Re: Covid-19 Open 2020 15-22 March

Plus Paula has admitted she is holding booking money for North Cyprus herself so no worries of any refund issues should it not go ahead.. Surely that should cause alarm bells to ring. Exactly... This is what Paula posted This is not a Bdo comp Its not cancelled its in Oct. Hopefully it will go ahea...

Re: BDO 2020 the end ??

Anyways, after getting 17 death treats over Xmas and New Years (that was when I 100% made my mind up to resign as Chairman and I informed all 3 of the other directors) and feeling like I’d given my best and got nothing but hassle and crap for it, oh and a few people telling me if i needed their help...

NO ONE.

Re: Covid-19 Open 2020 15-22 March

If this was a BDO run comp/holiday, then why is Des still involved? After all they have no financial interest in it do they? ............. Des says he is dealing with refunds because if it went through the BDO then nobody would get anything.. Which is odd because he will not be refunding out of his...

Re: Des Jacklin resigns

So he says Lakeside only contributed the 329k prize fund... Well to be fair that's a pretty big contribution..... I didn't see anybody contributing anything at the 02..and going forward they would have to fund the venue hire as well as prize fund and broadcasting and everything else.... Unbelievable...

Re: 2020 BDO WDT

This virus could save the BDO for at least a year. With no TV majors to run then it's a year of not spending anything :) also I do wonder if the virus will be blamed as a reason the BDO goes bust (especially if the BDO have to cancel one event and lose money on that). Des will find any and every ex...

Well other than part of the second session, that was dire. Clayton was perhaps the player of the tournament before today but get him on the big stage he crumbles. Lucky to win this afternoon, no chance tonight. At least next match should be tasty then the final whoever Price plays. So you have cate...

Cross isn't a dark horse really as a player who has won the World Championship, the World Matchplay, the European Championship and was in this UK Open final last year should never be a dark horse..
