Loosen up man! It's a phrase that was aimed at the now defunct BDO at the Lakeside and is a euphemism for bad darts.

Littler only needs to turn up and hold his nerve and he can go all the way now.

Nobody in his way that's a threat, except himself.

Yep, he only has to beat one more World Champion rather than two more.

Stop posting nonsense, you obviously don’t know anything about darts, so enjoy watching it without posting garbage.

Littler is astonishing, isn’t he? I’m old enough to remember 17 year old Boris Becker winning Wimbledon in 1985, and Luke’s absolute fearlessness reminds me of that. Apart from Boris diving around like a goalkeeper in a penalty shootout, of course…

Luke is scoring so heavily that nobody he has played so far can stay with him long enough to put pressure on him to hit his doubles. Darts is all about hitting doubles under pressure, so it will be interesting to see how he responds if anyone can put him under any pressure. No sign of that so far.

Nobody. Just bored of your inane comments sucking the fun out of what has always been a fab thread. Could you just go away maybe?

Differing views not permitted?

We all have to agree all the time? But partisan and small minded isn't it?

Perhaps just ignore my comments if you don't agree? Don't engage?

As far as I can tell, I've broken no posting rules.

Williams, bit of a knob?
Yep, dropped himself in it earlier last week when he beat German player Martin Schindler with a tweet about 2 World Wars and 1 World Cup. Had to come out and apologise saying it was a mistake lol

I disagree that we are 'witnessing something special" the other night regarding Littler. Tonight I say he only has himself to beat to win the world title now MvG is out and I'm apparently trolling?

He has nobody to fear now. He can beat Williams and I don't think there's anyone left in he can't beat if he holds his nerve.

One thing that struck me today is that he said he can read the board. He knows what he has left, he knows how to get there and knows where his opponent is. I don't see him asking what he's scored or what's left. Chizzy was asking that with 61 left. He should know that, and how to check out.

Stop posting gibberish, you are making yourself look a complete clown, Off course Littler can win the championship but it isn’t a case off just holding his nerve.

MVG has been the greatest player off the last 10 years, he has smashed the averages, won hundreds of tournaments and millions of prize money but has only won 3 world Championships. When according to you all he had to do was hold his nerve and he would have won all 10.

Hundreds of tournaments?

153 actually.

And you are either incredibly stupid or missing my point spectacularly. I have never said all he had to do was to hold his nerve.

I'll put it simply for you...

There isn't another threat left in the current competition that can challenge Luke Littler except for his own nerve.

Maybe I’m incredibly stupid as well, who knows.

But the way I read that is you claim that you never said all he needs to do is hold his nerve.

Then you finish off by saying all he needs to do is hold his nerve?

I’m confused ??
