McGeeney should also have won that as he he became the 2nd man after Judus to have darts to be World Champion and never win it.

I wonder how many Durrant will have to win to get to £300k in prize money
Are you planning on joining the forum shindig this year?
Are you?
Yep I have been thinking about it. Might be my last chance.
Good work.

He has to be worth a few quid cos if he gets a bit of a run together he is more than capable of walking through the field.

However if he plays as he has really for the last few years he isn't going to put the fear of god into anyone facing him.

I personally think at top level his game has gone and nothing will make it return but he's certainly capable of having a good day and beating any current BDO player.

I think if Andy goes in as a non seed there will be a lot of fear in the seeded players as none of them will want to draw him, He has that big stage experience and at 25/1 is certainly worth a punt, Similar case for Wes could be made and has always been a player that has played better on the big stage than in floor comps but between the pair I would back Andy.

Outside of that, Glen will be flowing with confidence but my personal feeling is that this time around there will be a big outsider that will come through, Lot of players that have and can beat the big names there at big prices.

You're right Paddy, they've got enough to worry about with whether it's on TV, whether they'll get paid the same as last year and will they have to sign over their first born to the BDO contract before they throw a dart to worry about some old has been that has been tearing up the BDO field and qualified for the showpiece at the first attempt. :IIII:

Well, if you stopped reading there, you wouldn't have seen my rationale for those suggestions.

A tad blinkered. ;-)

Still some big events left - British Open and England Classic Cat A+, British Classic and Vizcaya Open Cat A - so no-one from the mid-twenties down in the rankings is a shoe-in yet

Can you get insurance on Dave Parletti?

No, but you can go to Justgiving to cover your lost stake after the event.

To have a youth player that just have won his first floor tournament with the professionals this high for the World championships says a lot about the quality of this field. Having Newton so low in this field says a lot about Newton on the other hand.

To be fair Hankey & Adams are on it and they are at this moment about as likely to qualify as I am.

The fact they both aren't 500-1 + shows more about the odds setter knowledge of really

More that odd setters know that they can lay big names to less informed punters at silly short prices based purely on the fact that they are well known.
