Was odd (very) she even reapplied last year, must have been just to spite Des. As for the other one, impression I got was he was very much a "sleeping partner" anyway, as it were.
Hardly any reaction over on fanatics. Maybe folks don't care anymor ?
I don't think people are going to get worked up about a board member leaving when they're seen as part of the failure.

Well what has happened to all the people he was drafting into various positions ? Did that ever get done ?

and taking a positive outlook without Des at the helm can you imagine how much worse it would be now for the BDO ....

Can somebody explain oche to me please? Is he always on the windup? Was that tweet a genuine one or was it to get a reaction?

If Carl Yung were still alive today, even he couldn't explain Oche to you. :grin:

Even before Des took over he was shouting from the top of mountains about the major sponsors he had lined up!

Now 9 month later we are still biting our nails waiting on the huge announcement of said sponsors.

How long do we give Des before he’s put into the warren brown category of the talking shit???

Winmau were barely a "sponsor" anyway. Didnt they say the Masters the other year lost £80k or something stupid like that? Prize fund wasnt even that much ffs.

So to re-cap:
Des insists on having his photo taken with a rather bemused looking Winmau exec, and then using it as the main image promoting one of their "premium" events.
Winmau take the business decision to stop giving the BDO some free dartboards.

"World-class business acumen".

At least it means the news that Winmau had given 12 months notice wasnt bollocks, I believe one or two forum members doubted it.

The shambles goes on and on and on, i like the announcement of a potential announcement earlier up the thread. Where have we seen them before???

also any ideas for the thread name once we end up in june? Just shambolic June perhaps?

Thanks

I can't think of a relevant word that starts with a J, to be honest.

Jubilant June.

Or Jinxed June if it all goes tits up again.

God knows what we'll do if we get to July. I had a hard time thinking those two up.

Won't be for a while as he's too busy spending the 28K of the youths money for 'other' purposes
