[Buzz Fledderjohn]

Yep his career has been one let down, still won a TV title

What was it?

Well it wasn't a TV title as such.
It was 250 quid from You've Been Framed for the hoverboard footage

I think this is the worst set of bdo players we have had to be honest can't see Harms,Willams,Robson,McGeeney winning a game never mind getting out of the group but you never know i suppose

You obviously can't remember the year when the BDO had qualifiers then! This group are far better than that

Larry Butler was throwing better then than what Harms, Robson and McGeeney are now I agree the 2 dutch lads where shit like

Butler had that one great week where he qualified for GSoD, Lakeside then made the World Masters final. He averaged no better than 93 but when it came to those events he beat Andy Boulton with an 88 ave in his only win then at Lakeside he won two matches but averaged no better than 86.

McGeeney and Robson for sure are throwing much better right now, Harms perhaps not!

Harms is a mystery - he's actually been throwing very consistently in tour events this season, averaging 92 overall, but it seems that he is never far away from a shocker like his performance at the Masters. I hope that was a one-off

Butler had a magic week that week he beat Durrant, Waites, Adams & Mitchell along the way in both events.

Was a bit dismal in the GSOD, In fact it was the poorest set of BDO Players

Mark Oosterhuis was awful, Fordham completed well but was obviously going to be short, Mitchell had a cunt of a group, De Vos fucked up the first, didnt turn up for his 2nd, and was superb in his 3rd, If he would have won 3 legs he would have qualified. Phillips was just really poor, Michel van der Horst was sub-standard

Adams was the only success

Harms played in 2012 where he got to the last 16 beating Jenkins, 2013 he was in a group with in form trio Anderson, Wright & Wade. 2014 he had Anderson again, Bunting & Winstanley.

He has played well on the floor this year.

Maybe she (and others ) need to vent about more important issues, such as where their World Championship is, who is showing it, and why a single ticket hasnt been sold for it with less than 90 days to go.

Well if her manager [Roger] was voted for the chairman position, I think she could have put more pressure on releasing information about that. Not her fault that the BDO is runned by a couple of incapable nobodys.

Yes yes yes yes but Roger clearly was never going to win due to his massive conflict of interests (managing a PDC player). Much more of a conflict than having your wife being in the top 15 in the world in the same system you trying to become the Chairman of.....

While his first ''achievement'' was funding a holiday tournament in Spain so his wife could get some points for Lakeside qualification...

In Ashton's case, she's probably hoping her World Championship is at Ally Pally in December, live on Sky, and has already sold plenty of tickets

[oche balboa]

She needs to win the UK qualifier

[Ginge]

She needs to win the UK qualifier

Hence the word "hoping"

[Ginge]

Well well well.

Not surprising that Des would champion a female player going to the Grand Slam. It wouldn't be worth the grief he'd get at home not to.
The rest of the board being unanimously against it though......

They would have been for it assuming one of the dirty stinking foreigners missed out as a result.

As it turned out, sitting in the final spot was Gary Robson.....

Haha Bradders fishing

The Criteria has been laid out for months, it’s unfair to change it. You would bet next year it will be changed

Known for months, a bit like the selection criteria for England.....
