One of my favorites, just so watchable playing & talking. Best wishes to him.
one of my all time favourite players. genuine as a two pence. snatch throw like Jocky. genuine bloke
The best of luck to Ritchie, been through some tough times, glad to see he's out the other side atm. Hope things go well for him on his comeback. Seems like a sound fella.
He was deadly on the treble 20 in the mid 90s 3 lakeside finals. Great player arguably the best Welsh player ever 👍
not anymore
the 1995 final against Barney is still one of my best memories of the game. would love to see him back to his best
Will never happen, drugs and dartitis has ruined him sadly.
Favourite player when was a kid. Played with heart on his sleeve
Legend! Would be great to see him back on the big stage 🎯
Great to see and hear that Ritchie 's in a great place! Keep it up Champ! 👍💪

Good to see him back, hope things go well for him.
Easy to cheer for this guy. No bs. Tells it like it is whether it’s good, bad or ugly.
I really like Richie Burnett and liked him a lot during the 90s - very good rivalry with Barney when the BDO picked up well and became a proper rival organisation to its off-shoot and ultimate successor PDC/WDC.
Fair play hope he comes back well... What's sad is he was playing really well up untill his ban
I hated him in the BDO days, but met him in Blackpool 97 and he was a very cool guy, I started to support him as he was BDO player in the PDC and he made the semi final that year. I like watching him play and love to see him back him in major tournaments, the kids coming through now have no personality. A big fan now !!!
Good t see Ritchie back

Well done Ritchie we're all proud of you in Wales for owning your mistakes! and moving forward!
Best wishes to you butt👍
nico cacci Richie*
great honesty
Richie was my favourite back in the BDO days.
Best regards to a true character. The making of pot noodles from water in the radiator is just pure legend!
That's BULLSHIT.. it NEVER happened
He’s a character. Darts needs blokes like Richie..
Fair play at least he’s honest 👍🏻👍🏻
Whats all the noise in back ground lol sounds like Nottinghill Carnival going past lol
Top notch in his day this lad
Hope he'll get his form back and we'll sea him on TV soon 🎯
Legend.
Nice t see him talk about his ban and not skipping around it shoots from the hip Ritchie band I'd say he's not d only one in d pdc who used the devil's dandruff
Tomas Morrissey van gerwen loves speed
More than speed lad

Sure that home tour when they were throwing in their own homes, the amount of dilated pupils and chattering teeth going on
Happy 75th birthday Richie.
very honest interview.fair play to him .sometimes life can kick you in the nuts
Spoken honestly there fella
Seen him a few weeks ago in Pyle rugby club
Top man
Does he still play in the spazzy darts or is he in the PDC now.
Who was the mighty boosh character - “two mick jaggers and I was off my chopsss”??
Does he ever smile to show he enjoys the game
Nope
Looks the double of ma uncle 🤣🤣always called him Ritchie instead of uncle 🤣🤣 but he was a class player in the 90s and all the best to him
The way he speaks is as if he was a made up character. Actually him as a whole is like a made up character. But u can only f*ckin love him!!!😆🍻
I hope he doesn’t have anymore depression 🙏
He looks in his 72
Richie looks well..........
72
Good to see Bootlegger admitting he has a problem. Always the first step.
He's off his Barnet man, he pain free with the drugs in the woods
Still looks coked up haha
Real character, still looking like he's on cocaine, hope he is well though.
Not being funny who hasn’t done abit of Coke in their time, all my friends are in uni becoming teachers lawyers doctors and I’ve seen them all do it
Most people haven't.
Yeah but he did a shit load for years man most days probably it's a bit different having a couple lines now and then
@@vinny42042 Yeah but it was an over reaching comment that made taking coke like taking paracetamol or a piece of fruit - a dangerous comment.
Robert Ryan I literally know 1 person who hasn’t (my age) I went to a catholic private school and every person who I know that went to university has done it atleast once, it makes me laugh how they have a bar backstage where everyone can drink( alcohol causes more deaths a year than any other of the drugs put together in the UK)
Robert Ryan I’m in Canada and majority of the people I know have at least tried it. Then again we are the second largest consumer of cocaine in the world so it doesn’t surprise me either.
Burnett looks a frail of a man now.
Could been one of the best if he didn’t do coke
Ricky was the best for c.1 Year no doubt, its Interesting that he cited Tennis Elbow.
Tennis elbow should be placed in the yips bag because that's where it belongs.
Utter belief in what you are convinced you used to do is your downfall, a syndrome of the self inflicted. You are abetted by the commentators especially ex pros who gladly pontificate and help infect the aspiring and the trouble ridden top-pros. Each and everyone of them want to unravel this enigma.
I worked it out years ago and informed the fact to all darts sites and personages.
Dully, I was ridiculed, I promised I would get a video done, but I rennaged and gladly so. For you can't see it and can't feel it.
When Brexit is done I may reconsider.
Jesus wept, could his jaw be flapping anymore? Coked off his swede
