I was playing in the Champions Cup last year and all the talk is that they do it every year. Most are signed on and will have played some of course but the word on the street is that yes, they do effectively get ringers in who have not signed on for another Yorkshire Superleague team. Lots of teams/Counties do it with one or two players so its not that big a deal. The only rule is that they are not signed on/played for another Superleague team.
Some Counties don't even have a team based Superleague and have a singles league and so just pick the best from that.
We picked our 9 from all our regular players, otherwise how would have I got in lol

£1500 split between 9, if you have to bring in ringers to split that level of money between that many people then you must be desperate for the cash.

£1500 is an embarresment, the BDO should be ashamed. Was there any vouchers?Ginge wrote:£1500 split between 9, if you have to bring in ringers to split that level of money between that many people then you must be desperate for the cash.

Steve and Ginge getting a bit giddy this morning.
Re: BDO Gold Cup Draws
Clearly a small amendment to the rules is required to ensure the players in the team are at least ones who have played for them in the previous season. How easy this is to police, I have no idea.Black Velvet wrote:Steve and Ginge getting a bit giddy this morning.

Re: BDO Gold Cup Draws
If they're signed on I don't really see the issue.
Re: BDO Gold Cup Draws
All players must be signed on, but they don't have to have played a game, that's what some people don't like as there are lot's of good players who don't play Superleague and get signed on just to play the Champions Cup. Lots of the teams do it, some more than others.
I agree that there should be a rule about minimum number of games. In my view anyone who has not played a single game all season is a ringer.

Paul, stop screenshotting from here onto FB. Either join in the discussion or stay away as you said you would. More than happy to have you back on here but what you are doing at the moment is a bit embarrassing.

Nothing stopping him doing it while it's a public forum, and no worse than what Sparky did.

He is screenshotting this laughing at your typo about it being players who 'have played for them in the following season'. I assume you meant previous season.

Yes I did mean "previous", would have though that was obvious.
Hi Paul sticking up for the BDO now then?
