    Littler looking so much more solid tonight compared to when he faced Joyce

    I like Aspinall but his behaviour was kinda odd. Kept stepping up and then resetting. Plus he was acting like he'd won a competition to play against Littler. He was far too happy/respectful for Littler

    Yeah, he seemed fine against Pikachu but guess it flared up since

    Had to stay away from here last night, been watching on catch up.

    Yes @MrOneLung, turns out I'm not the first to have asked our man for a photo - but he doesn’t like any fuss, we only got the pic because 'my boy wanted one'. The security guy who took the photo we had a good chat with too, turned out to be our man's roomie, he said he'll give him some stick later about his walk on fanbase. Our man has been on the PDC tour for a couple of years, hopefully he'll get the call up again when the Premier League comes round.

    @oohaahmortimer I spotted that swat in the Littler walk on, he's back!

    As for the darts, wow, totally enthralling, what a treat - couldn't have asked for two better matches with so much on the line. MVG and Price did what they do; pleased Dobey got over the line and really felt for Rydz, what a performance!

    All very routine tonight, so far.

    Bunting wasting opportunities which Littler gladly pounces on.

    All too friendly for me as well with the fist bumping after every set!

    Same with Aspinall last night, all too matey for me as well. This isn't an exhibition match

    I've watched every game and am going to miss/have to record the final because we're going to see Only Fools and Horses tomorrow  :s

    I've been enjoying the darts, but the "boring, boring tables" chant has been more boring than the tables themselves. Proper overdone

    Bunting just looked very average to my inexperienced eye against Littler there

    I think in all honesty it's just a realisation that they can't actually live with him.

    And wasn't as if Bunting was crap, averaged over 100, and still only won a set.

    Don't know about that.  Bunting averaged over 100 & lost 6-1

    Littler was just incredible

    Equally as boring as Tottenham get battered everywhere they go and Kolo Kolo Kolo ...

    Bunting's finishing was very poor. At the least should have been 4-2 going into the 7th set if not 3-3. Bunting threw away two sets

    Watching the Dobey v Price game in the packed away pub in Crawley was quality. Some bloke threw a 180 in the pub as well!
    I've been in a game with a 180 - thrown by the other bloke, unfortunately.  Best I've ever done is 140.

    I like all the fist bumping and acknowledgement. Much better than the Gerwyn Price/Anderson carry on a few years back.

    Only thrown a couple of 180's in our dartboard in the canteen when i worked at Rosyth Dockyard. The guy i was playing on one of those occasions threw another 2 in whilst mine were still in the board.

    Can you settle an argument for me please? The question is, which comedian does Peter Wright look like the most. I say Andy Parsons, my son says Bill Bailey.

    This perfectly illustrates the point i made the other day regarding Taylor dominating for years. Bunting's average was higher than in 7 of Taylor's final wins and it won him 1 set in a semi final. The levels now are so high.

    Taylors success will not be repeated as there is far more players that are high quality compared to when he was at his peak. I hope Littler wins but think MVG might win this one.

    The breadth of talent now is much higher, as you say. Taylor's main strength was his stature in the game which intimidated opponents, and he won many games before a dart was thrown. MVG was the same when he first started to dominate.
    Yes I've also got a feeling MVG will win. Littler has to start well - MVG can get rattled when he's losing and it doesn't help his game.

    Be interesting to see how littler would react should he go a couple of sets down.
    The thing is, I don’t see that happening.
