It was the 1st tournament after the split so the top 16 weren't in it and all of the new players were just coming through. Also Bobby George was playing with a broken back. Also the doubles and trebles were half the size of the ones nowadays.
@@craigmains6471 the averages in both organisations weren't that high really. You had the games where they went up but in general, this was darts. John Part won the PDC title also and his averages went up as did everyone elses as the years went on. The BDO then went onto stagnate and the averages didn't get much better than this barring a few.
Bobby George was wearing a steel back support because he literally was playing with a broken back against doctors advise. He had titanium screws & plates fittied soon after this
It wasn't just Bobby's injured back that held him back, as I recall he also had a real marathon of a semi final so he was probably mentally drained as well. But, Bobby being Bobby, he never gave up.
you're right. In my younger days I copied his action and the darts definitely didn't go where I wanted them. RvB is another one you cannot copy. I would also copy Ronnie Baxter's throw with mixed results and fits of laughter from those watching, now I know why lol.
Yeah, i know what you mean! I knew there was talk during the week about some big names missing. I watched a bit of the 1991,1992& 1993-finals but was more interested in snooker. Read a lot about the reason behind the split...
I love watching old darts matches, but it’s so maddening how so many from the early generation of pros were reluctant to switch to the 19s. Like at 10:25, how are you still throwing at the 20s there
26:45 George misses a dart for the first set. 49:30 George misses a dart for the third set. The match is remembered as a walkover for Part (obviously), yet it might have all been different if one or both of those had gone in. In darts the difference between winning and losing is measured in millimeters.
Was almost as one sided though with Priestley winning 6-1. To be fair to Bobby here, he was playing with a broken back, if that hadn't been the case he would have gave Part a much tougher game.

I've been watching darts for about a decade. So i know who all these guys are but I don't recognise any of them.. at least not this version of them. John Part looks like a completely different person.
With these averages they wouldn't even win the Women's World Final today. Part was lucky in two of his Final wins in that he faced mugs like George and Shepherd. However he did beat Taylor in the other one.
When he came to rye to play his darts in th pipes i asked for his autograph for my wife who was in hospital and said if she's not here he would not sign it.even that she could of died.got to say was my wifes favorite not now though.as far as i am concerned he is a waste of space.he is obviously only in it for the money.
John Played his part for sure.
Ba-dum tsssss
Almost three decades later, I find myself still shouting for Bobby to win!
remember watching this live back in the day and was gutted that Bobby didnt win - what a player John Part was to become though
John Part wiped the floor with Bobby George here, total demolition job

Averages of 80 and 82, amazing how much the game has moved on since then.

Best moment is when Part blows out Bobbys candles at the start 😂
That was a proper move
Oh dear Bobby George walking on to Gary glitter
Glitter hadn’t even got a computer then to be fair.
С Рождеством Христовым!
Does Bobby have something against the triple 19? When he's got two darts blocking on the T20, he still throws his third at it.
Cuz he loves the lipstick 💋
Cause his math was terrible 😂
He says in his book it was painful to lean down for the lower section of the board
His back is broken immense pain
Mad seeing Steve Beaton that young
God John part is so slim.
Nearly 30 years ago in fairness.
John played the dartboard not his opponent. Big difference.
Bobby had broken back ....everyone knows that ...
@@krishnan-resurrection714 convenient to have an excuse eh
@@AcerPrime do a little bit of research ..
He played somone with a broken back it should of been postponed
Compared to today’s darts it’s almost painful how slow Bobby was… 🫣
A legend in his own right ❤️
Great music in break
I Remember this.. Same year as PDC first appears on SKY
The bobby george action was so bizarre to see someone throw at this level like that was quite something

It’s mad that he basically throws across his face
This was the first darts final I ever saw. and assumed these were the world's best, completely unaware of the split. Anyone else?

This was also my first complete Final i watched!
Meanwhile in the PDC, Taylor was wrecking everyone's shit...
In fairness John Part was certainly up there among the best. A winner in both BDO and PDC.
@@LOLMAN9538Taylor was getting wrecked 6-1 by Dennis the menace

This match was known as 'The Slaughter'
Why?
@@Barnaby_bo Six. Nil. That’s why.
Bob was playing with a snapped vertebrae that day ..effectively a broken back ...-you try it !!!
@@krishnan-resurrection714 excuses excuses..
@@Hogbearerbobby back was literally broken
Somes it up with the bdo a magnum of champagne 🍾 as well just like bullseye 🎯
Looking at Bobby's face, you can tell he was in severe pain the whole match from the broken back.
It should of been postponed

Bobby was badly injured that game
Suffered some emotional damage during the match as well!
@@AcerPrimeSarcasm?
@@AcerPrimenah from playing a world final with a broken back
Man everyone so young
Cmon Bobby, there was only going to be one winner. If you're in Gary's gang. 🤣
Yowza-wowza, this was a downright massacre.
26:45 George misses a dart for the first set.
49:30 George misses a dart for the third set.

Not a chance at all.
Bobbys back was literally broken he couldn't move properly to hit the doubles
Why is Bobby married to Lily Allen?
I don’t know why…
Taylor Priestley final in PDC was in a different league standard wise to this!
Was almost as one sided though with Priestley winning 6-1.
To be fair to Bobby here, he was playing with a broken back, if that hadn't been the case he would have gave Part a much tougher game.
Aye Taylors massive 85 average, legendary
Walking on to garry glitter😂😂
do you wanna be in my gang
Bobby George the best player to never win the worlds.
Alongside Mike Gregory, Ronnie Baxter, Peter Manley, and a few others

Before he started wearing a water bed shirt
He did it last night against Magnus Carlssen? @ 1:15:18
Bobby made a come back in the semi final
Steve Copley?
He had to drop glitters song for obvious reasons 😂
It's a pity that Bobby George did not have no marijuana oil for his bad back . Natural medicine.. Bobby George absolutely brilliant character .💯🇯🇲🇬🇧👍
The averages aren’t anywhere near todays
Neither are the treble and double sizes
The Gary glitter of darts 🤣
Gary Glitter walk on music 😬😆
I’m sure oul Bobby regrets using Glitter soundtrack as an Entrance music today 🙈🤢😂
The top women today would have beaten them soundly!
Have you had the jab?
Go home😂
Is Bobby pregnant here !!!
Bobbys totally embarrassing to watch
Playing with a broken back
Darth maple 😂😂
Part shot a good match
With these averages they wouldn't even win the Women's World Final today. Part was lucky in two of his Final wins in that he faced mugs like George and Shepherd. However he did beat Taylor in the other one.
Bobby had a broken back so he was lucky
Small trebles and doubles and Bobby with a broken back. Don't forget Taylor only averaged 85 in the pdc final that year
When he came to rye to play his darts in th pipes i asked for his autograph for my wife who was in hospital and said if she's not here he would not sign it.even that she could of died.got to say was my wifes favorite not now though.as far as i am concerned he is a waste of space.he is obviously only in it for the money.
