Why? It's an artificial aid to make their eyesight better. 

Cheating in other words.

95% of the time it hampers a players action, hence why some, who almost can't see (Ryan Searle for example) refuse to wear them.

Darts for the purists.

No artificial substances or aids allowed. Water, home grown veg for sustinance is acceptable.

Any meat eaten must be home reared.

All clothing must be home made from home reared produce. 🤣

I remember being messed up on eccies one night, got home early in the morning and chucked on the TV. It still blows my mind now but I couldn't stop watching. This is a thing;

 

Good on them. I loved it. Tough wank though.

I remember seeing wheelchair tennis for the first time when I was on acid. Couldn't stop laughing. One guy would serve, and the other guy would watch it fly past before he could even move. I suppose you had to be there.

So they aren't cheating.

I'm missing your point.

Folk with long arms should be banned from darts (thalidomide darts would be good to watch) 

No long arms is a natural thing. If one turned up with arm extenders they'd get banned.

It's a test of eyesight(amongst other things) and specs are unnatural objects that improve eyesight.

Have you noticed that there are hardly any darts players that wear glasses or lenses who win anything?

They are not and you know this you silly cunt, plenty of players have changed to glasses and regressed in the sport.

You just claimed that them wearing glasses was a form of cheating, you smooth brained fud.

It is a form of cheating. 

You're not making sense here. Are you claiming glasses makes their eyesight worse?

Gary Anderson being the obvious one.

Yip, Taylor tried it for a spell as well and was poor.

[maryhilldon]

What about footballers wearing contacts, like Leighton? Is that cheating?

I gave an example of players wearing them and being worse than when they didn't wear them.  If it was that simple all of the players would be wearing glasses, fuck me there are about 8 played in the top 64 that legally can't drive yet refuse to wear glasses because it fucks up their action.

Darts 😂

Fairest sport in the world, unless a player puts glasses on, of course.

You're not making sense. Some CHOOSE not to wear them? Not cheating, some CHOOSE to wear them, cheating. 

I don't get how one affects the other tbh. 

It'd be like saying one golfer doesn't use a long putter because it doesn't suit him so they should be legal for every golfer. 

It's an artificial aid that gives some, not all, darts players an advantage.

[Parklife]

is the wearing of contacts cheating too?

What about in other sports, say snooker. Is Dennis Taylor the biggest cheat to ever hold a cue?

You cunts will find a way to argue with each other about fucking anything.
