Re: Matchplay Changes for 2019

Problem gambling has been in the news quite a lot recently, only last week they were talking about the number of children who gamble. Maybe it’s time for the PDC to look at other title sponsors and start building relationships before the inevitable advertising ban. Ladbrokes Betfred Betfair Unibet ...

Re: World Championship: Women’s Qualifiers 17 Nov Dusseldorf, 25 Nov Milton Keynes

Because only 4 or 5 players have realistic chance of coming through the qualifiers. When you have events that sponsors want you to go to. Or events that qualify them to the only thing that’s guaranteed a year later, Lakeside. What is Hearn wanting? He can say the same about why x amount of the top ...

Re: PDC Grand Slam of Darts- 10th-18th November 2018- Wolverhampton

It's really sad that the PDC monkeys can't act as professionally as the BDO boys..........brings the game into disrepute. It's true what they say, money does curupt...........Shameful behaviour. It's a shame that the BDO players can't seem to accept losing when outplayed and always look for an excu...

Re: 2019 Q-School

Some will do Q school and just mess around so they can play Challenge Tour I don’t think they will mess around but the pressure is off. You can still have a decent enough season if you don’t make it through, see Menzies Hughes and Rajaski I think the big thing for duzza was he was scared of fluffin...

Re: Time to scrap BDO from Grand Slam

If your Tommy Thompson you think the PDC should be paying a premium for the honour of having BDO members compete ! I don’t think the Grand Slam of Darts does the BDO any favours at all, yes it does the 8 selected players a favour, as they get a payday, but what do the BDO gain as a company, the PDC...

With the worlds and the Euro Qschool overlapping I wonder how many are going to have a really bad game in the 2nd round.

Although he played good darts, at this point in time, this is NOT good for the BDO, you can't approach a TV company for your World Championship saying that your latest major winner is a secondary tour PDC player rather than someone average Joe may of heard of, like Adams, Hankey or Fordham, who stil...
