It’s where I go when I want to feel like prime George Clooney.

Boring boring tables!

That’s pretty good as well. But her arse is better

They were singing ‘feed the scousers’, ‘we pay your benefits’ and then later in the evening cheering scouser Stephen Bunting on.

Been quite a lot of ‘stand up if you hate Tottenham’ so guessing a proportion of Arsenal, Chelsea and West Ham supporters attending.

MVG drops the f-bomb on live TV 😂

Littler next, him and Bunting can’t be worse than Chris Dobey was.

It’s “feed the stands” they were singing, which is the banter response from the “boring tables” to those in the stands.

Don’t know about hammer but if he repeats last night’s performance over Stephen Bunting who averaged over 100, then hard to see him being beaten. Chris Dobey competed for the first three sets last night but after missing three consecutive doubles, sank without trace and never really looked like he believed he could beat MVG. Littler has no such problem because he knocked MVG out last year.

However, MVG has looked seriously impressive and rolled back the years so Sky, PDC and the audience have got the final they wanted after Peter Wright dumped Humphries out.

Not being pedantic but Littler didn’t knock MVG out last year, Scott Williams did.

MVG has a 6-6 record v Littler across all tournaments up until now

Yes, and thank you for correcting. Littler has the recent edge head to head but not much in it bar the World Matchplay first round, Littler’s poorest majors display https://www.skysports.com/darts/news/12040/13283030/luke-littler-vs-michael-van-gerwen-rivalry-reaches-peak-at-world-darts-championship-final

Chris Dobey just didn’t seem like he believed he could win that night and MVG dominated the stage. MVG does have a big advantage of having won the WDC 4 times before, tackling Phil Taylor and peak Peter Wright, so there may be less fear. But Littler has a different mindset even when you take into account his age. 

[Gloucester Saint]

Littler dominating so far but not over yet. MVG can go on a surge. Has to win this set though 1-4 down and 2-2 on legs.

Not really into darts apart from occasionally playing in the pub years ago but watching the final. He is amazing isn’t he. 17 years old, unreal
