I believe BDO gonna grow x

[The Jolly Man]

Now that Des has told everyone that he is in talks with an overseas sports company do the PDC now go and talk to them? And find out how much they want to invest. If it's big enough they sign them up if it isn't big the BDO keep them?

I can't believe for one minute an overseas company wants to invest in the BDO over the sport of Darts.

i like what he says about the counties but that has just been taken from the forum. It's something that has been mentioned in here for years that the BDO had to promote what was unique to itself.

A lot of what he says though is similar to previous new era entities.

All of what he says will surely be dependent on what the tv situation around Lakeside turns out to be. Could this change whether it's going to be good or not be 12 months to late?

It’s probably Warren Brown’s Dubai company.

Derek says nothing new, reveals nothing new, has no new money to offer. He has no relevant experience despite what he says. he is a lucky property developer and ex bar man, that is by no means good business acumen to sit in front of major sponsors and TV companies.
The only concrete thing he has offered is more snouts to eat at the trough of BDO expenses.

Absoloutley spot on.

And if anyone thinks an overseas sports company would invest in the BDO they want their heads testing.

IN CONCLUSION

The Board of Directors of the BDO have appeared for several years to rest on their laurels created from the darting hey day of the 1970’s and 1980’s. They seemed to be in cruise control through the 1990’s and then looked like they were taking their foot off the pedal at the turn of the century. This has created a massive void whereby other companies, organisations or associations have undertaken roles which were previously exclusive to the BDO.
In order to re-establish the BDO as the controlling body of the game, whereby everyone looks up to the organisation will take several years. However a failure to act at this point in time will only act as putting a further nail in the coffin of the BDO. The Board of Directors must establish a working agenda and suitable timeline in which this work will be established.
At present the BDO has just one man for one job, which is fine until that one man is unable to do his job. When the job becomes vacant there is nobody who is able to pass on sufficient information to allow the work to be completed seamlessly. This has been highlighted by the website, the rights and the ability to place items onto the site rest with just one man. When he is unavailable the system does not work. The BDO must start to restructure itself whereby several people have the ability to continue the work of others. In the normal workplace where somebody takes leave or is missing for other reasons the company, or a significant portion of the company doesn’t just stop.
The Board of Directors must also implement several new strategies. The structuring of a Youth system, the restructuring of the BICC and the structuring of tournament play within the system must all be at the forefront of the new plans.
The introduction of online registrations for tournaments, together with dedicated membership numbers are other areas which need to be explored.
The current rules of darts need to be addressed with this being an instance where a group of senior members on both the playing and officiating front could work in unison.
In short following the AGM it is time for the board of the BDO to once again start working for its members, come up with a plan of action, inform its members of the plan and then implement the said plan.
This will almost certainly include some individuals who represent their counties taking a greater responsibility, similarly it will mean more individuals having to put their name to the plate and share the jobs around. It is time for the system to start working together which if it does will see significant rewards not only financial but also in just gratification for everyone.

Everyone had a gratifying time.

It’s nonsense it’s no different to other posts people have made, it’s just a statement to get gullible people excited with no substance.

It doesn’t even add up, if you going to invest into thw bdo so that everyone top to bottom sees the benefit your going to be looking at multiple millions of pounds, a few hundred thousand here and there doesn’t even cover the books as we have found out. No company in their right mind is going to do that when it has no way of grttting anything in return. Don’t forget the bdo still don’t have a tv deal in place

Yes but this one has the advantage of an affiliate scheme for whatever hotel chain.
I just wonder who the beneficiary of this scheme will be ?

Am I missing something about The Jacklins business prowess

Company appears to be propped up by using their 'dream house' as an asset on the balance books.They were also trying to sell this property a while ago

Wonder what the 'real story' is if you peel away some more layers ?

[Ginge]

All well and good if your county venue is near a propery the said hotel chain owns....

I agree, there has been a lot of nonsense about them being great business people when clearly they have got lucky with a few property developments.

This deal with one of the Worlds largest hotel chains will be good for everyone. If the winning bidder doesnt have a hotel near a major BDO venue they could easily build or buy one with the certainty of such regular and extensive business.

I don't know about anyone else but can you really see Lenny Henry as the face of the BDO away weekends ?

definitely has the ring of DeluXe affiliate deals with betting companies!
I mean, his one almost announcement is a Hotel discount rate for BICC members which I swear I could have got with a few phone calls in one day.
Just more empty promises.
