Whitlock came through the DFA gazmong

DFA is a subsidiary of the WDF (who are useless) and tendered their WC to the BDO

HOPE THIS HELPS

Lest we forget this is the same DFA who sanctioned that exbo where they had a riot.

The PDC has obviously relied heavily on the BDO; without it there would be no PDC. That is just stating the bleeding obvious. That is increasingly less and less the case though; there is an alternative route by which aspiring professional dart players can circumvent the BDO altogether. I do believe there is a place for both - along with the WDF - to coexist. For that to happen though the BDO is going to have to accept its place in the pecking order. It is simply no longer a platform for professional darts. I think Des has made a very good decision in allowing players the freedom of movement. There is only so many players the PDC can cater for. The rest can be taken care of in the BDO and WDF systems. I think the offer of financial and professional help will be put back on the table if egos give way to common sense.

As I said; it's stating the bleeding obvious. Without the Football League there would be no Premiership. The point of posting which is what exactly? That the game has moved on? I which case, I also agree.

The old "Adie Lewis played BDO and therefore is a BDO production" is the most disingenuous shite that's regularly brought up.

Played a bunch of Youth Events in 2003 when he was 18 and had a stab at The Masters then immediately switched to the PDC.

A few months playing youth simply doesn't count. Your point is well made without embellishing it with nonsense.

But, but, but.......It was a meaningless exbo like the Premier League or GSOD and therefore the result is meaningless and nothing to do with proper darts.

Well if you are saying that then all PDC comps must be classed as meaningless.........

Stoke losing 2-0 at home to Preston today wasn't embarassing because Stoke won the League Cup in 1972.
