Apparently Darts is, though, or they wouldn't be bringing back "ogling 20 year olds" as an integral part of the sport, would they.

Darts is not like that any more, its a very highly paid sport Surprised at the fat shaming QB

Where did I say it's not highly paid?

It can be highly popular and very well funded, whilst still being aimed at sad gammons who want to see some boobies before they watch other highly-paid gammons playing a pub sport over the top of their beer tin.

These things are not mutually exclusive.

Have you always been a snob? Enjoying a beer is not the end of the world you know, the Darts crowd seem more into dressing up than drinking though

Not all Darts players are Gammons.

You're being really bad for stereotyping.

QB is one of the worst, but only stereotypes white men, given he is one himself its all rather odd self sabotage

Tbf Luke Littler has made the Sport be more mainstream than ever before.

I don't know what's caused the decision to be reversed tbh.

Bit of an odd decision really given that darts popularity has only increased in recent years so it's not like cancelling the walk on girls did that any harm

This is only for the seniors tour though it seems, not for any of the main tournaments

Apparently the darts ladies are delighted to get their jobs back, they say they bring glamour and fun to the walk on....who am I to argue, if they dont care and they are getting well paid for it, go for it, its a free choice, its not like they are being pimped out

@Quantum Boy

Shall we stop the glamorous assistants as well, like rachel or carol from countdown. Shall we stop the glamorous weather girls also? Cause you can class it as girls with their boobs out all you want but that's not what it is at all.. its 2 glamorous ladies, dressed in nice dresses, walking in front of the darts player to lead them onto the stage. They will have a sponsors banner draped over their shoulders. No tits on show, no twerking, and no fanny thrusts either...you shouldnt have a problem with this, you see more on the streets during pride or notting hill where all the gays and black perverts can ogle away without criticism from prudish men.

Also where on earth have you got the idea that I'm "OK with" the dicks-on-parade nonsense that's completely taken over (and ruined) Pride events?

Bet you insist your mrs wears a full burkha when she goes out, cause there is nothing wrong with this look.

There' nothing wrong with the dresses. There's something fundamentally wrong with needlessly exhibiting young women in a sport aimed at middle-aged men. This should not be a hard concept to grasp but I won't pretend why some people "don't get it". Too busy with their hand in their pants watching women young enough to be their daughters drag out the old Darts Farts for literally no reason whatsoever that anyone can give other than that "they're nice for men to look at".



Can we please stop pretending to not know what we're looking at here? Come on now . Don't be so f'ing silly.
