It always looked a good craic at the darts, but chanting has been a little hateful at times.
But that’s what we hear on the TV and I guess a lot has been edited out.
I feel sorry for Gerwyn’s family in attendance, it must be upsetting to be subject to that abuse.
Thankfully he is getting the job done and silencing them with his talent. Some of the idiots who seem to be taking it too far are being ejected.
Hopefully when the premier league comes to Cardiff he has Red Wall type of support.
It's not really relevant whether his family were in attendance or not. They are equally protected under the 2010 Equality Act, whether they are in the audience or watching at home.
If the crowd started singing 'get your t1ts out...' towards Fallon Sherrock, or 'you fat bastard' towards another player, they are protected under the law as much as Gerwyn Price should be.

In the case of Price,Sky didn’t give a toss initially because Welsh sensitivity to being stereotyped never entered their heads as being of any concern even to the Welsh. That point of view has been borne out by some of the posters on this board. A poem by R.S. Thomas entitled “Reservoirs” might be worth reading.
