The PDC is clearly superior but calling the BDO f***ing shit when in the last 3 years players of the quality of Barney, King, Klaasen, Thornton, VanDerVoort and Stompe have crossed over is naive.

I totally understand what your saying & agree to a point but.


But the 4 i've 'Bolded' aren't going to get close to the PDC World Championship are they?


And I, for one, can't wait.

I personally dont like the Premier League both Football & darts.

I think Klaasen and Van Der Voort may, just give them time.

The other two, not a chance im afraid. King just got lucky I spose.

They're from the BDO which by your own words is 'f***ing shit'

You better hope they don't jump surely??

The other players are totally shocking, yesterday somebody went all the way to the finishes by hitting 60 after 60. I never seen anything like it, and he won the bloody leg. It was so embarassing, even the fans started to lose interest.

I understand that Sky get a pick and the PDC get a pick.

I expect the Sky pick to be Klaasen because he demolished Colin Lloyd and Andy Hamilton en route to the quarters, he's a previous world champion, he's young, quick and exciting.

I then expect the PDC to pick Lewis on the basis that he IS in the Top 8 Order Of Merit and has been for a couple of years now, AND he made the Prem final four last season.

I expect Mardle to miss out. Hamilton would be very unlucky not to get a spot, but he is 40+, slow and has a very poor records against the big boys.

If that's the case surely Lewis is the PDC pick if one assumes this Anderson stuff is bollox. Unlucky not to be top 6 in any case (King got in just ahead of him).

If I was Sky I'd pick Painter. After 14 weeks there would almost certainly be a ruck between him and either Lewis or Taylor as they hate each other. I'm not sure they will pick Klaasen. Barney is the token Dutch representative. Mardle or Manley are the kind of panto villians Sky love.
