Just stating facts, Braddy. There are none so blind as those who will not see.

The event a matter of weeks away and players don't even know if they're playing. Imagine the seethin' from you lot if the boot was on the other foot.

If you take out the players, their family and their friends, then you don’t have much left. Poor poor show from the so called ‘fanatics’. Masters will be worse True. But Frooty will pitch up claiming that 2m people attended whilst billions watched on streams. You're just over exaggerating now.

You could be right. Hall holds 520 and it was packed. Could have been 400+ easily.

Strength in depth. The conveyor belt keeps churning them out.

Seriously. Martin Shaw's attempts get worse by the day. I still te member him kissing up yo Feel the Prowler at that exbo on YouTube.

So this is the final entry list. Due to incompetence of the highest order Gunge and his team have been laid off. (They should have been on the blower to check if a seating plan would be available). Counting will now be done by Oche and Moongoose. I trust their honest assessment of ticket sales atte...

Paul Booth was brilliant and the way the callers read out some of the scores was just superb.

Great weekend. Packed out most days and top notch darts. The BDO is well and truly on its way back to the top.

Tickets received. Going to be a great weekend.

No, but he hit a 154 finish in the Lyon Thursday Night League so apparently that means he's the next Champ.

So the £25 tickets will actually set you back £28.50 "Transaction" and booking fees increasing the base ticket cost by 14% I am sure loads of people will buy tickets now to support the "frontline" of referees that practically no one outside county darts have ever heard of. Unbel...

Great to see Kez on the big stage. Deserves her chance.

Well done H. Great to see him on board. Class act.

Great additions. Lovely blokes who will offer a real professional service. Well done Desmond & Co.

Yes, I judge success on prize money and sponsorship too. Really adds to the excitement, doesn't it.

Great appointment. Probably the best MC I've ever seen in my lifetime.

No, no, no, apparently he's just got a venue sorted without any of idea of how it's being funded.
