Darts – Bad Backed Boys Darts... Nurse!



The bad boys started arriving and as they clambered up the steps to the hut I couldn’t help but notice a couple of them were hobbling. Yes folks, half the world might be being struck down by Mexican Swine Flu, but here in Nailsworth the Bad Boys Darts Club is being laid low by bad backs!

Both Doddy and Papa were suffering and going ‘oooh’ and ‘ahhh’ so I decided we would have a new spin on team selection for the night, Each team would comprise of one bad backed player and two (allegedly) healthy players. Thus, after some flips the teams were: Papa, CM and Inspector Nutting ‘v’ Doddy, Peter and Dave.

Pete, Dave and Doddy managed to take first blood but then Bad Papa, B&B Mike and Stan the Man romped the second game and took the third. A shocked and awed PDD took the fourth, however the fifth went to CMJP. PDD managed to equalise on the sixth, the decider was a clear victory to CMJP.

Both teams had a couple of decisive victories, but the rest were very close. One game was close to being a total draw, with both teams on the same score and a good chance of parity on the bulls.

The evening was immensely enjoyable, every bad boy trying their hardest to play the darts that would turn the tide on the opposition, highly competitive and fun.

Notable events: Mr Fruin really is turning in to Bad Papa, after my nailing of the bullseye he announced that I ‘could offer him a pink one’. I was very worried, it sounded like he would accept!

Bull Wars: plenty of bull action tonight, 13 in total! Papa 3, Peter 3, CM 2, Dave 2, Doddy 2, John 1

Chart Changes: John goes up one place to fourth position, pushing yours truly down to fifth spot.

Despite having a win Papa dropped by 0.05% so no headway towards Ian was made, on the other hand the gap hasn’t really widened either! John raised his score by just over 0.5% Peter dropped 0.5% Dave dropped 0.09% Success for Doddy, he gains a smidgen under 2% even with a bad back!

May promises to be exciting darts with more changes possible... Game on!
