Well the backstabbers realised how stubborn he was, ousted Olly and then went on to make the BDO the biggest name in darts again.......... well that was the plan but it never quite worked out.

But is the bdo in a worse state than many think. As I say again I am sure the accounts showed a healthy balance in reserve but Paul Indicating It's Really bad.
Anyway,whatever the spanner is des sees it as only a temporary delay to his great and shocking announcement. He can't lose though. If he pulls something off he will be seen as a hero if not the past board will be to blame.
I do like the fact that he is more open than previous board. And does seem to hear criticism and respond to it.

Re: Metro "Spanner in the works" Jacklin on BDO announcements
I thought the accounts only covered the period up to April (or May?) 2018? In which case the continued subsidising of the World Trophy and World Masters by the board in 2018 would not be included. I would imagine the actual position in August last year was substantially worse than the latest accounts show, if I've got my dates right.devosteve wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2019 5:00 pm But is the bdo in a worse state than many think.

God rest Alf Garnett and Prince Phil.
I used to love cycling but unfortunately I know a man who doesn’t like cyclists.

Re: Metro "Spanner in the works" Jacklin on BDO announcements
Week day one the 1st day both session sold out and if the ticket whet on sale by mid August then freebies won’t be needed
Re: Metro "Spanner in the works" Jacklin on BDO announcements
Really? You assume everyone will follow the event. A hell of a lot only go because it's at Lakeside. Many simply wont bother anymore.foggs3355 wrote:Week day one the 1st day both session sold out and if the ticket whet on sale by mid August then freebies won’t be needed

Exactly.
Would I traipse up North or even London to watch the Worlds every year?
Not a chance.

Re: Metro "Spanner in the works" Jacklin on BDO announcements
Been the last two years haven't I?
Friend of mine and his wife get a season ticket every year, have done for as long as I can remember. Would they do the same if it moved?
Nope.
A lot of people would be the same. Numbers would take a massive hit. Anyone who says otherwise need only look at the screenshots of the other big tournaments the last few years.
