I,ll be surprised if Painter can get a set off Taylor i think his time has been and gone its a young mans game now Taylor is just one of sports freaks in my opinion.

Packed out venues weekly in the premier league often 10k+.........apart from football name me a sport that has higher viewing figures than darts ? Darts is not only becoming a popular social night out but extremely exciting competetive entertainment.......whats exciting about watching people play cards its not even watchable.

Absolutely right.....one of the most fearsome and intimidating men ive ever met said to me years ago " you always need to be able to go up another gear "......hence when you hear these gypsy lads ranting on like lunatics when they do actually lose their rag the element of surprise is gone and they are about as intimidating as a chicken drumstick ! Seeing a nasty man turn nasty is nowhere near as frightening as seeing a gentleman turn nasty.

I dont understand all this fear and apprehension people seem to have about gypsies ive never found them to be any different from regular folk when it comes to confrontation......some will stand up and take it as far as need be and others will just fall away no different to any other community.......as kids we used to go to my nans over Gallions Reach and fight with the gypsy kids as a regular thing it was just the accepted thing to do when we was bored ive often felt guilty about it as an adult we made their life hell at times but give them their dues they gave as good as they got and thats wh

Whether it should be accepted as a sport or not is up for argument.....whats not up for argument is the fact its one of the fastest growing " sports " in the Uk and the second most watched " sport " on tv.......in Asia soft tipped darts is even more popular than normal darts is here.....personally i love it,the mental games as well as the skill,nerve and precision typify what sport is about. Hard to see past Van Gerwen at the moment though im really looking forward to an old school tussle between Taylor and Kevin Painter later on tonight.

Its the sort of sport thats probably more technical than the average sports fan would understand......a bit like sprinting you tend to think a lot of it is natural and apart from physical strength/fitness theres not much to improve on but im sure theres tiny tweaks here and there that make a lot of difference.Its interesting i always had the East End and Liverpool down as similar areas rough docks etc with similar working class and sporting traditions but i cant for the life of me ever remember swimming pools round these parts back then i know we never went with the school infact the only pool

I used to train quite a lot with Jimmy Marku he had ridiculous core strength its hard to imagine how strong the worlds best are people like Brian Shaw and Savickas there joints must be welded !!

I like that it makes a lot of sense....same with anything you just have to have faith in the dogs breeding that its going to do what comes natural when put in that position you dont need to keep " trying it out " every 5 minutes just to put your mind at ease.....selection/breeding/schooling/showtime in that order regardless what breed or what task.

I can see what jdhunting is trying to say and i agree to a point....im a West Ham fan and dont really give a f**k for any club apart from West Ham so i might be way off....but even i can recognise there has always been a certain " style " Man Utd have played with,to me they are the biggest club in the land and fans should therefore be entitled to expect the style of football that brought them that label....that doesnt mean they are entitled to win trophies with it though.....i think Mourinho is completely wrong for Utd to me he is just a good Sam Allardyce he doesnt play to a teams strength he

Did Fury deserve to win it because he is white then ?......Frank Bruno had ten times more personality and charisma than Fury has and he didnt win it.....David Haye,Herbie Hide,Henry Akinwande all won world heavyweight titles they didnt win it either.No my point about him being White was did you honestly believe 10 or 15 yrs ago you'd see a White Brit win what Fury won ?? Bit like a White Brit winning the Olympic 100 mtr gold medal , who right now believes in the next 10 or 15 yrs we'll see a White Brit win that . . I doubt 1 person would believe Thats going to happen & if it did I Guarente -
Swimming and Boxing thats an interesting combination,many times one sport will lead us into another but its not often one sport will compliment another i can see how each of those would but its like anything do you want to play at both or be serious about one.......i didnt learn to swim till my boxing career was finished and i still swim like a petrified kitten now ......national level swimming thats some standard do you think with time and dedication you could of taken it further ?

Not another Northerner who wants to get all brave once the parties over.......just keep calm and stay out of it.......like yous did back then

What makes you think it will have an impact on future generations if it didnt have an impact on you ?.......after all you/we/us are the ones passing things on to the next generation.

The boy is living the dream and f****n good luck to him....if you put your arse on the line,have the talent and dedication to pursue your dreams your entitled to the riches that come with it in my opinion be that sport/business or anything. As for the simple life.......thats what you want when your past being surrounded by flash cars and flash fanny

Surely though human survival instinct must come into play......im sure these dogs can make an awful mess of a person and in short order too....but if either myself or my accomplice have a club hammer to hand that dog only has one mouth and im pretty sure that with even 1 crack of it i could do a fair amount of damage myself........ok we,re talking scenarios and situations but i guess what im asking is do these dogs have the same intensity when under pressure themself......i guess theres no way of knowing unless a real situation arises its not like you can just take a hammer to a dog to find ou

Much as we would all love England to play like Spain and Brazil we just dont have the talent so why bother trying its like we,re trying to match the worlds best with players just not up to it.....could you imagine Peter Crouch or Andy Carroll playing in a Spanish or Brazilian side no.... yet given the chance i think Andy Carroll would score plenty of goals playing to our strengths ( if he could stay fit longer than 5 minutes ).....we are at a complete crossroads as a national team we either have to totally embrace European style football or stick to what we have had success with in the past...

Im currently in training for the East London synchronised swimming title.

I dont really understand this whole thing of caring for what the general public thinks and winning them over.......if the general publics dislike doesnt stop you doing it then why would you care what they think just commit to your own beliefs and bollocks to anyone else..... unimportant people are......well.....unimportant !

Whether he,ll have the authority as a manager im not sure but in some ways i hope he doesnt i miss him doing the punditry stuff he was like a breath of fresh air really interesting to listen to. Very knowledgeable fella, I think he's working his career after football very cleverly, involved with the England set up, now the move to Valencia, the way he seems to absorb information and retain it, all these experiences should line him up very well for the future, certainly one to watch. Its obvious he just lives and breathes the game.....like i say its refreshing........puts himself across we

I,ll take your word for it mate like i said to you before thats way too much dog for me at this point in life Purely out of interest,would that still apply to a man fighting back with i dont know a bat/bar tool of some kind.....is a proper manstopper expected to take punishment......if so surely condition has to come into it.
