Darts – Rushton’s Eyes Light Up!


Peter 62.93% Dave 58.33% Ian 55.34% Steve 48.98% Mike D 45.83%
Papa 41.18% Colin 34.78% Doddy 29.63% Malc 21.43% Fred 00.00%

Nailsworth – what a cracking place for a little darts club eh? And last night four bad boys had a quick fire darts session, so fast we had zipped through seven games by 9.45pm! Mike, Papa, Ian and Peter set about the flipometers to find that Pete and Ian were pitched against Papa and Mike D.

J.A. won the MFD with an excellent throw, and off they went. They had a good start but alas (for them) it didn’t get them the game. In fact they had a pretty rough time of it only managing to clinch one game, which as the mathematicians amongst you will already have worked out means that Ian and Peter bagged six games! The final score line was PI 123567/W4 MP.

There was a whitewash in game three but apart from that there were no walkovers. As much as Ian and I enjoyed the win it has to be said that both Papa and Mike played very well, on a regular night they would have done ok, probably won or drawn. Unfortunately for the opposition the Nailsworth fairy seemed to have sprinkled magic dust all over Pete and Ian (Papa even noted how Ian’s eyes had lit up!) apart from a couple of quiet spells we were pumping trebles like our lives depended on it. We were ‘Cock On’ as Dave would say.

You all know what it is like, if a player is hot, he is hot! If you have two on the same night on the same team you are hard pushed to combat it.

The end result of this was:

Ian and Pete both got MOTM for the night

Chart Changes: Mike dropped a place to 6th position allowing Steve to take 5th Place.

Pete and Ian stayed on for a few singles games and although these don’t affect the stats there were some extra bulls scored after the main match which means the bull wars results were as follows: Peter 5, Ian 3 and Mike1.

Mike and Steve look like they may be battling for position and swapping places for a good while yet, unless one of them has a decisive series of wins. Papa is not far behind them and as we have all seen can have mammoth evenings so they had better both watch out.

Doddy and Colin are still in contention, it remains to be seen if Colin will ever get off his arse and turn up here again! Colin, well?

And..... Don’t Rule out Malc! He is making a double attendance in May and due to his fewer attendances a double win could catapult him up a few places.

So, as you can probably tell I am working my way around to saying... Game On!
