Let's see what happens re that post. Put it on here with Tony m indicating the line up to change (though my guess had been that an international qualifier might with draw) but wondered if there was a connection. Also oche, now that he is a 'media pundit ' , might know what was happening.
Oche a media pundit....Just goes to show folk will give any clueless idiot a platform to spout their crap these days
DBG TV anyone??
We were telling people about this at the weekend who werent around a few years ago, they couldnt believe that every Wednesday some pissed up bloke would put an Ulster flag up in their living room and sit in front of a webcam drinking can after can, answering questions from the chatroom on which Oche was a moderator.

You couldn't make it up.

Was on Justin.tv (that went on to become twitch) and was just bizarre

Justin.tv was great. Wasn't that where smoggychris had a darts channel?

Lakeside starts on the 5th
Do players have to be there a day early?
Not as far as I know, some of the players only go to the venue when they are playing. Waites, as an example.
I was thinking there may be a pre tournament meeting or something but that would be harsh on people not playing for a couple of days having to get there a few days early.

In the days when Paul used to post on here (remember those?) he only ever mentioned Deta going there when she was due to play.

Are you inferring that the BDO have got something wrong?
The 4th is probably the day when the officials start their jolly, I mean get there and get the stage set up and preparations ready so understandable.

Gone from full hotel room for the week to only a room whilst you are in the competition to nothing now
Given you cant actually book a room there through any channel for that week (the official package is a room down the road at his other hotel), and loads of players will just stay elsewhere, is he going to have an empty hotel the whole week now then?

Maybe they have booked the hotel out and offered the players first refusal on them (or will take any room cost off their prize money)
Also the board is still getting free rooms for the week
