You gonna lay 10/1 Emma in top 3 market then
That's not quite the same market as saying she beats Keely though. She can get top 3 without beating Keely. |
|
By:
Nothing to do with you, im asking the clown to lay me the 10/1. There is no market for that anyway so pointless talk
|
|
By:
This is a betting forum, if you're gonna pipe up...back it up with the markets available
|
|
By:
The discussion was about whether Emma beats Keely, which you were first to mention actually army - so maybe tell yourself to pipe down then?

Yeah she probably will, but i want to make money so lay the bet im asking for

Game of Throws: Inside Darts The world of darts is more popular than ever - the World Championship held every Christmas at Alexandra Palace sells out in minutes and millions tune in to watch worldwide. In a year like no other, this three-part series for Sky Documentaries offers exclusive access to the world of professional darts. This celebratory access-all-areas documentary series will track the action from pre-tournament preparation to the final and beyond, following up-and-coming hopefuls to top-seeded players - the likes of Michael van Gerwen, Luke Humphries and darts wunderkind Luke "The Nuke" Littler. We'll also spend time with the families who support them to achieve their dreams, as well as those who work tirelessly behind the scenes to create this global phenomenon. |

Did someone say you can be in both SPOTY and Young SPOTY at same time. Young SPOTY winners haven’t ever been in top 3 in main comp as far as I can see.
These include Wayne Rooney Tom Daley Eli Simmonds Theo Walcott Andy Murray Luke might choose this prize rather than 3rd in Spoty main ? |

By:
Luke doesn't get a choice, many have been on main award that didn't want to be.

Barry Hearn will 100% want Luke Littler on the list, the contract for tv rights the PDC has with SKY runs out after this years world championships.
Barry wants a lot more money to renew the contracts after the sport has exploded since last years final, if SKY don't cough up and pay Barry will look elsewhere. He is doing this to get the players the money they deserve. Luke's involvement in SPOTY will make a deal even more valuable to the sport and the players, Luke winning SPOTY and becoming the 1st player to do so would be massive for the sport. Darts will never ever get a better chance to win SPOTY simples . https://talksport.com/video/darts/2088350/barry-hearn-suggests-darts-star-luke-littler-will-become-a-millionaire-by-remarkable-new-deadline/ watch the vid |

Trump would definitely vote luke

By:
There is usually around 12 people on the panel, be funny if Barry was one of them this year...if not im guessing he'll know a few

By:
I can't remember how many panelists, but is it as many as 12?
|
|
By:
Athletes: Ellen White, Colin Jackson, Ellie Simmonds, Chris Paterson
Sports journalists: David Coverdale, Rob Maul, Charlotte Harpur UK Sport: Dame Katherine Grainger Sports broadcaster: Holly Hamilton BBC Sport: Barbara Slater, Philip Bernie, Gabby Cook 2023 You'd think the journos would be most likely to remember luke |
|
By:
Rob is Darth Maul's kid
|
|
By:
yeah ive checked the last 3 years 11/12 ish, not sure before that
|
|
By:
The BBC sport ones will know him, Luke has had god knows how many articles written about by now...it was 70/80 odd back in the summer
|
|
By:
Wouldn’t Barry want Luke standing with Keeley with both their winners trophies at the end of the show ?
The future of Darts ![]() Rooney was similar profile to Littler but in a proper sport. Same as Murray and Daley. |
|
By:
Luke is Barry's golden egg and turned up at just the right time, make of that what you will
|
|
By:
Maulo is actually the Sun, the very person type that would ensure lukey involvement. Ping him an email and ask if he knows who's on this year
|
|
By:
The rest are virtually all bloody bbc mafia
|
|
By:
lol if its the sun journo Luke is 1.01 to get on
|
|
By:
Think its different every year brushy, the BBC ones are the same i think, that Bernie every year

That 2019 one would have been terrible for luke. 2023 ideal though
|
|
By:
I don't think the bbc bods are supposed to choose, just offer guidance
|
|
By:
The BBC love Littler so i don't know why you're worried brushy, he got invited a couple of times to the BBC and has probably had over a 100 articles written this year.

By:
You'd say 21, 22, 23 have all had someone that would push for lukey inclusion
|
|
By:
Yeah, this is all good evidence. I need evidence after the bruising last night lol
|
|
By:
lol just gotta get back on the bike, tbh if he don't get listed i crack on with life but im not gonna sit back and not back the biggest value ive ever seen in my life coz a few people on a couple of forums don't think he'll get listed.
ive not seen one shred of evidence by any journo or sports writer that has come out and said he shouldn't be listed or won't be, not one !! |
|
By:
and i spend all day every day researching, funny enough today i looked at some twitter posts from some sports journo's and writers, i went back to 5th august to see how many had tweeted about Keely winning the gold. You'd be very surprised to know how many didn't give her a single mention. The same people the days before and after were tweeting about other competitors though and there triumphs. End of the day you still have to like running, some prefer swimming, cycling etc.
|

By:
The people now backing her at 1.23 either are very confident Luke is not getting on the list or not worthy of being on the list coz they consider darts not a sport. Given SPOTY's prestigious past as only promoting snobby sports like athletes, cricket, cycling, motorsport, tennis etc.
Maybe they don't know Taylor was on the list in 2010 so its not as if its never happened but if he gets on that list i only see some very burnt fingers come Dec 15th |
