importantly Darryl Fitton. He does have some experience at Lakeside having played in the tournament last year. He |
played Martin Adams 12 months ago and was unfortunate to lose in a final set decider. |

Darryl Fitton is a quality player. He is ranked 4th in the BDO rankings and won the recent Zviderdvin Masters |
beating Martin Adams in the final. |
| |
Fitton has never produced his best darts in front of the cameras. For such a good player his record at Lakeside is |
poor winning ten matches and losing seven. In his last appearance on TV at the Grand Slam of Darts, Fitton struggled |
with his game, losing to Kirk Shepherd and Steve Maish. He will need to improve today if he is to avoid a 1st Rd exit. |
