    well each to their own and I enjoy a game of darts as much as the next bloke, but to me that's what it is, a game and as a spectacle right up there with the national watching paint dry championships.

    I think it's great entertainment. Played in front of big crowds. And a high level of skill as anyone has played it will admit if they are honest. Not easy to be consistently accurate like they are.

    Just like Cricket its a pass time, but unlike cricket its exciting and a quick pace.

    My bets are

    £10 each way on Lewis at 20/1,
    £40 on Taylor at 1/1
    £40 on Lewis to hit most 180s at 7/4

    You get less at some sports events too. 2k is a decent turnout, you can argue otherwise though as is your right.
