Yup. Thats the figure i made up last night, because no-one knows the actual numbers, so mine have just as much credibility as his.

And as I said, no-one even questioned the credibility or accuracy of the number I made up.

So 81 is clearly a plausible figure in their minds :D

I note that none of the graphics that have been produced so far include the word "Quest" on them, which may mean the skint Fanatics who only have council telly will be seething.

A guy who lives in Blackburn posted on fanatics that there were no posters for this event outside the venue. The posters that are up are for events in September (I think). Apparently posters and flyers were sent from the BDO.

So 1 fanatic is going down today with some posters to sort things out (hopefully).

Sorry, what? Someone on Fanatics is going down to the venue with his own posters? Behave :DDD:

Surely if they sent them materials to put up then its the BDO who should be sorting it out.

I think he has got some 'official' posters and he said he will take them down today. he was ringing box office but none was replying. someone did say on fanatics the BDO should be sorting this out not a guy who happens to know it is on and was walking past and saw no posters.

Not great is it. I guess if the posters are put up it will be "well done des".
