General Darts Thread

Can't wait, Littler up on the first day? I assumed it might start in the day time, but great if it's evening only means I can watch it all.

Littler penultimate match vs Rob Cross, hope he's got his throwing boots on!

Beauty, excited. I hope its not a let down! Littler has a good record vs Cross.

Curious to see how starting on doubles for each leg affects things, I didn't realise this was even a thing until recently.

Seems like its going to make a nine that much harder though, which is unfortunate.
 
One from the vault in prep for tomorrows major, what a moment this was. Commentators completely missed MVG hitting 144, but both Littler and MVG acknowledged it with a fist pump. Vintage Premier League. :cry:
