    I was there 2 weeks ago for the youth challenge, and even for that 60-70 people it was way too overcrowded. I am from Hungary, so I heard bad things about the venue before, but never expected this bad. Safe to say though the other venues for WDF events are fine. When I saw you are coming I knew it’s gonna be an interesting video.

    Torromilinos festival was exactly the same this year very very rude when asking how long to wait. Winners marked yes you heard correctly winners marked so some people were marking and being called on at the same time. The adc blows them all out the water for set up and how well ran it is.

    Great video Matt, such a shame that WDF aren't scouting these places out before hand. I think if they did they wouldn't use that location. Good to see what you go through as a WDF player though. 🤞🏼 You keep that momentum going and the confidence stays and keep building those ranking points 👍🏼🎯

    A “reputable” organization like the WDF (I used that term loosely) should be embarrassed and find it totally unacceptable for such bush league conditions. More so for someone like yourself, a former PDC pro, who knows what proper playing conditions should be. Watch out for those bar sharks 🦈 🍺

    Hi Mathew ! First congratulations for your coming back to life gamewise, . Second, I would like to ask a question to which you might have previously answered in one of your videos, so let me know whether you did so ans give me some hint on how to find it :) regarding a rule : I've always thought that if you walked over the oche, your throw was considered as being finished (unless to pick up a not thrown on purpose dart). But I've seen Ritchie Burnett "falling" over the oche after having thrown a dart,, and regain his place behind the oche and throw what was going to be the match winning dart. Is it just a PDC rule ? Or is it the same in Non PDC ? Thanks !
