"I seriously don't ever think I've been as angry at a BDO event than I am right now. £20 we paid for pairs! Wait 15 minites for a marker that doesn't turn up! Go to control and what do we get told "FIND YOIR OWN MARKER" what a piss take! So we were angry we were annoyed so we wait...and wait....and wait and Guess what.. no volunteer marker. So some lady with the other two players goes up and kicks off to be told tell them to pay for a marker (Head EXPLODED). By this point my heads gone! We loose the game 3-1. I go to control for 20 minutes arguing complaining moaning my arse off that we aren't marking as nobody gets scrapped for it. To be told I'd be brought the rules. The 'official' come back with no rules but wiping their eyes!! Completely ignores me..lets two bdo 'pros' by the side of me back into the comp after being called 3 times and scrapped from the event. I walked away in disbelief knowing that nothing would be sorted...FUMING! But seeing why these idiots are so far behind the PDC! Never have I been so angry at an event and this is also missing details out as I've ranted enough!!"

Always bewilders me as to why folk on forums choose to post content from elsewhere but never says who it is from, Simple way to stop the blame being layed on anyone else is to simply state who it was that posted it in the first place but then again with attention seekers that are on here and elsewhere then hardly surprising that they like to leave things like this open to a bit of shit stirring!!

Tony...If you know who it was that said it then why not just name them??

It's not a secret. Was posted on Facebook by Danny Ayres.

The point I'm making is that "big names" were apparently scratched but allowed back in, so don't be surprised if Duzza's mate gets entered late.

Wow I’ve just read the KOTW blog for the first time in ages.

Am I allowed to chuckle but say how utterly brutal and offensive it is? But so offence no one should take it seriously.

on a serious note surely officials do not treat 'big name' players differently than the small fry re the rules? That would be totally out of order.

Of course they do, it has always been the same, Phil's Darts Club being a prime example.

Correct. Has happened both sides of the divide.

I understand that Duzza's mate Allan Edwards dud not get into the event.

Duzza was hoping the BDO had made an error or that they would relent, but apparently not.
