Robbie and Bobby
Robbie 'The Treble Maker' Savage
Robbie Savage is a Welsh football pundit and former player.
He is a huge fan of darts and goes as often as he can to watch the PDC at Alexandra Palace.
Going to Lakeside, let alone playing there, has been on Robbie’s wish list for a long time and for him is up there with going to a Wimbledon final and a Formula 1 race.
Robbie says he is extremely competitive, possibly too competitive sometimes and describes himself as an awful loser.
Robbie concedes he is known as being a mouthy football player and plans to show respect to the opposition when he is up at the oche. But at the same time he thinks winding people up is funny.
Bobby 'King of Bling' George
Bobby George is a darts legend, widely recognised as one of the sport’s most charismatic and colourful characters, known for his extravagant entrances, love of flashy jewellery and larger than life personality.
He has taken part in 15 BDO World Championships. His best ever finishes were as runner up in 1980, when he lost to Eric Bristow in the final, and 1994, when he lost out to John Part.
Bobby only started playing darts at the age of 30. The first time he played was when a friend of his was one man down for his pub darts team, and talked Bobby into playing. One year later he turned pro.
Traditionally Bobby makes his way to the oche holding a candelabra with a jewel incrusted crown on his head.
