James Wade saw off Keegan Brown in a brilliant comeback win and afterwards he spoke to DartsNews.com about his potential Premier League inclusion and how his experience got him through.
He also spoke about his tie with Ryan Joyce in the next round and admitted he’s a great player. ‘He’s a great player and I’ve played him on a few occasions and same as most players players who don’t have a predominant name in the sport, he’s very good’, said Wade.
On whether his experience got him through the match he said that it did but also that he was quite weak.
‘My experience got me through but I was also quite weak so a bit of luck will help me five perent and you’ll see a different James Wade.’
Also on the Premier League, he spoke of how he believes he’s always been good enough but is potentially not as fashionable as other players.
‘In my opinion, I’ve always been good enough for the Premier League. I’ve been there and done it. I don’t want to sound conceited but I’ve won more than most people and I can deal with the Premier League.’
He added: ‘I think I’m good value, I’m perhaps not as fashionable as other players.’

- Am not outraged and as said above i dont like anyone from any country doing it to anyone from any country. Whoever is going for a double should have best of order.Mysstree17-11-2024
- Say what? It happens in other countries; Littler in January - this year (Holland), go and watch the evidence on YouTube. If it is going to be done to English players, then we are more than entitled to dish the same back when players face off in England. When it happened to Littler in Holland in January... where was your outrage then? ABE attitude.MrYnyslas197117-11-2024
- I dont like individuals or crowds trying to put any player off when they are trying to check out, how anyone can think its okay for the crowd to whistle or shout as someone is throwing for a double is beyond me but it does seem to have become part and parcel of the modern game. I no longer play now, darts is as good as dead at a local level round my way but when i did play many years ago, no matter how intense the rivalry you never shouted out or whistled when an opponent from the other team was throwing for a double.Mysstree17-11-2024
- The pundits glossing over the other factor at play in that match. They appear to be somewhat constrained in what they can say publicly.
UndartedWaters16-11-2024 - So, you don't like Littler, then? I was cheering him on, being a fellow Englishman. Honestly, some of us get far too offended nowadays. If you want to see crowd passion... watch a match when German and Dutch players face off... that can be just as bad if not worse for crowd noises. It happens, I have watched and heard Littler being jeered - Dirk van Duijvenbode in Holland, January this year. Where was your outrage then? Yes, I can clearly see what is going on here.MrYnyslas197116-11-2024
