Wolfie on the oche tonight...

Deepings darts ace Martin 'Wolfie' Adams steps up to the oche again tonight to throw for a place in the semi-finals of the BDO World Darts Championship.

As today's local papers reflect, England darts captain Wolfie needs to up his game to beat sixth-seed Gary Robson after his edge-of-the-seat (or should I say seat-of-the-pants) first and second round performances.

Unfortunately, winning the World Championship two years ago, none of our locals papers seem to know where Wolfie lives.

The Stamford Mercury,Bourne Local,and Peterborough Evening Telegraph all again inaccurately report today that Martin is from Market Deeping.

As I pointed out earlier this week, he actually lives round the corner, right here in Deeping St James...

Meanwhile, Wolfie's view of this year's tournament is regularly updated on the Daily Mail's exclusive Wolfie blog. There's also a cracking picture of 'Howling Wolfie'.

Wolfie wins again...

Deepings darts ace Martin Wolfie Adams won a place through to the last eight of the World Championship on Wednesday night - but there was only a few seconds of coverage of the match on BBC2's broadcast from the Lakeside.

So I guess it couldn't have been such an entertaining and exciting match as his shaky opener on Monday!

UPDATE: Perhaps the reason Wolfie's win didn't feature big in tonight's coverage was a later match which saw reigning world champion Mark Webster sensationally knocked out by John 'Boy' Walton. It was Webster who took the crown last year from Wolfie...

So it's goodnight Mark Webster. And goodnight John Boy!
