Should Phil Taylor be knighted?

[barmyarmy]

I'm with Joe on this. I had never heard of him till this thread. Then again I find darts about as interesting as watching paint dry.

Then it's definitely a sport I should play you at (along with snooker) to even things up.
Back on topic, even as someone who both plays and watches darts I reiterate: no way.

I have a bad reputation for having way too much luck at pool, so I expect it will apply to snooker as well But you can probably thrash me at darts, so I need to get an extra few shots to make it fair and make us even for handicaps

But before the Olypmics who many of us had heard of Chris Hoy? Not many.

Wow, seems myself and Lee have a fan

Interesting that, the username of the person seems familiar. I can't seem to think of anyone who visits PlanetCricket and also supports Droyslden though. Any ideas?

Busted.

Credit Lee for the detective work, he browses that site, and actually posted in that thread and informed me, and I thought it was best posted here

LMAO!

Phil Taylor has done enough to be knighted. He's owned Darts for god knows how many years. Yeah there are good competitors like Barneveld, but Taylor is miles better. I watch Darts from time to time and Taylor is the best by a long shot.

Dont you think the Queen gives away far too many "gongs" I reckon over 50% of the English population has been given a gong for one miniscule thing or another,I read that that EVERY SINGLE member of the UK Olympic team has been awarded the MBE,and the Cyclist Hoy has been given a KNIGHTHOOD (for christs sake)for getting 3 gold medals in Beijing,...our Stephie Rice also one 3 golds and got scaresly a mention afterwards...to me the biggest laugh was in 2005 when Collinwood got a gong after England "won????" the ashes and I believe he had scored less than 20 runs.

50% is an incredible exaggeration!

Collingwood shouldn't have been given the MBE.

Why, though did you write "won????"? We won, fair and square, 2-1.

 

[Leicester Fox]

Haha well Paul Collingwood MBE absolutely dicked on your boys in the CBS and basically said fearsome tweak off you inbred convicts.

We love ya Colly. Now there's a man who deserves a knighthood.

No he shouldn't. It's freakin darts!

I guess you're forgetting a little incident I like to call "Billy Bowden giving Kasprowicz out when he wasn't out thus losing us the Old Trafford test and ultimately the series-gate."
