    Justin hood incredible performance. Fair play to Josh Rock great sportsmanship. Without knowing the draw love him and searle in the final. 
    It could happen!

    Quarter final line-up:

    Luke Littler v Krzysztof Ratajski
    Ryan Searle v Jonny Clayton


    Luke Humphries/Kevin Doets v Charlie Manby/Gian Van Veen
    Michael Van Gerwen/Gary Anderson v Justin Hood

    Thought MVG came across as a bigger prick claiming ‘he wasn’t in a match’. If the crowd give it then they can expect some back, but disrespecting your opponent looks worse imo.

    From what I’ve seen from Littler when he’s on tv, is that he’s nervous and he’s not the brightest lad, so think he just leads with emotion at times like that.
    Both are total pricks but the vast majority of top athletes in solo sports are. There's a level of arrogance required at the top level that boxers/tennis players/darts players/swimmers/golfers will have. 

    Sports need characters so I'm all for it. I find MvG's interviews hilarious at times, just no fucks given

    Humphries swept aside 5-1 by Van Veen. Van Veen will take some beating on this form. As much as I like Gary Anderson a Littler / Van Veen final would be a fantastic contest.

    No real booing tonight from what I heard and Sky didn't do an onstage interview after, just had him in the studio bit.

    Sky and matchroom need to protect their cash cow

    Darts was popular enough before Littler

    I never used to watch darts but have got into it recently. Seems I’m not the only one.

    Darts has been popular for years, but Littler has elevated it to a whole new level that's for sure.

    Sky/Matchroon therefore obviously want to protect him somewhat

    a Littler / Van Veen final would be very good

    Back there again this evening. Should be a cracking night especially the Anderson v Van Veen game.

    Nice one @shirty5 !!

    For my money the semi-finals night is the best session of the tournament to attend, not that I've done it since the Circus Tavern.

    Sadly an average in the low 90s just isn't going to trouble Littler. Shame as Searle started so well in the first two sets
