Enough Rubbish...Now to the serious stuff

Ok lads that time of the year that everyone loves is here. The season
of good will and all that but also the season of both versions of the
Darts World Championships. Only 5 days to go now until Irelands Mick
McGowan stands on the purfleet stage for the first time and the last
time may I add as the PDC world darts championship will be moved to a
more modern venue next year with Central London and Bournemouth in
pole position to win the right to stage it. The world championship is
where any PDPA player wants to be and with the order of merit
starting in January it is the place you have to be.

I'm glad the venue is changing to be honest as anyone who has been to
Purfleet will tell you that although the atmosphere is second to none
the area around the venue is a total kip with nothing nearby only a
tiny garage and a £10 a night hotel.

It kicks off on Monday lads and I've wrote out the prices that Stan
James are offering currently and feel free to look and post your
comments with your NAP and between us all we can get a few winners.

21 Dec 22:00 Roy, Alex 4/6 11/10 Burnett, Richie

You know the NAP I have put down but there are one or two others that
stand out for me.
Colin Osbourne at 5/4 is tempting and John Kuczynski too at 11/8. The
American Bill Davis at 5/1 is worth a fiver too and one guy who I
left out as well is Martin Burchell who was outstanding in Birmingham
and he sits on 6/4 awaiting the play the Diamond that is Dave Askew.

Ok lads I didn't want to get caught up in this. K.L knows me better than that but if ya want to do that we will. A head to head €5000 a man match will not be a problem what so ever. Best of 41 legs. Neutral venue sounds logical. Winner take all. We'll do it in the new year sometime. You get a contract drawn up and we'll play it on a free weekend away from the PDPA calendar. Contact me directly on this one as any more comments after this relating this matter will not be published.

Just a short comment to all the idiots who have posted abusive & personal comments on this blog about Alan Keoghan. This man has done more than any other person in this country for the game of darts so he deserves respect for this! As far as i can see all this abuse comes from pure jealousy from a few narrow minded people who are too wrapped up in their own little bubbles to realise the ammont of work that Alan puts in...maybe those abusers should do a little bit more for the game instead of knocking those who do!!!

Somebody needs to go toe to toe with you with this tipping lark Keoghan. I’m gonna take you on in every round and we’ll see who is showing the most profit to a €10per bet stake at the end. The way I see it the first round is crying out for the old reliables to be backed and even though there are a lot of very short odds players around 1/7 some of these are actually a bet at these odds. I have gone for an 9 man accummulator at odds of 3/1 with PaddyPowers which should set me up nicely for the 2nd Round.

Part,Manley,Lloyd,A.Lewis,Hamilton.

A head to head in the Deiseland might just be what the county needs to re unite it a bit. You'd get a great crowd for that. Is that county Waterford or the city of Waterford does anyone know?
