WELL THEY CAME THEY PLAYED AND THEY CONQUERED. WELL NOT QUITE EVERYONE!

BUT CAN THE TWO GARY'S PLAY DARTS. THE ANSWER IS YES THEY CAN AND CAN THEY PUT ON A SHOW THAT HAS TOPPED ANYTHING WE HAVE HAD IN THE PAST YES THEY WERE QUITE SUPERB.

WOULD YOU GO THIS WAY!

38 LEFT =DOUBLE 18 DOUBLE 1

120 LEFT = DOUBLE TOPS DOUBLE TOPS DOUBLE TOPS.

40= LEFT DOUBLE 16 DOUBLE 4

AND YOU THINK YOU HAVE SEEN IT ALL WELL NOT UNTIL YOU SEE THEM PLAY PAIRS WITH NO FLIGHTS IN THEIR DARTS WHAT ELSE WOULD YOU USE BUT DRINKING STRAWS DONT WE ALL!

AND WHAT A PERFORMANCE GARY ROBSON HITTING 5 CONSECITIVE 140'S WHILE USING THE STRAWS EXCEPTIONAL STUFF.

THERE WERE SO MANY GAMES FINISHED ON DOUBLE DOUBLE I LOST COUNT AND TO BE HONEST I WAS JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE .TO BUSY WATCHING THE ENTERTAINMENT TO WRITE IT DOWN. FORGIVE ME.

ON THE NIGHT NO FEWER THAN 23 SINGLES MATCHES WERE PLAYED AND 5 DOUBLES MATCHES AND A TRIPLES YES THEY PLAYED AGAINST THREE PLAYERS WHILE ONLY HAVING TWO THROW'S THEM SELVES.

A TOTAL OF 36 PLAYERS PLAYED YOU WONT SEE THAT VERY OFTEN.

THEY PLAYED GAMES WHERE WHEN SITTING ON A DOUBLE THEY SWITCHED SCORES WITH THEIR OPPONENTS WHO WERE 200 ADRIFT AND STILL WON.

TOP CHECK OUT WAS 140= 60-40-40 BY GARY ANDERSON

TOP CHECK OUT WAS 120  =40-40-40 BY GARY ROBSON

FASTEST LEG OF DARTS ON THE NIGHT WAS A 14 BY GARY ROBSON BUT WHEN YOU CONSIDER THEY WERE UNDER A 100 SO MANY TIMES BY THEIR 12TH DART IT WAS ONLY BECAUSE OF THE WAY THEY WERE FINISHING THAT IT TOOK WELL 15+16+17 DARTS TERRIBLE WHAT. DONT THINK SO !

THEY WERE FAR TO BUSY ENTERTAINING EVERYONE. FROM SIGNING AUTOGRAPHS AND GETTING PICTURES TAKEN AND JUST PLAIN MINGLING WITH THE CROWD

THEY DID LOSE A FEW. NOTABLE WINS WERE BY PETER FROM THE SEVEN OAKS AND WHO CAN FORGET LYDIA'S YOUNG SON ROBERT PLAYING AND WINNING AGAINST GARY ANDERSON THE LOOK ON HIS FACE WAS PRICELESS.

QUITE SIMPLY I WILL SAY AFTER 6 YEARS OF TRYING TO GET THESE EXHIBITIONS RIGHT . IT FINALY HAPPENED AND IT WAS THANKS TO THE MAIN PEOPLE YOU!!!!

CHRIS FORSYTH WHO HAS NOT BEEN WELL RECENTLY BUT TOOK CHARGE OF THE M.C. AND KEPT THE EXHIBITION RUNNING FANTASTICALY SMOOTHLY. TO SCOTTISH OFFICIAL WHO GAVE UP HIS TIME TO MARK ALL 29 GAMES JOHN MCCAW. TO FIN DRUMMOND WHO COLLECTED TICKETS AND WAS THERE IN THE MORNING SETTING UP THE BOARD.
