    At 6-4 down I thought oops !, but when Phil gotback to 6-6 I thought here we go he will win, but Anderson was great.

    I recorded it and watched the lot when I got in from me gig. Had the result spoilt by some twat in the crowd but it was awesome to watch like.

    I wanted Taylor to win but Anderson thoroughly deserved it.

    Was funny on Saturday night at my gig talking to a lad in the pub who said "Taylor has been lucky with the world titles"

    FFS man - you can;t win 15 World Titles and be lucky every time!! And it's not like refereeing makes a difference either! - The bloke then professed to hating Phil Taylor as he lost to him in amateur stuff years ago!! Get over it man!!

    Yeah, but in darts, generally speaking the crowd just get behind players regardless of their nationality, I think it's nice.

    <laugh><laugh>. Really?


    Play was stopped at an Australian darts competition when rioting fans in fancy dress brawled and threw chairs.

    Dutchman Michael 'Mighty Mike' van Gerwen was playing Australia's Simon 'The Wizard' Whitlock in an invitational tournament at the Etihad Stadium in Melbourne when chaos broke out.

    The pair - among the top-ranked players on the Professional Darts Corporation circuit - were halted when a boisterous crowd took to throwing chairs, tossing tables and grappling in groups.

    Images show a man dressed as Batman's sidekick Robin wrestling with an English knight, while security guards try to calm the situation down.

    Other pictures show men in Hawaiian shirts and also a gang of Oompa Loompas throwing furniture.

    Police later arrived on the scene but not before the entire seating area had been wrecked by the marauding crowd.

    ****ing Aussies.

    The lad off here is the only decent one I've ever come across!

    Helped one Oz lad who was getting his head kicked in, in Koh Samui and afterwards he ended up kicking off with us and my pal left him unconscious on McDonalds floor.
