Have any of you ever been to the darts? What's it like? Been many times mate and it's brilliant but I'm in the camp that I go for the darts not just for a booze up. If you're thinking of going then I recommend the World Matchplay at Blackpool. A great venue for watching darts and you can obv stay for a night or two and enjoy the beach and bars etc.

Went to Premier League in 2008.
Had a great time, although it's a little pricey, and they only sell crap lager. Would love to go again.

The matches in PDC are full of too many "breaks" for adverts on sky if you ask me. And I love the "Lets play darts" cry at the beginning of BDO matches.

Anyone watching the BDO final? People still watch that rubbish? The standard has been awful.

Unlike football and the cash that's been pumped in at the top level, the investment the PDC and Sky have put into darts has had nothing but a positive effect. Just look how lame the coverage and standard is of the Lakeside! The BDO refused to move with the times which is why all the best players cleared off. The BDO are still stuck in the dark ages.

The BDO are a bunch of bigots. The way they treated Barney was truly shocking.

Isn't that just what the orignial premier league teams said in 1992? It may be that good has come of the PDC but IMO the original motivation was because the 'best' players who formed the PDC were, like their premiership counterparts, after a lisence to print money.
