Richie Burnett banned?

Post by Krispy »

There's lot of talk on twitter about a rumour that Richie Burnett has been banned from the World Championships...

I wonder if they'll have a 3rd place play off today if it's at all true.

Although it's Oche mentioning it the most - so it could be a scheme to make the PDC look bad ;-)

It's not just the worlds if it proves to be true. Banned from the PDC entirely.

The offence nothing darts related.

Obviously not seen anything official.

I've heard from my sources that it's following investigations into historical shit moustaches and hairdos and that the charges relate to the BDO World Championships of the mid to late 1990s.

Must be something pretty bad to kop a lifetime ban from the PDC. Considering they have convicted criminals playing in the org just now.

Darter Richie Burnett is not welcome at the PDC world championships. He's been caught using EPO and is therefore provisionally suspended . The news has not been confirmed by the PDC or Burnett himself, but informed journalists are saying major dart news will be released today.
