Netflix have revealed the 24-player field for the "Beat Luke Littler" special next week.From left to right per https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/40776095/luke-littler-opponents-netflix-event-revealed-fallon-sherrock/:>Back Row: Mitchell Lawrie (2025 Lakeside finalist), Sonny Johal, Lauren Bloomfield (19th on the Women's Series this year), Jasper Scarrott (Modus jobber), Zac Spain (45th in the 2026 Australian Darts Association rankings), Will Kemp, Zac Griffiths>Middle Row: Taylon Forrester, David Wawrzewski (another Modus jobber), Tony Cole, Katie Sheldon (two-time Women's World Matchplay quarter-finalist), Brett Todd, Theodore Wallich, Makinley Cooper-Johnson, Fallon Sherrock (WOMAN!!!!!!!!!), Ashley Coleman (yet another Modus jobber)>Front Row: Mark Pooke (played PDC 20 years ago), Jayden Walker (youngest ever WDF senior event winner at 14), Bhav Patel (former Indian PDC Worlds qualifier), Pwyll ap Llŷr Edwards, Kasey Smith, Jarod Becker (34th on the German Next Gen rankings this year), Jacob Gwynne (98th on the 2026 Challenge Tour rankings)In short: lol.
>>158293222The utter state of this.
>>158293250Only ones I can even see getting close are Lawrie and maybe Walker. The rest are utter wank.Special mention for Tony Cole:>Tony Cole (Top Cat, 39, South Wales): A bank business adviser who has never played darts against another person – Luke Littler would be his first-ever opponent.What a spastic.
>>158293222>PUB DART PLAYERSyeah fuck offand sherrock can get fucked as well, big up mentalist
>>158293222Missed one off the bottom row between Walker and Patel: Pearse Mackle. No, I'd never heard of him either.
>>158293222...why?
>What a wonderful place Dortmund is>Shows grim 60s mid-rises
Menzies strongmind today. I believe.
>>158293485Quite amazed Hopp is set to keep his Tour Card per DartsRankings, I didn't realise he'd done well enough to do that.

People will deny it but Bunting was very popular on here until about 18 months ago
>>158293884Bit longer ago than that.
>>158293884>guy starts getting very popular>does a lot more media as a result>reveals himself to be a gigantic knobhead>people start disliking himMany such cases. It’s not just here that’s gone off him
i hate how they name eventsOh where is this event played>machineseeker European championshiphmm machineseeker sounds like a strange name for a town. Just say the fucking town name I am not going to buy a machineseeker whatever that is. Nor some elf safety shoes

>>158293997The Blade X at it again
>>158293940His Lakeside "title" was such a fraudulent title. He only won because his side of the draw was filled with literal nonces like Tony Eccles unlike the other side which was filled with Lakeside legends like Wolfie, Scotty Dog, Duzza, Ross the Boss, Silverback O'Shea, Geert de Vos, Scotty 2 Hotty, Chuck Norris, Paul Hogan etc.
>>158294014>His Lakeside "title" was such a fraudulent title.He was by far and away the strongest player in the BDO at the time. Won the World Masters months before without dropping a set.>this insightful commentary from Flopp saying Bunting is Scouse and supports Liverpool
>>158294014>His Lakeside "title" was such a fraudulent titleFor me it's the Paddy Power World Darts Championship, the best title.>>158294081>Bunting is Scouse and supports LiverpoolNice trivia. I never heard that before. Haxi Mopp is an true expert :3
Noppy niggas...

Time for Mad Cunt to shit himself
Cammy kino incoming
Big up Triple ZBig up the left handers
Haven't been following arrers this year, is this fat mental case still bucking Fallon?
>>158294296They split ages back
>>158294296No, he’s got a new bird that looks a bit like Fallon but fitter
>>158294268I want blood!
>>158294331
>>158294331Any pics? I also quite fancy Fallon desu. Something about her, can see her downing pints of strongbow and then sucking you off in the pub toilets. Looks the type.
>>158294376she's cute
>>158294376Bang tidy.
>Jobberveld
>>158294376Mad cunt has done well for himself.
>>158294376Why can't I find a girl like that, I'm fat and mental
>>158294424>I'm fat and mentalYou need to be fat and mental on TV, though.
>>158294424You’re not a rich darts player (presumably).
>that Cammy roar
>>158294424Are you the fun, exciting mental like the kind of guy who would smash his fist into a shard of metal on national TV, or are you the sad and depressing mental?
>>158294424He’s rich. Last 2 years he’s got just under 400k in prize money, add in all his sponsors and exbos and Cammy’s doing very well for himself
Quality from Mad Cunt. Now trying to snog one of the markers.>both finalists from Sunday are out already
>Sane Cammy
>3 matches, 3 Dutch lossesClogbros be seething.

