Hankey made bankrupt

[Skewball]

Glad it's been taken down. No way should someone who has gone bankrupt should be asking general public for money. Hopefully Ted himself told them to stop

Nah he won't have had anything to do with it, one of the Neurotics clearly got a bit carried away.

Ginge fake-newsing.

[Sawley Al]

Either way, met Hankey in Malta a few years ago and to be honest no way surprised by this news. Not allowed to mention the words "glug glug" allegedy.

[Case]

Old school darts.

Yep, earn money from comps and sponsorship, register for basically every subsequent tournament, then don't turn up! Ted has never changed over the last 20 years or so, arrogant and brilliant on his day, then a complete knob and no show thereafter!

[BlueSpark]

There you are Ted, absolved of all your debts now, you must need a few bob.
Very thoughtful.

I have met him on numerous occasions through sponsoring other players in both systems and I would honestly say he has nobody but himself to blame. Other "overheads" do not come cheap either!

He wasn't a true pro, 'twas noticable.

Case, your spamming is becoming rather tiresome.

Would suggest you either contribute in a meaningful manner or go forth and multiply.

I won't make a multiple.

I won't make a multiple.

You'll be lucky to see out the hour.

I have always liked Ted Hankey as an entertaining player, the bdo was suited for him.
I admire him him having the testicular fortitude and backbone for giving the PDC a go in the same way i admire Bunting, wilson, noppert, green, norris etc for the ambition regardless how it may have turned out for them.

But the reality with Ted was he played in a system not as tough as the PDC and no surprise he struggled when he switched.
Personally i hoped he would have done better, but it does not negate the fact he was not good enough, and in my opinion...and thats all it is.. an opinion unlike nikki and others who spout their opinion as some sort of "fact" like they are some of bonafide medical expert.

But you did want him to win anyway?

[ChrisW]

Can someone post the video.

[Skewball]

I loved watching him and wanted him to win. 100% Box Office and the sort of personality that only darts can produce. One of my fears about the future of darts under a wholly PDC umbrella would be the lack of personalities as it becomes more and more serious and just about the money.
