The Scot and two-time champion hit back at the idea being floated of the most prestigious tournament in the sport moving to the Middle East

The Scot loves now being a darling of the London venue. PDC chiefs can’t keep up with demand for tickets at the 3,500-capacity venue and a switch to a bigger base is being mooted. But Anderson said: “Nah, it should stay where it is. I mean, there’s talk of going to Dubai. Can you imagine our crowds going across to Dubai? No. I don’t think it would go down well. Yes, you need bigger crowds, but it works, doesn’t it? It just works.

Anderson used to get hounded by the Ally Pally crowds, now he gets lauded. He added: “When I started I used to get dog’s abuse. Still get a wee bit now and again with Scotland getting battered. But it’s changed over the years, they’ve just started to actually give me a wee bit support now.
