The Darts Thread

He was always slurring. I just assumed he was either thick as fuck or had a mild stroke.
 
Judging by what I saw when Grand Slam was on two years ago he was massively pissed. He was in the Western at opening time every day with several pints on the go.

Eric Bristow has been sacked by Sky Sports.
Eric, you require a P45.

Not really a problem, all you heard off Bristow was who he'd backed and how much he'd won.. Dinosaur commentary.
 
My first meeting with Bristow was at a hotel in Doncaster which was split between the night before my cousins wedding and the PDC darts guys (not a problem as my uncle went to Cambrige with Sid Waddell so there was a bit of a connection).

Me and my brother spent a very pissed night in the bar with a load of the darts players, bought a couple of drinks (using my dad's room number) and got a few lessons. Bristow clocked it, drank near enough a bottle of Scotch and put it on the same tab. Crafty Cockney my arse.
 
I've met Bristow a few times and everytime he's come across as a tosser.

Sky have sacked him, but when was the last time they'd used him as a pundit?
 
Not for ages. He can't do the maths on the finishes any more. Sometimes they use him for the introductory bit but it is pretty unusual because he can barely speak.
 
They will stop reeling out the World Championship adverts with Mardle now then I presume.
 
Looks like a right weirdo that bloke.
 
IN for the BDO starting now on C4. Yeah, it's rubbish, but it's darts.
 
Lakeside is about a 5 minute drive from my house, and I wouldn't dream of going to watch darts there. Awful standard in the BDO
