2018 BDO World Championship- Lakeside- 6th-14th January
Re: Road to Lakeside 2018
Yeah, the GSOD is a bit of a special matter given that the PDC is expressly inviting players through criteria based on BDO competitions. I don't think accepting the place would contradict Montgomery's "only play for one organization at a time" ethos. And hey, maybe he'll like it so much that he ends up as the biggest name switcher of 2018...

Montgomery would only have to give the same line Adams did, 'the BDO asked me to do it'.

Yes, they may be and they are perfectly entitled to that opinion. Personally, as I have articulated, it is not one I agree with and think should Montgomery qualify, I would like to see him at the GSOD. Think it is important that the BDO are represented by their strongest possible players and the criteria they are using should ensure that. Would love to see Ross drawn in the same group as Gary, and for Ando to address his 0-2 record against Monty.ifm wrote:Folk on here are calling him idiotic.ssjsa wrote:He has been consistent in his view, and I agree that he is perfectly entitled to to articulate that opinion. However circumstances and viewpoints change and for me, I would have no issue with him accepting a place in the GSOD should he have an invitation through the BDO's qualifying criteria.ifm wrote:Love him or hate him he has always been consistent in his view, if he were to change it for money then he deserves to be called names by nobodies on dart forums, until then it is his choice so he gets my respect.

It's a pdc comp, so the term 'idiotic' probably meant something different to what you thought it meant.ifm wrote:Folk on here are calling him idiotic.ssjsa wrote:He has been consistent in his view, and I agree that he is perfectly entitled to to articulate that opinion.

As he gets bowled out of Lakeside early every year, I would suggest it would be definitely more.nikkiboy wrote:Exactly, and it's probably more than he'll earn at any other competition all season.spaceman70 wrote:Montgomery would only have to give the same line Adams did, 'the BDO asked me to do it'.
He could buy lots of creosote to paint his fences.

5 grand for being 3rd in the group last year.
Surely the BDO World number 5 wouldn't be bottom of the pile.
Hardly been raking it in has he.

So your "facts" are not true, thought not, just waiting for the proof of him creosoting a fence or i'm 2/2BlueSpark wrote:Waiting for Ian's famous slapping down....

Re: Road to Lakeside 2018
Neil, Ian is alluding to the fact he got to a quarter final in 2015 means that your statement that he gets bowled out early EVERY year as being inaccurate.ifm wrote:So your "facts" are not true, thought not, just waiting for the proof of him creosoting a fence or i'm 2/2BlueSpark wrote:Waiting for Ian's famous slapping down....
You should know by now that his level of pedantry knows no bounds.

Re: Road to Lakeside 2018
I like humouring him to a degree.
Frankly, 1 quarter final appearance in 10 attempts in a field of 32 is pathetic.

Yes, terrible record and pretty sure ifm would agree, were it not for him being more concerned with petty scoring points.BlueSpark wrote:I like humouring him to a degree.

"More concerned with" should be "incapable of anything else than".
