It needs two players in a high profile, televised match to just put down their darts and walk off stage.
If it happens again in another match, the players in that one do the same.
Before long, even the worst of the vexed up idiots will figure out that paying for a ticket and not getting to watch any darts isn't giving them a good night out.
As long as the PDC/BDO condone it with silence and inaction, it's not going to stop.
Cracking post mate, well said. It's probably the only action that will change things now, it's getting to a point where something needs to be done because these idiots are spoiling good quality matches, I'm convinced and I may be a bit biased but I really believe King would've nailed that double had the boos not wrung out last night. It's getting worse by the tournament, even Taylor has had the boos this year. That King v Wade match deserved a finish befitting the best match of the tournament so far, instead the idiots did all they could to put Wade off.
It doesn't seem like the governing bodies of PDC will do anything so it may now be down to players to take action against them.

Something like that isn't to far away from happening imo. It's why I wont go to any more tournaments as these people have totally spoilt the occasion for me. It's bad enough on TV now.
Shame to hear that mate and I can fully see where you're coming from, this is why something needs to be sooner rather than later otherwise the genuine fans will not go and switch off. I won't let the idiots spoil it for me, I still go the Echo Arena for the PL, Blackpool in July and the World Championships each year but the longer it goes on the more genuine darts fans will stop.
