Got to agree, a bit of a anti climax, Luke wasn't pushed and still won like that, can't wait to see him have a real ding dong with someone 
@Beyonce, no he's a man, and kids will look up to him and think that behaviour's o.k

He’s an 18 year old kid.

Think the occasion got to Veen and his head fell off. Shame really could have been an even better match than it was.
Only ever going to be one winner for me and the frightening thing is that he's only going to get better. 
£1,000000 for winning a game of darts. 
The wasp situation is a bit embarrassing for what was a cracking tournament.

What a tournament and what a final that was. Littler completely different level 
Inspiring a new generation of dart chuckers, I can see why 
For a young man unreal under the mental pressure and some adversity from the crowd. I saw him early on shrug his shoulders and I thought, yep, he’s ooozing confidence!
His semi with Searle was unreal, I thought after watching VV there might be some competition tonight, broke him
18 years old, immense

If Veen's smug what's Luke  I used to like Luke but his antics have turned me against him, I mean the fans want him to go for something, he doesn't (because they've annoyed him) and then gives a snide look to the crowd  He want's to go for the 9 darter because they (fans) need the 60k more than he does, righteous xxxxx...... Nope he's blown it with me, like so many sports people who have all the skill but just have that nasty side to them, not for me. He used to be humble, oh how 6mill can change someone.
I think you're right on the 9 dart, personal mission for both of them, and both have been very close, more than twice in a game...oh so hoping they're both on it

If they both bring their A game tonight it could well be the best final ever seen. 🤞
Veen is waaay to smug for my liking. Got to go with Luke.
I predict a nine darter tonight. Or two.

That was some semi between Veen & Anderson last night, should be quite a final, quite fancy Veen for it.

Humphries looked very strong last night, drifted off in the 3rd tho, reckon he gave that leg to Lim ❤️
Van Veen, he's a talent, I reckon even Littler might struggle with him!.

Wierd day of darts yesterday, shows you're only as good as the day.
Suljovic, he's a character but getting through with that average...wow
Gerwyn  if Wesley brings his A game he could go far.
Schindler looking very strong.
Littler very dodgy start, tbh, Suljovic might well mess his game up royally, still can't see Littler losing that though.
EDIT, tonight should be good, Leonard Gates walk on and Paul Lim v Humphries

Same for me, proper atmosphere, used to love watching all the fans pissed up, bet there has been some great days out there 
the standard of the young players is something else at the mo
100% nice to see it, and nice to see how popular it is

144 checkout turned it for Gurney. Same for Sherrock missed doubles cost her. But Greaves definitely on a different level reckon she will do well on PDC tour.

Really impressed with Beau Greaves last night, her stats on entering the game with Daryl were very good and if it wasn't for a couple of misses she could have beaten him, defo one to watch.
And from the other night, Sakai..what a entertaining 🌟
..love it when its not too serious.

Probably like you, I grew up watching the BDO, I was gutted when it ended, but end it did.
I still love the darts, love watching the fans, and the standard of the young players is something else at the mo, who cares if Sky are driving it for financial gain.
As a Man U supporter it'd be hypocritical of me to say otherwise, and I'd rather watch the dart fans than the people in OT or the players on the pitch. My Mrs has renewed our Now TV/Sky Sports last 3 years running as I refuse to watch MU, I was grateful she fell asleep on the sofa on Mon so I could turn the darts on.
Lakeside also had fishing, remember Jim Davidson catching that Carp off the jetty was it

NON Carp stuff
