Must say I’m really impressed how fast he’s got to task made more impact in a month than all the rest of the bdo in 25 years. He’s been really transparent and making the right changes all hail uncle Des!!!

Plus the thing released today only confirms what we all knew anyway.

Also nobody knows the exact amount they used of BDO funds to bail out a Spanish event.

Improved relationships with the PDC became more transparent and gave players more options to name a few things.

At the very least it must be said he is a lot more active than the previous boards.

Would not go as far as saying he is making a Major impact, but credit where credit is due, he has demonstrated a willingness to address issues which his predecessor failed to.

He’s talking

He’s now got to follow up on stuff

Pdc dialogue will only happen if he makes concessions regarding lakeside and that will be one of the most polarising decisions he will ever have to make.

Still needs to actual sort out tv deals and confirmation of majors

Can someone tell me what des has actually done other than allow his wife play in a pdc comp ?

Has the prizefunds and tv deals, and sponsors been sorted ?
Thought not

It also seem Beau Greaves can have a go at making lakeside if wants to enter the senior events and gets enough points but can only play in youth world masters

Probably just been moved to the Bickering thread in the General section? One of yours is in there from recently.

But only the ladies. Tony Martin says the reason he was given is too embarrassing to share!

still waiting to hear what this progress is under des.

all I saw was an announcement that allowed his wife to partake in the pdc ally pally qualifiers.

I have not seen any news on sponsors, lakeside money, tv deals etc.
Where is this progress ?
