Special guest at biggest match in darts

Another world title holder has been added to the ‘Night of Champions’ darts exhibition at the Cleveland Arms pub in Wolverhampton.

Keith Deller, who won the 1983 world championship, will be a special guest for the biggest match in darts today on September 14.

Reigning PDC title holder Adrian Lewis takes on BDO counterpart Martin Adams in a best of 19, first to 10 leg contest, to decide the modern-day ‘undisputed’ world champion.

Deller manages Lewis and will lead ‘Jackpot’ to the oche to face ‘Wolfie’ Adams on the night.

‘The Milky Bar Kid’ was the youngest-ever world champion after his shock win over the much-fancied Eric Bristow 28 years ago, before the sport divided into the PDC and BDO factions in 1994.

Lewis and Adams will also play six punters each on the night, with 11 drawn at random by their ticket numbers and the other spot to be auctioned on the night.

There will also be the opportunity for fans to have their pictures taken with the world champions and their trophies.

Tickets are still available for the night, priced at £15 each or four for £50, and can be purchased by calling 01902 451 021.

What a strange two weeks it has been since our last game. I haven’t looked over my neighbour’s fence with as much interest since Pamela Anderson moved in next door and regularly used her trampoline, writes Albion blogger Jarrod Hill.
