VIDEO: "6,000 people pay good money Rob and you don't care" - Wayne Mardle fumes as Rob Cross turns down 170 chance

On Night 5 of the 2024 Premier League Darts, Rob Cross went down 6-2 in the final against Nathan Aspinall.
Earlier in the night however, a remarkable moment played out in Cross' quarter-final match against Gerwyn Price. Cross quickly gained a 4-0 lead averaging around 110 and had a chance to reel in the big fish, with Price way back on 216.
Cross started with a pair of treble 20s, as Mardle boomed "Do not split, do not split!" over commentary. But then, to the disbelief of Hawaii 501, Cross did not throw for the bull, instead setting up a double for his return to the board. Mardle responded furiously: "Well I have no time for that whatsoever. 6,000 people pay good money Rob and you don't care."
It turned out to be the right choice, however, as Cross won the leg to take a 5-0 lead. Price still won the next leg, but Cross eventually won 6-1.
In the Premier League Darts standings, Cross is in joint second place after five nights of play, six points behind overall leader Michael van Gerwen. Price, on the other hand, is languishing in second bottom with just five points.

- I completely agree with Vincent's comments on "whistlegate". It's great to have someone with Vincent's exprience address this issue, so hopefully clearer and stricter guidlelines can be given to referees, security and members of the crowd. No whistling during throws, and something like: whistlers evicted and fined a hefty sum.
