FFS Barney. Shocking attitude. Hope he loses now.
That said, can't face watching another Dolan match. |
|
By:
Anderson doesnt mind it but think its because he used to practice (and may still do) with Justin Pipe
|
|
By:
5 straight legs jeezo
|
|
By:
Great finishing from Dolan the last few legs.
|
|
By:
5 thrown 5 hit after not getting close in first 2 sets
|
|
By:
I layed Dolan at 1.05 to win £200. Cant believe what i'm seeing here
|
|
By:
I think Dolan is every bit as slow as Pipe
|
|
By:
Well played Barney.
|
|
By:
Dolan should be thrown out after missing the 19 altogether
|
|
By:
Dolan missed a trick here awful attempt at 81 but fair play to Barney hitting the max after Dolan had
|
|
By:
no he is not but he is one of the slower players,i just feel the best matchs are when players who play at a similar speeds meet in general.dolan v pipe might be a classic in its own way as they are well matched,then again as viewing spectacle maybe not.
|
|
By:
Definitely think hes slower than normal today he's definitely trying to put Barneveld out of his rhythm
|
|
By:
I think blaming a slower opponent is a sign of weak mental strength. Seems like an easy excuse. A player throws exactly the same way, i don't see why waiting a few more seconds for your throw can make that much difference.

By:
Players earn a fortune, so adapting to a variety of oppponents should be easy enough. i thought they were supposed to be professionals.

By:
Sorry, rant over.

By:
I agree with you MC
|
|
By:
MC / HH - totally wrong - if you played a lot of darts you would understand playing the likes of a Dolan / Pipe etc does affect your game. I've done it myself. (played the very slow players and you lose part of your flowing game)
|
|
By:
same as any one on one sport sometimes an opponent will be fast sometimes slow the best players adapt to it
|
|
By:
of course the pace of a player can effect the other player...but they are professionals and should learn to get the job done regardless of conditions.
I get tough jobs all the time at work...so what...thats what I am trained to do. |
|
By:
Barney is mentally soft, in this case talking about slow play affecting him is irrelevant as he just sulked his way through the match anyway
|
|
By:
You lot are such damn bores coming on saying how you would do it and how other people are weak !! These guys are total pros who have a great living ! Its so easy to come on insulting Barney from your computer and sad lives

Well who the hell are you coming on saying a great player who gives 1000s of people great entertainment is MENTALLY SOFT - YOU wouldnt say that if you met him TO HIS FACE so why come on as a NOTHING insulting him -Coward
|
|
By:
good point well made polly
some dishes need doing if you dont mind see you later? |
|
By:
Go and play with yourself cos im sure no one else will
|
|
By:
Why's it always the slow players who are used as an excuse for losing or not playing as well? I'm sure it works both ways and that a fast player can disrupt and speed up a slow player.

if slowing up a quick player does not work,why would crafty old pro's like peter manley,merv king and a few more of that ilk bothered in the past to do it on purpose,as a tactic as they thought it would give them a better chance of winning against certain players.

Nice to escape back on here from twitter and people having **** measuring, aftertiming exercises overthere.
Really is something at times. |
|
By:
Enough bickering lads. It's Christmas!!
I'm following HH in on Rand here. He was superb in R1 imo. Should get at least 2 or 3 sets. 50:50 this one so worth a back at the odds. |
|
By:
Dont see much bickering danno
just someone saying how dare you come on a forum and give an opinion on players you are watching |

I must follow the wrong people on Twitter, don't have many aftertimers, although I do choose vaguely carefully and have blocked a couple of morons.
