I haven't watched TV darts since it became a circus with audiences who behave like immature cretins. But earlier in the week I was in a boozer where it was on all four screens. I took a dislike to one player before he threw a dart; just his swagger was enough. He was a squat short arse who really fancied himself. His every mannerism screamed horrible prick. So I was disappointed to see his name and national flag appear on screen: Gerwyn Price, Wales.
He won but'll be hammered when he meets someone half decent.
So Pipe decides to taunt the crowd.
Bit lacking in brain cells, that guy.
I used to enjoy watching darts for many years as an idle amusement. I'm assuming you're quite young and don't recall the days before players' intro music, dolly birds and headers in the crowd acting like apes when the camera is turned on them.
PS Taylor's strolling past Pipe.
Done both PDC (Circus Tavern and Ally Pally) and BDO.
Only did Ally Pally once, but did the Lakeside 7 years on the trot
Haven’t been back to either since 2011. There in my opinion is no comparison - The whole Lakeside experience was just fantastic.
Didn't watch last night's game, saw the live text at Sky's site. I see Price's next opponent is the tournament fave who's best-priced at 25-1 on to win. Had a look into Price's background to discover my initial impressions of him were spot on. Had to chuckle at the news report linked below. He played the hardcase bully and suffered a one-punch KO for his troubles.

Price is alright. It's nice to see him doing well.
I think he'll be up to 11th in the world when the rankings are updated.
He won't beat MvG though.
I'll stick with my assertion that he's anything but alright. Here's him being the aggressive bully again and again.
Cracking match that was! I was so glad when our Gezzy put Cadby in his place.
Welsh lad, Jamie Lewis v Peter Wright on the mo.
Lewis 2-1 up. Great match.
Welsh man Jamie Lewis 2-1 up in sets v Snakebite
Averaged 120 in sets 2 and 3.

What a set of darts!!!!
Jamie Lewis knocks out Peter Wright 4-1
Unbelievable darts
Decent path to the semis if he can replicate that form
Great win for him and fair play to wright at the end of the game
Gezzy Price v MVG about to start
I predict Price will take 3 legs
Another great game. Price threw it away when he could he gone 3-2 up. Think the momentum would have been with him in the last set.
The Welsh guy got close.
Price's arse went at the critical moment with three goes at a double to go 3-2 up in sets. It was great seeing the disappointment on his mug.
