Re: World Masters 2018
I'm sure Pauly will be using this example as one of his tests of the new regime's commitment to transparency over on his Facebook group.

Re: RE: Re: Hearn reaches out to the bdo again.
Turn the tide of what? The realisation that the future of darts isn't 2 orgs having competing world professional championships. Why not . The Hearns have managed to to work with this in boxing. The whole purpose of having multiple sanctioning bodies in boxing is to generate more income for all invo...

Re: Is the new BDO social media activity a good sign?

Re: Road to BDO World Championships 2019
Fair enough. I neither know nor care what they show on the weekday daytime slots, so didn't know that Channel 5 was the official home of dreary Antipodean soap operas these days.
Suppose I should have gone through the motions of bothering to find out before I asked my question.

Re: Road to BDO World Championships 2019
Genuine question: Why has no-one mentioned Channel 5 as a possible broadcaster for this? I know they don't do much in the way of sport (Premiership Rugby Highlights are all I can think of off the top of my head), so the complete lack of experience in live sports broadcasting would be an obvious prob...

Re: PDC Champions League of Darts 22nd-23rd September 2018- Brighton
They are new to darts sponsorship.
Maybe they don't realise the correct way to deal with these things is to announce your announcement before you actually make an announcement announcing your announcement. Or something.

Re: BDO Fanatics AKA the in the Jacklin's pocket club
This sort of thing is the future of sport. Look at how Europe's football elite are forever trying to tinker with Champions League qualification criteria in an attempt to turn it into a closed shop, completely devoid of merit. If it's good enough for the Champion's League, it's good enough for darts....

Something about Muslim grooming gangs, thought it was funny tbh. Any post becomes offensive when it offends someone, regardless of the majority not being personally offended. And rightly so.

It's unlike Des to be so coy when the news is positive.
