BDO players will be waiting to see what new tournaments will be announced for next year before making a decision.

[Mgt]

Some lovely players in the UK list.

[Bram_1900]

Ulf Ceder..I dont know why he enters. Don't believe he will do the full tour if he wins a tour card

[oche balboa]

Well obviously you don’t know much about him as his name is the wrong way round lol

[The Jolly Man]

Numbers seem very low. Expected to see more added this week than last weeks 40 but only 23 people entered in a week!!
17 for Europe as well which seems a bit low.

How do the numbers compare to other years?

92 Entrants last year (16th December 2016)

[Little Lonely Garry]

give me quality over quantity anyday

[Astonvilla]

Dont think its low yet. Until Lakeside is done and the Bdo set out what they are offering good players in 2018 not much will happen. No point committing until you know both sides.

They will be offering nothing new.

Begging bucket is out ffs

another

I dont wish to doubt his veracity, but he doesn't appear to be involved in Cleveland super league / county, he doesn't seem to be involved in the thriving Teeside darts ranking events ! Just wondering where he would be playing and having these 100+ averages recorded? Bedroom masters maybe?

[DavidB]

My opinions so don’t quote me on these.

Durrant will go Q School if he doesn’t win Lakeside, Will be prepared to loose semi money.
Menzies will go if he don’t make the semi
Noppert will go 100% so won’t make the Semi
Geert De Vos will go if dont make the semi
Veenstra will go if don’t make the semi
Reynolds will go if don’t make the semi
Mcgeeney will stay in BDO
Mitchell will stay in BDO
Fitton will stay in BDO
Hughes will stay BDO
Montgomery will stay BDO
Harms will stay BDO - they need leading Dutch player in BDO


There the only ones of note that I think will consider it. I think some playing a waiting game to see how many actually sign up before staying there going or not. Say 12 of the players go, Some will see that as a great chance to stay where they are and earn money.

Fitton staying in the BDO even if Tony O goes to Q school I'm shocked, What about Gary Robson will he switch?.

Tony was not available for county selection as he stated he is going Q School. He ain’t under any Lakeside contract so it’s a no brainier for him. Darryl I think will stay BDO. Robbo, Can’t see him leaving either. Think it would be a bit frosty between him and Anderson on the tour

Why frosty? Thought Robbo and Ando were mates?

[trotter]

Labanauskas has now confirmed he will definitely stay in the BDO side in 2018...but will play the SDC events...so no QS for him....

[Bram_1900]

That's better for everyone. Especially for his own wallet.

[ChrisW]

So at the moment the ratio looking like 4:1. Wonder if the tour cards will be split similar.

Unless he plays on the pro tour don't think there is benefit to him switching. He can enter as many euro qualifiers as he wants being in the Scandinavian region.

Which I think isn’t a good loophole to have.

They were great mates and even ran a business together. Gary A went to the pdc without telling Gary R and wrapped the business up and they aint been friends since.
