EDIT: Found it -
BDO Website wrote:The ground-breaking agreement will see Eurosport screen all three BDO Majors – The BDO World Darts Trophy, The BDO World Masters and the BDO World Professional Darts Championships – for the next three years, commencing in January with the 2019 BDO World Professional Darts Championships.

Eurosport have long been a broadcasting partner of the BDO across the UK, Europe and globally but this exciting development will see Eurosport become our primary broadcaster and will bring live darts action to homes across the UK, The Netherlands and Australia.

Additionally, in a commitment to ensure the BDO World Professional Darts Championships are delivered terrestrially for the 42nd consecutive year, free-to-air channel Quest will share rights to each tournament with Eurosport, providing both live coverage and full highlights, which will be easily accessible in the UK via Eurosport and Quest Channels on Freeview, Freesat, cable and satellite and Eurosport Player.
It wont stop them seething though.

If the ‘fanatics’ don’t get any the free tickets, they will be looking for free streams to watch the darts.

Nope. A master stroke of scheduling from the BDO.

Not really, they've all bought tickets for all the sessions, they are after all fanatics.

Cardiff City v Fulham is on Friday night (and is top pick in Dail mail TV guide.)

World trophy does get a mention in sport page in the mag. Don't think it did previously.

So on the Fanatics site what is their answer as too why they don’t attend?
Des Jacklin: ‘People say the BDO can’t compete with the PDC, but that is the biggest load of crap in the world’

God rest Alf Garnett and Prince Phil.

I used to love cycling but unfortunately I know a man who doesn’t like cyclists. :roadrage:

It’s on the BDO YouTube channel for free but you will need a VPN set to a country outside U.K. and Ireland,

Is there an advert broadcast? Des has said the BDO can be as professional as the PDC.

Would be great marketing that, going on local radio the day it starts. Chris on the cider the day.
