    I've played against Stephen a couple of times about 12/13 years ago. Was always a nice lad but was serious for the level we were playing, could always tell he'd go all the way. I think it was his Dad who ran our Tuesday night darts league, great memories of that. Brilliant to see Stephen doing so well.

  • @tomg3833
    @tomg3833 3 года назад +4

    Dunno who said but here's a quote to live by. When I was 20, I worried what people thought about me. When I got to 40, I learnt not to care. When I got to 60, I realised that they hadn't even been thinking about me in the first place.
    In summary, giving a shit what people think about you is the biggest waste of time in life. Only care about the opinions of people who love you unconditionally as no one else matters.

    Here's the only player to never defend his BDO title, he chose to run to the PDC for money rather than do so, I'm happy to say since he pocketed his £300 grand from the BDO in 2014 he hasn't won a damm thing since joining the PDC and I hope that continues

    • @richardcarey1988
      @richardcarey1988 3 года назад

      Yep, BDO going great guns right now. I’m sure he’d far rather have no world championship and no winnings, versus the £100k he won for getting to the PDC semi finals. Simple fact is best players want to play against the best, and waiting a year to do so would mean passing up an opportunity with PDC he may not have been given a year later.
