Chokes and blame the crowd. It's textbook Merv.
If the crowd are that much of a problem, suck it up, give a good speech, kiss their arse and change opinions. Instead he makes it 10 times worse for next time, I know it cant be easy, the crowd can be morons but he needs to look at himself to. |

It's a real shame that Phil wasn't there to give Merv a richly-deserved friendly pat on the head like at Wolver a few years back.

The players can't have it both ways.
If you want to play for decent money you have got to get the paying punters in. If that means copious amounts of alcohol and a bit of pantomime then so be it. The alternative is to make every venue alcohol free and play in silence. Unfortunately the crowd will then be much smaller and will certainly not be paying £50 a head. Kings purse would then be nearer £4k rather than £40k. |

Funny how the crowd only gets mentioned when he starts to play poor, he was 4-1 up and crusing then his level dropped.He couldn't pick his level up, it's easy to blame the crowd. ^^^^^^^ what a load of ####. The crowd affected him. They have to remember there is £60K at stake. |

King better going back to the BDO. If he feels the way he does, and keeps moaning about the crowds, it will only get worse. Sure he did not moan
about the crowds' at the BDO as much. |

Anyway, a little gift to you all.

It's 60k for a reason, the fans, can't have it both ways.How much will the winner of this BDO final walk away with?

so what we got next for betting guys?

Banned_Banks: Agree but Barry Hearn has to take the credit here. It is him who has increased the prize money. Yes yes yes we all pay a little, BUT the major chunk comes from the sponsors.

Spillsy knows what he's talking about to be fair. He's been on the receiving end of crowd abuse himself, during his 5 year reign as PG Tips Desert Classic winner in Runcorn. All sorts were giving him vile abuse. One of the PG Tips chimps even jumped onto the stage and pulled his trousers down while he was trying for a 9 darter (was throwing 1st dart of the leg at the time). How sick was that?

 AND they threw wet tea bags at me. |

THE BEASTS !!!

By:
The sponsors put the Money in because of the Viewing Fiqures and attendances so that's a point doesn't make any sense.

By:

49ers to cover the handicap next I hope
|
|
By:
Its to do with VIEWING figures sponsorship. (not the crowd) OK it plays a small part.
|
|
By:
After football - Sky's next highest rated sport is DARTS. (not rocket science)
|
|
By:
yes magnus caris. they crowd just totaly ransacked his chances in a match he ws going t win easily ,
|

I don't disagree however without the crowds making the atmosphere Sky would not have as strong a product and sponsors would not be as willing to pay top price. |
|
By:
Oh well, at least I layed Caris at 1.0x so all's well that ends well.
Sorry for aftertiming btw |
|
By:
unless its Lord Phil getting stick then brown nose davie clark and the rest of the sky gravy train comms dont give a sh1t.

By:
Would the viewing figures be so high if their was 2 Men and a Dog watching alongside the Players Families and Friends??Somehow I don't think so. Please don't go throwing insults about because your Man lost.

By:
Forget the crowd - THE PLAYERS make the sport. They deserve the credit for getting the sport where it is.

I backed MVG
IMO you are wrong - simple |
|
By:
RichyH - have you played darts on a stage? (Even at County level)
|
|
By:
Ok. I wont say anymore on it. Sorry for the seethe, just didnt seem right that tonight.
Was biggest game in both players career. For me both deserved a fair chance with the crowd and not all that nonsense. |
|
By:
The Players make the Sport, that is absoulte bollocks, if nobody watched Darts the Players would be playing in the Pub.

So have you played darts on a stage?
