Re: rambling and bickering moved from other threads

Thanks for proving my point. One comment (not actually an insult as I couldn't care less if you're autistic or not and nor could anyone else except for you), and it's a lie-filled rant. Maybe you have more in common with Credible than I thought. Can only imagine some of the rubbish which features o...

Tbh that woman’s prize money is poor and men’s is top heavy I am sure they could have 1000/500/300/125/50 in the woman’s Women: Prize fund: 2370 Fees: 13 x 138 = 1794 Men: Prize fund: 8180 Fees: 16 x 725 = 11600 The women's prize money is much more generous than the men's. Yep, but I've come to exp...

Re: Glen Durrant

As was Kobe Bryant. When was Bryant convicted of any sexual offence? By your logic, Jimmy Savile was nothing but a humble charity worker. Though Bryant at least admitted what he did. BEAST! Bryant was accused by one person, who declined to follow up, and Bryant never admitted rape. He settled the c...

Re: The BDO Unofficial & Unregulated World Darts Championships 4-12 Jan 2020 Indigo at the O2

The reason I didn't think they invested much on TV rights is that many years ago a guy called Steve Mottershead (who was involved with darts - mostly the Feeler) said that Eurosport don't pay for a single sport they show. Obviously he was wrong, or he was correct but things have changed since then....

Re: The BDO Unofficial & Unregulated World Darts Championships 4-12 Jan 2020 Indigo at the O2

Cycling is a sport I don't trust but fair enough, each to their own. As for the snooker, the main tournaments are on the BBC and that's enough for me. Who commentates on Eurosport these days? Foulds was good. Foulds is their main one, and he still is very good (he also does the ITV4 stuff as well)....

Doesn't this prove that there is a market for non-PDC darts? Why would Eurosport be investing in a dead product? Eurosport invest (and I use the term loosely as I've heard they pay nothing-very little for pretty much every sport they cover) in a load of crap. They've got to fill their channels with...

Re: rambling and bickering moved from other threads

I heartily recommend it to those who enjoy their darts, banter and can take a joke. Is this like JC's blog where people claim never to read it yet seem to know every blog entry he's ever made? How lovely. I can't imagine this laissez-faire approach to comedy lasts long if the subject matter becomes...

Some were still saying it after the verdict which is pretty disgusting. If that was some random guy you read about in the newspaper, nobody here would defend him.

Good. But I assume that's the 23,000 for the winner contract and not the original contract? But the players don't deserve to lose out because of the Jacklins ineptitude and greed. Surely they can be removed by the counties?

Re: Glen Durrant

It's good to see sensible opinions again. Honest discussions are always better than constant trolling, even if I'm not averse to a bit of :fishing myself. There was a time when no matter how weak the BDO field got, the BDO stalwarts (who in my opinion are not true BDO fans anyway if they want the J...

Re: Televising the BICC ffs

Televising county darts will feel like we are watching a Rita, Sue and Bob too sequel Pretty much. Some people are still stuck in the past. What is the point? The only interest I had in county darts this season was finding out that Glamorgan stuffed Lincolnshire the other week. Nice to see a win, e...
