James picked up a good point in Newcastle against a very inform Barney, in a game that went one way then the next James showed great character to win the last 2 legs. The Machine hit 4 180s and the biggest one was in the last leg to set a chance of 121 which he narrowly missed but came back and his favorite double ten was there for him
Afterwards James thanked his sponsors and all the fans for their unbelievable support and james will be back in action at Brighton next week. #TeamWade

James drew 6-6 with Stephen Bunting in Birmingham last night but a point wasn’t enough for either player in the end as other results didn’t go the right way.
James started well by taking the opening leg the pair then traded leg, James broke the Bunting throw for the first time in leg 5 but the former world champion broke straight back. Both were then very strong on their own throws as the legs kept going with throw as James finished 62 to lead lead 6-5 and guarantee a point but then missed 3 darts to win allowing Stephen the chance to checkout 120 to grab a point which he took.
After james thanked his sponsors for their continued support this season and paid a big thank you to the crowed and his fan on social media for all the messages of support in the build up to the game #TeamWade
