Well added.Phil Taylor has admitted he is ashamed of his actions following his semi-final victory over Raymond van Barneveld in the World Darts Championship at Alexandra Palace.
The pair were involved in an angry confrontation on stage after 15-time world champion Taylor had beaten his old rival 6-4.
Taylor rounded on a bemused Van Barneveld when the pair shook hands and they then exchanged words and gestures before leaving the stage separately. He told Sky Sports News he since said sorry to the Dutchman.
"It's upset me of course it has. To put the record straight, Raymond is a very strong lad and when he shook my hand and pulled me he hurt me a little bit," he said.
"That was all it was and I reacted, to be honest with you, disgracefully. I am ashamed of myself and I feel terrible.
"I have texted Raymond and I have spoken to him and there is nothing else I can do really, only apologise for it. It will never happen again.
"Whatever the PDC decide, chuck the book at me, they can do whatever they want to do - but that's what happened.
"I'm ashamed because I really like Raymond. He loves me to bits, and quite rightly - I'm the greatest darts player of all time. That's why I am really hurt about it because we both think a lot about each other. But we get over it and we move on."
Taylor even admitted the incident on Sunday night had left him questioning his future in the sport, adding: "At the minute, I could just walk away tomorrow night and retire - go out on top really.
"I'm a bit disillusioned about everything. Obviously I'm not feeling very well and I need a break.
"To be honest with you I don't care about darts at the minute. I know I'm in the final, but I don't feel excited or chuffed about it. I feel very, very down at the minute."
I know he's not everyone's cup of tea but he didn't seem overly proud of his actions last night and only had good things to say about Barney.
I think you might be using any stick you can find to beat the portly Stoke arrers merchant.I don't need a lift, I need ammunition

He's the Ferguson of darts.

Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.
May the Lord bless this post.

I enjoyed the booing when he only got 140 at the beginning of the leg after the near miss.
