lanesra 3,961 Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 Another Great Tournament , Anderson's 3 Darts Falling Out Was A First (Sid Waddell Would Of Had Some Fun Describing That) To Beat Taylor You Have To Play At Your Best & Anderson Deserved His Victory Held His Nerve At 6 All , Taylor Shows His Character When He Loses Obviously Gutted But Shows His Opponent Respect . . Sign Of A Top Bloke !! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In all fairness Anderson did say himself it was a scrappy game........i think he probably meant in terms of the amounts of missed doubles.......both players averages were up and down every set. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gnash , I've been watching the BDO "World Championship" on BBC and Bt , and to see 70 and averages makes a mockery of darts. The PDC is so far in front it's unbelievable ! To call this final "Scrappy" is insane. The level of darts now is something old aquaintences of mine like Rees, Bristow, Lowe, etc, could only dream of. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Oh i totally agree i cant be doing with that BDO crap they,re still stuck in a time warp with the muggy gold bracelets and rings......tells you everything you need to know when their world champion couldnt get past the quarter final in the PDC !........I really admire Phil Taylor he has a fantastic attitude to competition ive said for a while now if you accept Darts as a sport he has to be Britains greatest ever sportsman. Did you play yourself then mate ?......I really like the game but im diabolical at it no matter how much i practise Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My greatest success was to win my pub qualification for the News Of The World Championship. I got well beat in the area final, but it didn't stop me from being a darts fan, as I am still today.

gnasher16 29,791 Posted January 5, 2015 Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 Better to compete and lose than never know if you can win ....i think its a cracking game any one on one mental battle of nerve like that i find fascinating. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You may not agree, mate, but darts , I think, is very much like a sport close to your heart; boxing! It's two men , toe to toe, fighting out for a prize.... That prize is WINNING ! I'd guess that world champion chess players have the same feeling, it's all about being the best, runners, jumpers, throwers, whatever, if you are the best in what you do..... There can be no better feeling ! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnasher16 29,791 Posted January 5, 2015 Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 I wouldnt disagree at all......in my opinion keeping your physical technique together when under massive mental pressure is an art in itself.........boxing aside i went through an unfortunate period in life when i played table tennis,pool and darts for long periods every day ......even though there was never anything more than a tube of toothpaste riding on it the pressure of being ultra competetive is something that takes massive control so as not to let your mind get the better of your technique.......so when i watch a game like that darts tonight i have so much admiration for their strength of mind.....regardless of the big crowd and the occasion which is hard enough....but the sheer pressure you put yourself under as a competitor.................very impressive. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bracken boy 584 Posted January 5, 2015 Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 it makes me laugh why people slag the b.d.o. its a feeder for pdc the standard is lower because most is just county level so its unfair to compare, they miss more doubles which lowers there average, with more experience they make good players... many ov u are snobs watching the cream, do you say that about football?? i for one will be wwtching b.d.o.. ya clowns.
