Nacho Fernandez Jersey . Burning rivalries often boil over in the heat of battle and Lewis and Van Gerwen exchanged angry
words after England defeated the Netherlands in last Sundays final in
Frankfurt.This was just the latest fall-out in front of the cameras as players
regularly lose their cool in the world of darts... Michael van Gerwen v Peter
Wright, 2015 Premier League Michael van Gerwen and Peter Wright traded angry
words after draw World No 1 Van Gerwen could not conceal his irritation after he
was held to a 6-6 draw by Wright on a Premier League trip to Exeter.In a brash
display of showmanship, Wright had played to the crowd before throwing his dart
at double 20, only to miss his intended target. Grow up you big baby! Its about
entertaining a crowd. Peter Wright Van Gerwen would win the leg, but made a
costly miss himself shortly afterwards and vented his frustration at Snakebite
after battling back to win the final leg and a share of the points. What that
guy does has nothing to do with darts, Van Gerwen said. He does it on purpose.
Hes not a professional.Wright responded: Grow up you big baby! Its about
entertaining a crowd.Phil Taylor v Raymond van Barneveld, 2012 World
Championship Taylor and Van Barneveld briefly became embroiled in a physical
altercation Taylor admitted he was ashamed after his semi-final over Van
Barneveld was overshadowed by a heated post-match argument.After landing his
winning dart, Taylor exchanged a strong handshake with Van Barneveld that
sparked a brief bout of pushing and shoving. I am ashamed of myself and I feel
terrible. Phil Taylor Speaking afterwards, Taylor told Sky Sports: Its 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.That was all it was
and I reacted, to be honest with you, disgracefully. I am ashamed of myself and
I feel terrible.Justin Pipe v Kevin Painter, 2012 World Grand Prix Justin Pipe
infuriated Kevin Painter with his frenzied celebration in Dublin Pipe also
expressed remorse after his wild celebrations drew an angry reaction from
Painter in Dublin.The Taunton man, who is a former boxer, punched the air
repeatedly in delight after his quarter-final win, leaving Painter to wait for
the customary post-match hand shake. Painter was far from amused with Pipes
impromptu display of gymnastics An enraged Painter patted Pipe strongly on the
back of the head and issued an angry rebuke, but the West Country player ignored
his opponents displeasure and treated the crowd to his trademark break dance
celebration.In the aftermath of his victory, Pipe used social media to convey an
apology to Painter for his raucous behaviour.Paul Nicholson v Phil Taylor, 2011
UK Open Paul Nicholsons winning gesture aggravated Phil Taylor Branded the Bad
Boy of darts, Nicholson lived up to his notoriety at the end of an exciting
encounter with Taylor in the last-16.Nicholson completed a 9-8 win and then
appeared to mockingly bid farewell to Taylor, waving to the crowd as The Power
went to collect his equipment. Nicholson pleaded his innocence after fierce
criticism from The Power Taylor later described Nicholsons conduct as
disrespectful, but The Asset insisted his gesture should not have been viewed as
an antagonistic send-off.Adrian Lewis v Peter Manley, 2006 World Championship

off stage during their bad-tempered quarter-final at the Circus Tavern.Lewis had

Lewis at the Circus Tavern Harsh words were exchanged after Lewis complained to
