Die Dartswelt trauert um die Ikone Andy Fordham, der am Donnerstag im Alter von 59 Jahren verstorben ist.
Sobald die Nachricht von seinem Tod durchsickerte, gab es Reaktionen von Dart-Ligen, alten Rivalen und Dartspielern der neuen Generation. Fordham wurde besonders für seinen Charakter gelobt. The Viking wurde nicht umsonst der " Held des Volkes" genannt.
''Ein großartiger Mann mit einem großen Herzen'', schrieb Michael van Gerwen auf Twitter. ''Ein großartiger Mensch, sowohl als Dartspieler als auch außerhalb des Sports'', charakterisierte Simon Whitlock.
Steve Beaton, ein Angehöriger der gleichen Generation, reagierte ebenfalls mit großer Traurigkeit. "Wir sind sehr traurig über den Tod von Andy Fordham. Er war nicht nur ein guter Freund, sondern auch eine Sportlegende, die ich über viele Jahre hinweg kannte. Meine Gedanken sind bei Jenny (Fordhams Frau, Anm. d. Red.) und seiner Familie.''

Lako08-11-2024 - 🧐GRANDIOS was Mike de Decker heute geleistet hat!!! Er ist ein Nachwuchs-Talent aus Belgien und hat das geschafft,was unsere Deutschen Spieler,SCHINDLER,Clemens & CO noch nicht verbuchen konnten,weil meist die Nerven blank lagen wenn sie unter Bedrängnis geraten sind,trotz einer Führung.Die hat man auf Deutscher Seite immer verspielt.🤔 GLÜCKWUNSCH an Mike de Decker.👏👏👏
