Wel jammer dat er weinig emotie bij zit bij Jelle & vriendin. Ik had het wel geweten als ik zou hebben gewonnen. Dat-ie het publiek invloog was dan wel weer okee.

Dat komt wel als ze thuis zijn, als er niemand bij is, dan gaan ze een feestje bouwen ofzo.

Het maakt niet uit wat er gebeurt, hij blijft droog voor zich uitkijken.

De eigenaar van JelleKlaassen.nl heet misschien echt zo, of het is echt een goedkope poging om van die naam te profiteren.

Klaasen preserves Crafty Cockney's record

Young gun has final word to snatch the world title

Michael Phillips at Frimley Green Monday January 16, 2006 - The Guardian

The 21-year-old Jelle Klaasen took the World Professional Darts Championship last night by beating his fellow Dutchman Raymond van Barneveld 7-5, and in the process spoiled a script that had a touch of Hollywood about it. Van Barneveld had been seeking his fifth world title and with it a share of the record held by the Englishman he acknowledges as his "hero" - Eric Bristow, aka The Crafty Cockney, the man who was the face of darts during its boom in the early 1980s but whose career encapsulated the rancorous split in the game.

The fact that Bristow returned to the stage last night to wish his old Dutch mate luck - unsuccessfully as it turned out - may have all the elements of a sappy sports movie. But it might see the start of some lucrative fence-mending right at a time when darts feels there is a big audience out there just waiting to be tapped.
Twenty years ago, Bristow was the toast of the Lakeside. He had just won a fifth title and he was the face of darts, but there were twists and turns around the corner. Six years later, commercialism had split the sport and the formation of the Professional Darts Corporation saw Bristow, Phil "The Power" Taylor and other top players leave the British Darts Organisation.

While such a breakaway was never going to affect darts like it has boxing, with so many different titles at stake, its legacy was just as acrimonious.

But last night, moments before the first all-Dutch final, peace broke out as Bristow returned to the stage where he made his name. At first it was claimed that The Crafty Cockney would only attend, at the request of Barneveld, for a £1,000 fee. But in the end money lost out to sentimentality as Bristow returned after a request from Barneveld's wife Silvia.

Bristow made friends with the BDO and he was greeted as rapturously as any player here all week. The Crafty Cockney might be one of the television faces of the PDC and, while he did not play in its event this year when Taylor won his 13th world title, Bristow was never far away from the Circus Tavern. In the end, though, Bristow decided he could not let an old friend down as he tried to grab a share of his record with a fifth triumph.

His presence here had taken some special pleading from Silvia Barneveld. Bristow, 48, who was the champion five times between in 1980 and 1986, said after speaking to her: "It was the woman's touch which changed my mind. I want to be there." Mrs Barneveld explained: "He is Raymond's hero and Eric knows that."

While those among the 2,000-strong crowd at the Lakeside last night might not have been aware of the dispute, Bristow was given a standing ovation when he was wafted to the stage with the same fanfare of smoke which greeted the finallists.

Robert Holmes, the BDO's media man, said: "Olly Croft, the chief executive, was keen for Eric to come to the Lakeside. When Eric was in his pomp Olly treated him like a son - and although they have not spoken for 13 years since the split, he wanted to extend the hand of friendship."

When Bristow addressed the crowd he quipped: "It's just the same as it has always been - but there are quite a few more people dressed in orange."

Not so surprising. Two hours before the doors opened, the queue snaked around the car park of the Lakeside complex. Only one colour was visible and in the Netherlands, a TV audience of six million was expected, around a third of the population.

While the phenomenally popular Barneveld would attract many of those, the arrival of young Klaasen this week has left the organisers excited in anticipation of how many new young players across the world will now want to start the sport.

Klaasen is dubbed The Matador - "Because I always hit the bull" - and he lived up to his trade name in his surprising run from 100-1 outside to champion.

After the champagne is drunk and the sweeping up is started, today business discussions are likely to begin to set up a unification-style match of the PDC and BDO world champions. Two years ago, when Taylor met Andy Fordham, the match was halted when the BDO title holder was forced to quit with heat exhaustion - but it lasted long enough to show it was a television hit.

That match was shown on pay-for-view and organisers are keen to cash in on the new audience that darts has found in the past three weeks. While there has been renewed speculation of Barneveld joining the PDC, the BDO would not take it lying down. The purse in the PDC event for the world champion is £100,000, which was £40,000 more than for last night's final.
