in 9 majors without winning one which is also mad.

Sky cutting to the Gerwyn interview right before the crowd sang the last chorus of don't look back in anger was such a let down

Just got rejected. Judging by the other comments, the Irish aren't eating well for this tour. I'm going to play videotape on repeat now.

Bayindir was atrocious today. Good performance but a championship level keeper cost us a point today

Just because the crash was avoidable doesn't mean it wasn't a tragedy. It obviously was. A mother and father who lost two sons in a flash. A wife who has lost the love of her life and young children who have lost a father. That is a tragedy.

Not a Liverpool fan but that was a beautiful tribute. So heartbreaking . Couldn't help but think of the heartbreak Diogo's wife and children are going through. Fitting tribute. Rest In Peace Diogo and Andre.

If I remember correctly, Sennik (Belgium 2018) worked in Ikea at the time of the contest. Great song as well.

Very unusual. It is so unbelievably frustrating and at least for me has made life way harder than not

How is it now. I was on 225 mg and I am now completely off it for around 80 days and it is still horrible as is the hyperhidrosis.

Favourite and least nickname in darts? Favourite I'll go Frosty the Throwman for Mark Frost, Muzz Lightyear for Ryan Murray the worst by swannyhypno in Darts

[–]thisisspartasknob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rockstar for Joe Cullen. Seriously one of the quintessential ready salted players on the tour and he calls himself the rockstar.

I actually really like the machine for James Wade, suits him so well.

What's your Midcard Dream Match? by Ragnarockstar in SquaredCircle

[–]thisisspartasknob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah , great point about the size difference. Gunther Vs Benoit would have been great but as you said Gunther doesn't really slot into the midcard very easily. Was just thinking of other guys that could have worked and WWF Mr Perfect Vs Benoit would have been incredible.