Dross getting twatted
Good evening lads, late to the party. I see Dork crumbled under the incredible pressure of playing Woody, and Noppert should have removed Bunting put shat the bed. And Gezzy is not messing around.
>>158294795CAN'T ROUSE THE LOUSE
>>158294795You missed a Woody 9: https://twitter.com/OfficialPDC/status/2113323185525465464Unfortunately it was so boring they didn't bother pinning the post to the top of their feed
Gezzy finishing the match in style.>>158294812German Woody fan club when?>>158294822>You missed a Woody 9Dammit, just noticed after reading the thread. Mah boi hits a nine and I wasn't there, feels bad mang.

Webby making a good point about Kimbo after he got Merk'd at the Worlds, I thought he was finished
>I now remember Richard "Northy/Lionheart" NorthJobber Searle jobbing again.
Searle is so bald, how did I not notice until now
>>158295395He does the middle part trick
>>158295395Just saw it, oof.Searle looking bewildered, and no wonder.
Searles what the FUCK is happening
KIMBOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>158295425Kimbo on another level entirely there, have not seen that from him on the big stage for a long long time.
Searles...
Rooting for Kim
>2026>getting raped by Kimbo

That second quarter now:>Menzies v Price (wew)>Bunting v Kim (double wew)
An omen: no player since van Gerwen in 2018(!) has won their first match the year after they won the title.>nonce v chudLove the darts
Noncefinger on the rise tonight
The center of mass on this lad
Gilding is such a comfy watch
>>158295486Oh no... Chudbros, I don't feel so good.Will /ourguy/ get noncefingered?
>Aviation themed shirtBased autist
>>158295506I call it the "Asstit curse" seeing as Nicho was the last player to lose to a defending European champion. Do have to wonder how much the change from Red Dragon to Winmau will affect Chud.>immediate 180Maybe it won't.
New Chud shirt because he’s changed sponsors from RedDragon to WinmauYou’d assume that means he’ll be forced to change his darts soon. Maybe after the worlds
>Gilding losing that legAppalling
Get hopp off comms ASAP
>>158295478>Possible Gezzy vs KimboTriple wew.
>>158295527Love seeing it.>>158295586He's your problem now. lmao
>>158295586>someone at the PDC genuinely thought he would be a good fit for English commentary
Apparently no returning European champion has won a game since Wade in 2018
>>158295645Wade got raped by Clayton the next year.
Chudchuds...
BAM
>we got a game here! three threehighlight of hopp comms so far
The Euro Champion Roll of Horror:>2019: Wade L 0-6 Clayton>2020: Cross L 3-6 Kleermaker>2021: Wright L 3-6 Hempel>2022: Cross L 5-6 Wade>2023: R. Smith L 3-6 Pietreczko>2024: Wright L 0-6 Wattimena>2025: Edhouse didn't even fucking qualify
>>158295701Based Chadhouse didn't even bother.
>>158295701Shithouse has earned a whopping £43k this year, and is down 22 places now his Euro win money is off. With him also losing his GS money he’s got an outside chance of losing his card
>>158295701THE CURSE HAS BEEN CHUD'D
Based van Chud.
Triple Z goneWadey goneNoncefinger goneNo reason to live anymore desu desu
CHUD>CHUDCHUD>CHUDCHUD>CHUDCHUD>CHUDCHUD>CHUDCHUD>CHUDCHUD>CHUDWill he break the curse this weekend?
>>158295764>Will he break the curse this weekend?That was the curse broken.
>>158295810I mean his curse of not winning shit this year.
>Smudger losing that leg
>>158295880His section of the draw:>R. Smith/Sedlacek v Heta>van Veen v WoodhouseI think it depends if he turns up over the longer format. Especially if he faces Price in the semi.
>>158295898>EC 25 winner>WC 26 runner upMaybe the longer format suits him better.Let's see. It'll be a comfy weekend either way.
>Dan Dawson admitting the PDC sold barely anything ticket-wise tonight compared to tomorrow
How is this valet looking motherfucker number one seed?
Just beat this amerilad. I'm getting better day by day, ranked matches really improved my game
>>158295987Based.Don't forget to post when you qualify for the ET next year.
>>158295968Earned the most money on the European Tour over the year.This match has been a mess.
Hard to believe Smudger won a TV event last month. Abysmal stuff.
>>158295987Nice one lad, hope he was fucking fuming lmfao
>>158296074Where the fuck did that dart go?
>>158296008>>158296077Thanks lads, in another game I had a nice 75 checkout but for some reason the app didnt save it - went 2, T15 and D14.
>>158296230>2, T15 and D14Nice save!
Lovely checkout
Just held an average of 60 for about 10 minutes, proud of myself. Was throwing 20s at will but fuck me it's cold today.>>158296230>went 2, T15 and D14Johnny fucking Clayton over here. What darts do you have? I use Amberjacks with no changes, haven't had them long enough to trash the flights yet but I have some 19mm k-flexes on the way.
>>158317988Correction, Amberjack Pros.
