Love the green brackets holding the board up 😀

I love this, it’s from 20 years before I was born but it’s amazing

Absolutely brilliant,many thanks for uploading,this is as enjoyable as anything today.

This is great! Thanks for posting! I have seen these clips before but not on YT, I think it was on some foreign site but I cant remember where now, but they had a few clips from NOTW. I wish they would bring this competition back or one like it! :)

look at that, the guy is smooking, how he can do that. cool..!!

Are those brass darts with plastic flights? And love how he's throwing with a cigarette in his mouth

thanks so much for uploading.

Great video. Looks like they are throwing on an oak board. Every now and then you can see the water squeeze out from around where the dart point enters the board. I threw on an oak board during a league match and it is definitely interesting to say the least.

Elm board, I preferred throwing on an Elm board. Only the tip of the point stuck in and left more space for the rest of the dart. We all used brass darts then.

Excellent upload

The days when you got a cheer for hitting a ton.

Hi S Mcque. Firstly, great that you posted this footage, thank you. I was wondering, do you have (or know of where I could get hold of) the matches from the round before the QF's from '74? I'm not too sure if they were classed as 'prelims' but the match I'm specifically looking for is Paul Gosling vs John Moore. Thanks.

Who wants a suit to throw darts ….love it 😀

Some crowd at it wow

45 or so years ago... how many on stage are still alive now I wonder...?

Thank you for that 😅

This dart game will never lift off..

I wonder what these players would make of today's modern game where if you weren't going out in five visits with the throw and four visits against you were going home!

Wow. Those outfits. And the way they throw looks also weird.

20:06 Going for the 20s first on 119, deary me.

State of board.the wires on it are all over the shop.

That's too many haha

Back when smoking was cool as fck

Brass barrels, fat wire staple boards while shooting in a tie or sweater with a cigarette hanging out of your mouth.......the days of old when men were real men.

17:08 Really reminds me of Lorraine Winstanley. Um, no offence.

What's that dartboard

Actually see better darts thrown in a Monday night league game nowadays,but we aren't throwing from 9 ft and with brass darts or a crowd that size.

Great crowd just cheering not singing the same moronic songs on loop like it is now.

You haven’t a clue mate. One of the greatest commentators ever, Dave Lanning. Called darts right up until 2010s. He is heritage.
