Will the dad be trousering the cash for himself though to cover bed and board?whatty180 wrote:He loves it.when you speak to him you forget his age which is a big compliment to him.He has his head screwed on for a young lad and I don't think his dad is pushy. Yes he supports him 100% as a dad should but I don't think he is overpowering. He is a good player himself and plays in all the comps that Leighton does so he knows what he is letting the lad get into

I know the lads dad well ...one of the most improved players I'd ever seen when he started for Lincs ...going from a 21 ave right up to 28-32 every week in a very short space of time. I know he's been taking the lad to darts for over 5yrs now and encouraged him a lot. And I can imagine how the dad was on Sunday lmao and I doubt the dad will have taken any of the cash and will have let the lad treat himself and use some of it to enter other comps.whatty180 wrote:I can't speak for him but if it was me he would be forking out for petrol money and buying me a pint at least
Oh dear. No need for that. Its that Barberan (sp?) fella all over again, his lad ended up telling him to F off didnt he?Double Flops wrote:Just watched a video of the final and the dad was a bit out of order ..shouting out and telling a few to f off lol

Yeah he was shouting out when Rhys was throwing, Tilley asked for order and he was told to f off lol ....then at the end he jumped on stage and was asked to leave it and told a woman to f off as well.Bag Carrier wrote:Double Flops wrote:Just watched a video of the final and the dad was a bit out of order ..shouting out and telling a few to f off lol
Heard it caused a bit of a stir in the venue. Especially in the final against Rhys

Not watching all 15 minutes of it but he tells the woman to F off from 13.28 onwards, with some verbals thereafter. What an actual nob.Double Flops wrote:On a blokes fb page ...Charlie WarrilowGinge wrote:Where is said video?
This is exactly the reason, they dont want their top players to be humbled by a kid, they hide behind the sponsorship reason which is total b*llocks given 15 year olds have played in TV snooker events sponsored by gambling companies.devosteve wrote:Not been cutting and pasting (where is marky when we need him?) from real fanatics as much.

Apparently in one person's opinion the age limit is because the pros are scared, These kids could beat the PDC pro's, And if they lifted the age restrictions then it would bring new faces in which would result in fresh crowds watching and the BDO returning to it's glory.
Can't be as simple as that.
