BDO Fanatics AKA the in the Jacklin's pocket club

[Ginge]

It was only changed twice actually. Once when the initial calendar came out and they realised it clashed with the Zuiderduin. And then again later in the year. Was brought forward two weeks in the first change and then in the second change was put back a week.

Certainly was never changed three times.

Could be they offered to change it again to get it on TV but it never materialized so they never officially changed it.

My money is on TT getting mixed up here, IMO.

The first change had to happen because it clashed with Zuiderduin, the second change was sensible as it clashed with the PDC event at Minehead. Nobody can critisise them for either of those, although the second change happened with not much notice.

Maybe TT also counts the initial change from its previous Grand Prix-clashing October position in the calendar.

Looks as though they're all forming a support group for Dean Reynolds, at the moment.

Why? He's sodding off in 7 days isn't he?

Absolutely astounded at some of the comments about Dean Reynolds today!! Anyone that knows anything about darts knows how good of a player dean is and that he just had a bad game!! Not gonna allow him to be slagged of by jealous people and people who haven't got a clue about darts!! One of the biggest talents in world darts and he is in the BDO at the moment! A bit of support for the lad wouldn't go a miss

I don't think that point has been totally missed!

On another note, what does this mean?
Danny Dyer Pathetic status u tool how can u say he was trying to put him off lol givig it beans is trying to put a player off is it???

Danny Dyer Pip gave it over beans in every leg he won lol

Danny Dyer And giving it beans and showing emotion on the stage is what happens now its not the 1990s

Maybe Bigworm was right when he said the beer tasted odd last month. Trip Advisor:

We went down for three days covering Friday , Saturday and the finals day on Sunday of the Winmau world championships.
The event was not particularly well attended but it is not that I want to report. The venue itself is very 'Dog eared'. You get a sort of 70s 'wheel tappers and shunters social club' vibe about the whole place. Punters are placed at tables on chairs that are not very comfortable and very dated.
Facilities
The toilets quite frankly were disgusting. Again they looked like the were from the 70s and there definitely was no hourly cleaning rota. From the smell and feel of them I would be surprised if they had a daily cleaning rota.
Beer - massively overpriced. Everyone was complaining about how quickly it went flat. Some complained that they could taste cleaning fluid. Glasses were often wet. Many people reported being ill after the weekend.
Food
Poor quality. Again hugely overpriced. I paid 16 pounds for 2 portions of steak pie and chips. For our money we got steak pie that had been under a warming light for God knows how long - the crust was extremely hard - accompanied by about 14 chips. This was presented in a polystyrene kebab box with plastic knife and fork. Dreadful. You could wash this down with a £2.50 coffee that comprised of just normal filter coffee in a cardboard cup and of course milk was courtesy of those horrid little plastic cartons where you have to fiddle with a foil tab to rip the lid off.
The overall impression was of a dog eared scruffy venue, with dreadful facilities and horrid food and drink who just seemed intent on extracting the maximum amount of money from the punter for the least amount of effort.
We will never go there again. Dreadful.

It was always in October on a date allegedly "set in stone" a couple of years back and wouldn't be changed for anything .
Not only dates changed ! Venue as well.
