Should read board

Proper gentleman I've met him always has time for his fans

I was hanging of his every word. Such a pleasure to hear from Bobby.

Was at the Lakeside in 2016 and Bobby done a walkon complete with candelabra! Was the best highlight of the week!!!

I think it was a TV report by Bobby at Lakeside a few years back where he showed how dartboards are made. I always wondered what those veins or cracks were. It's all those biscuits put into a dartboard jig then squashed together. I love being educated. Bobby's an educator. Bobby's a legend.

Never heard anyone talk about the dart board in such detail before. Bobby imparting his knowledge beautifully.

Fair play I could listen to him for ever I’d love to see him on sky

Top man & great interview.. More Bobby George whenever possible please, Live Darts!

Could listen to Bobby George even if I wasn’t interested. Legend.

Always love a Bobby George interview, the man is a genius of the game!

I met Bobby when he was doing a signing down my local, hes such a genuine, straight talking, top bloke.

I met him when he was doing a signing down my local too. He stank of whisky and was really rude to people. He demanded a cheese sandwich from the elderly lady who had volunteered her services free of charge and then sent it back saying it was awful. He played 1 exhibition game and repeatedly mocked the gentleman doing the scoring because he was a bit slow. He then spent the evening poncing free drinks off people who had paid £25 for supper and exhibition tournamnent. After bragging all evening about his cars, his castle and how he despised the sport and was only in it for free money, he left us in an embarrassingly quiet, empty and disappointed bar.

Mr Darts what a great legend and character of the sport. Sir Bobby George.

Well said Bobby, insightful as always.

Bobby has such amazing knowledge of the manufacture of dartboards and I've learnt something new today. I could listen to Bobby all day

Yeah I could listen to Bobby all day and night. He seems like a really genuine, decent sort of bloke. Funny as well.

Looking well bobby. Real interesting to hear about the making of the dart boards.

His knowledge about dart boards is brilliant and so true. You can buy different brand boards for anywhere between £30-£80 and they'll look near enough the same quality out of the box, but no board has the durability of a Winmau Blade 5. The Unicorn Eclipse Pro 2 (PDC standard board) is brilliant but the harder surface means more bounceouts. So players resort to points with ridges in them which ruin the boards by ripping the sisel out. I personally think only smooth points should be allowed in the professional game!

No one interviews better than Bobby George he’s hilarious 😂😂😂😂

Love Bobby George. So much knowledge.

Good to see yer' bobby best wishes for the New Year>>>>

Looks better than I've seen him in ages!! Legend

I have used winmau blade 4 and then tried the unicorn eclipse hd. I quickly went back to the blade 5 board. They last longer and are a much sturdier boards. And yes the new points are tearing the boards up

He's the living legend !! Unforgetable character

Watching the bdo here on euro sport, it’s like an episode of Phoenix nights! Peter Kay would really liven it up. Deta hedman threw a 35 dart leg last night! It’s a liberty to call this world championship. It’s amateur at best. Leaving the lakeside was suicidal

Silly taking it away from the Lakeside, as much as the BDO standards have slipped over recent years the Worlds were still respected and still had a bit of magic about it just because of the sheer tradition of Lakeside, the BDO being the BDO but fucked up the only thing it had going for it and I don't think it will be long until it folds in all honesty.

Bobby is a Legend,

I saw Bobby George in a supermarket in Essex yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn't want to be a idiot and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen cans of beer in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the cans and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
