You're going to get to see rather a lot of Ilagan this afternoon if these two keep this dross up.

Well it might sell tickets to the friends and family of these players, which is suddenly very important, apparently.

Re: The now Unofficial and Unsanctioned BDO "Worlds" Tickets 2020 Updates

You're welcome. I'm not yet convinced the new guy is Robson though. if he wasnt he would have denied it by now Possibly. I just thought that whilst every one of Robson's gimmicks were utter shite, they at least showed signs of him having given them some thought. The new fella just seems to be doing...

Re: The now Unofficial and Unsanctioned BDO "Worlds" Tickets 2020 Updates

I'm more interested to know how you can equate working 80-90 hours a week when you have been in Tenerife sunning it up for a week ? and part of that laid up in hospital ? Work doesn't stop because you are on holiday. Welcome to the year 2019 where emails and mobile phones exist. I am just saying th...

Work doesn't stop because you are on holiday. Welcome to the year 2019 where emails and mobile phones exist. I am just saying that Jacklin inherited a situation that anyone would struggle to handle. I'm not defending the BDO or its current administration as such. I just don't understand why so many...

You'll probably just get sentenced to being on the receiving end of empty threats from Jacklin junior on social media.

Re: The now Unofficial and Unsanctioned BDO "Worlds" Tickets 2020 Updates

Oh, I agree the most likely scenario is he's doing what he can with what he's got to work with, and given how little that is, you can't blame him for just going through the motions.

I just thought I'd throw my little conspiracy theory out there for a laugh.

Re: The now Unofficial and Unsanctioned BDO "Worlds" Tickets 2020 Updates

So we're all in agreement that Wayne's promotional efforts so far have been a little, shall we say, lacklustre. There is another way of looking at this. I'm in no way suggesting this is what I think has happened, only that it's a possibility. Could this be a brilliant example of revenge being a dish...

Two whole tables set aside for family and friends of the players who haven't paid a penny to be there?

Re: The now Unofficial and Unsanctioned BDO "Worlds" Tickets 2020 Updates

I like posting on fanatics. Some would have a bit of a cry and get defensive. Now even the die hards are criticising what's happening. Paul is off the fence. This idea that Pauly was ever on the fence was invented by Pauly the moment he realised that he was very much on the wrong side of the fence.

Re: The now Unofficial and Unsanctioned BDO "Worlds" Tickets 2020 Updates

He's carved out a nice line for himself promoting well-run exbos featuring household name players. He agreed to help the BDO out, which was very nice if a little naive of him in the circumstances, but has probably realised that the more he is associated with this total clusterfuck, the greater the c...

Re: BDO tournaments no longer recognised by WDF and BDO relegated to Associate Member

Depending on the exact structure of the O2 contract he potential has or had significant personal risk in committing to the tickets going on sale as it could be deemed as agreeing to something that had a material risk of leading to insolvency. Also not hard to spin that he had listened to the member...

Why would Potter say no to it then? Not as if he will have other stuff booked in at short notice, and its probably his biggest money spinner of the year. Nah, cant buy for a minute that the Big Ego was on his knees begging. The conversation did happen. Bob said no because they were asking for insan...

Let's give him the benefit of the doubt.

It's always possible he "knows a lot about what has been going on" and is making his mind up based on that.
It's possible that what he knows would "make us flip" or something.

fekkin hell, grow up...... “ In my estimation it feels like the BDO are trying to introduce a strategy to become self-supporting in trying to get ourselves into a position of stability, but we are not allowed to do that ? It just feels like every day is another battle with someone trying to kill th...
