Re: BDO announce 3 year deal with Eurosport
Now that there is a 3 year broadcasting deal The BDO are probably leaning on Potter to contribute more . This deal chnages the balance of power in their negotiations away from him.
Re: BDO announce 3 year deal with Eurosport
Will it be ever known how much Eurosport have paid for this deal ?...I doubt it will be much at all so that makes it vital that the BDO now go and get the sponsorship required to stage the events and cover the prize fund...without the sponsors then the TV deal alone means very little..
But the advantages of guaranteed TV coverage means that it is far easier to attract sponsors and any marketing company worth their salt should be able to attract sponsorship now with the firm guarantee of TV coverage...so they are now working from a much better base so it's now up to the BDO and their marketing arm.

If the BDO move away from Lakeside it’s a commercial disaster.
If they remain at Lakeside, why would Bob put more money up when they’re going to fill his hotel anyway?
Re: BDO announce 3 year deal with Eurosport
Potter is laughing, he's filling the venue and not forking out over £300k, maybe he's giving a percentage of the bar and ticket sales away now but that means for every penny he gives he takes considerably more.Dannyboy wrote:For me there is very little change on this score at all.Astonvilla wrote:Now that there is a 3 year broadcasting deal The BDO are probably leaning on Potter to contribute more .

Nothing at all about a sponsor, something that quite a few seem to have missed.

Re: BDO announce 3 year deal with Eurosport
Yes Potter always sponsors it, that's why it's held at Lakeside....

Re: BDO announce 3 year deal with Eurosport
Then Mr Potter needs to tell the BDO as they are not calling him a sponsor in their press releasesPaddy McGinty wrote:Yes Potter always sponsors it, that's why it's held at Lakeside....
