Superb mate !!! It was doing my head in that . I knew we had one … nice one.

Yes mate, my missus has got us both tickets for the Premier League in Berlin in April, can’t wait though she’s stressing over what costume to wear!

I went to the darts World Cup in Frankfurt. They liked standing on the tables after a few drinks. Be a lively crowd - enjoy.

They usually announce the premier league players after the final.

Think it’s top 4 of merit and 4 others. Bunting deserves a chance, think he’s been in it once a decade ago.

Would love to see him in it. He's alright for a scouser.

Yeah... I actually didn't mention the name of the trophy as I don't really think it's worthy of Sid Waddell. He wasn't everyone's cup of tea but he was certainly entertaining with some of the most obscure references I've ever heard!

I only really watch the darts for the fans and the commentary. I've actually kept track of a number of the lines over the past couple of weeks.....


'Lateral drift' like it's windy

'area of the dartboard that's supposed to suit the southpaw down to the ground'

'navigate a forest of tungsten'

'reading the style of throw'

'missed the whole pie'

'Dobey's just emerged from a long lie down in a dark room after that gruelling match with Gerwyn Price'

'Like a greyhound flying out of the traps to make it to the first bend'

'Like trying to contain a bucking bronco with a ball of string'


They've just come out with another gem....

'This isn't like a sport where you can conserve energy and cruise Usain Bolt style, you have to push to the finish'. Amazing vocabulary for what's essentially a pub game and talking about their 'fitness regimes' whilst pretty much all of them being heavily overweight is rather amusing. Hopefully they all have plenty 'left in the tank' after all that standing about.

I reckon Peter Wright has lost his spot.
Too be fair Bunting does deserve a place which I think he will.

C'man Bunting.
