If it was for the way darts has reformed into a booze-up and singalong, the livings earned by Baxter and co would be a fraction of what they are now.

Don't get me wrong, the idiots who are putting players off purposely on their throw ought to be ejected from arenas. But if it was for these big crowds, sing-songs etc etc, darts wouldn't be what it is today.

I agree mate,I am all for the big crowds and atmosphere.I do think people ought to show respect for the players when throwing though.Booing a player whilst throwing is totally out of order.The singing I am sure players can cope with.

There were large crowds and a fantastic atmosphere in the past before all this Premier League nonsense. People managed to behave then. These weekly events are not taken seriously by anyone except the 8 players. I couldn't really care less who wins each match, the events are spoiled by idiots singing and getting drunk on a weekly basis.

Now I'm not particularly keen on King, but it really is getting out of hand now. It just isn't right to single him out to that degree.

I thought the treatment by the crowd to Mervyn King was a disgrace. I nearly turned it off as it was not nice to hear. I've never heard any player get so much abuse ever.

She's got a cracking pair.

What about the dark haired beauty with Phil Taylor ?

She's got the same chin. I wouldn't be surprised if it's a wig.

Completely agree. It isn't warranted at all.

Half these numpties wouldn`t recognise a good dart player from ten paces.King is a superb player.I think the fact he looks miserable when throwing may have something to do with it.I wish he could overcome it,like Manley,another player who didn`t deserve it.

It's a PDC crowd, what do you expect.

As long as they have 20 pints down their neck and another 10 waiting to be drank, they don't give a toss about what's happening on stage.

PDC need to act on it imo or it will drive viewers and fans away.
