A true darts hero guaranteed to hit every double
ALAN Soutar – Arbroath fan, firefighter and the 50th best darts player in the world – was a terrific guest on Off The Ball last Saturday.
After the show, he told us that, despite the image of his sport being cleaned up in recent years, he still drinks TEN Jack Daniel’s & Cokes before he throws his first dart in a match!
He then presumably looks at the two boards and hopes he hits the right one…
Staying with sport, it’s time for the Player of the Year awards and I can tell you that supporters of all 42 senior clubs in Scotland have voted for St Johnstone player Shaun Rooney after the big man’s equaliser at Dens Park stopped Mark McGhee from going naked.
Meanwhile, Clyde FC ended their 28-year stint at
Broadwood Stadium with a thumping 5-0 home defeat to Airdrie. As one grumpy Bully Wee fan apparently said on the way out: “I’ll no’ be back!”
