This is actually a inavative move from bt, the line rental hasn't risen just a £3 extra for sports be interesting to see how the others react to this i.e. the dirty digger / talk talk etcSkewball wrote:BT Sport will not be free to BT TV subscribers (i.e. me) from August. So that will be even fewer people watching Lakeside on BT Sport next year.

its well know in certain circles that bt can easily out fund the dirty digger, without this £3 token increase (that's all it is ) as I have pointed out previously the line rental charge has not increased which is a new tactic that none of the big 4 have previously done put a token charge for the sport but not increase line rental,

I'm confused. Why do you keep calling Sky the "dirty digger"?

I see. Genuinely never heard of that one before. Maybe if people just use the proper name there would be no confusion...Rout wrote:That nickname was given to Rupert Murdoch based on his media empire and they way they go about "getting" news.Ginge wrote:I'm confused.

Was there any truth in the story that there was a fight in the players bar?

Re: Lakeside World Professional Championships 2017 7-15 Jan
Interesting review of the Lakeside experience by Raymond Smith:
http://www.dartsaustralia.com/2017/01/3 ... xperience/
Seems like he really enjoyed it, but the fact that it is so different to anything else some of these players experience must have an effect on their performance. Seems that he suffered from the thieving as well. Not sure I understand what he's saying about the hotel costs?

Re: Lakeside World Professional Championships 2017 7-15 Jan
"Getting to and from Lakeside from Heathrow Airport is expensive. I recommend contacting the Lakeside Hotel ahead of time and booking their taxi service. It’s £42 – £46 one way, but cheaper than any other option you will find anywhere in the UK."
Erm, surely the train is cheaper than that?!
As for the hotel, he just wasnt budgeting for it being that expensive is my reading of it.
