PDCWednesday, 26 August 2020 at 08:00
Michael van Gerwen has taken over the lead in the Premier League Darts from Glen Durrant after Night Seven in Milton Keynes.
Van Gerwen himself won 7-2 against Rob Cross, while Durrant shared the spoils with Peter Wright. They switched positions in the Premier League Darts standings as a result. On Wednesday evening they can put each other behind, as they will meet each other on Night Eight.
Nathan Aspinall kept his place in the top four by beating Gerwyn Price 7-4, who therefore still sits on the seventh place. Price saw Daryl Gurney come closer, with his win over Chris Dobey. Cross stands between the Northern Irishman and the Welshman with five points.
Wright is still the number five, but saw Gary Anderson go over Michael Smith in the standings. The Scotsman defeated Smith in a spectacular opener of the Premier League Darts resumption.

- 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
