"Gezzy... I'm coming for you!" - James Wade sends out warning ahead of Swiss Darts Trophy showdown
PDCSaturday, 28 September 2024 at 12:00
James Wade has qualified for the second round of the 2024 Swiss Darts Trophy without many problems. 'The Machine' was 6-3 too strong for Dimitri Van den Bergh in the opening round and will now face off against the fourth-seeded Gerwyn Price in the next round.
"He didn't play how he can and I certainly didn't play how I can," Wade reflected non plussed afterwards. "But I won six of them and he didn't! So I was just the luckier of the two players."
James Wade in action
As mentioned, Wade now takes on former world champion Gerwyn Price in the second round. "Gezzy... I'm coming for you!" Wade laughs jokingly. "He's probably one of the very best dart players to have played the game and unfortunately, a close friend (laughs again). I've got a lot of respect for him, I wouldn't speak that way about many other players."
The winner of the duel between Wade and Price will take on the winner of the match between Chris Dobey and Wessel Nijman at the last sixteen.

- 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
- It happens. Remember, anyone who has watched German and Dutch players in matches - their respective countries will have seen/heard just as bad jeering (if not worse). Taylor and MVG are two prime examples of professionals who are able to cope with the crowds mentally and not take it personally. This is not just an English crowd problem, FFS.MrYnyslas197116-11-2024
- Was watching an old World Masters final the other day between Eric Bristow and John Lowe, the crowd respect for both players on throw was first class, not a sound. You can imagine now the idiots who were whistling on De Deckers throw proudly boasting about it on social media. I blame the PDC to a certain extent though doubt they really care as they win regardless of which player wins or loses.Mysstree16-11-2024
- @UndartedWaters I totally agree with your thoughts! I totally respect Kirk but in this instance I was disappointed with his lack of crowd control. I even turned to my husband and said "Could you imagine this happening if Russ Bray was the referee tonight? At least there would have been a crowd admonishment- Ladies and Gentleman please." I so felt for Mike DeDecker...MamaVenus15-11-2024
