Des Jacklins Statement

[el_ringo]

Didn't Paul Booth do the Setanta League of Legends ?

So that's one person with TV experience at least

I fancy Des to be the MC after all he has the teeth for the job if they were really forward thinking they would find some lady to do it

Following the recent resignations of the BDO’s refereeing team, BDO Chairman/CEO Des Jacklin has said he has been ‘overwhelmed with the number of applications from potential successors’.

Speaking today, Des revealed that ‘[t]he numerous applications, from both amateur and professional referees and MC’s range from BICC callers to experienced professionals well known across the darts world’.

‘These applications will be reviewed over the coming days and the new-look MC and referring team will be announced towards the end of next week’.

Des also wanted to reassure players and supporters regarding the status of the BDO, stating, ‘on the subject of recent reports of the BDO being in turmoil, it has been for the last six years, however, only now have we entered a period of clarity’.

Past tense then. So nobody is "switching".

And plural. So at least 2 former PDC referees.

[oche balboa]

Who else has been a PDC Ref ?

[devosteve]

Spaceman was at Blackpool Tower for the wdt. I saw him. But I was with the plebs. He was in the vip area.

Good to see him back.

[ssjsa]

Indeed

Long time no see stranger. You alright?

All good thanks Ginge, just life stuff getting in the way of here.

Some good reads here though.

Well you will have 100 children.

And 1 grandchild since I was last here

Welcome back Dave. Hope all is well with you.

That's Drupes' CV

[Astonvilla]

Surely theres a misprint there when he says "I spoke with the BDO chairman and he was bullish". I think it should read "I spoke with the BDO chairman and he talked bullshit".

[Skewball]

So another fuck up by Des/sportotal. Forgetting the refs in their negotiations.
Another one for the list.

[Dannyboy]

Ah he was just thinking from the Martin Fitzmaurice school of negotiations. Didn’t he say that refs should be calling Lakeside for free when he was getting paid himself?

[devosteve]

I questioned it, what's happening and why no message of future wishes and thanks for all the years of dedication, the response... "ASK THEM" and was Subsequently Blocked, Classy real Classy."


One guy not happy on Facebook.

bit of a mistake not to thank the team but I get the feeling des is not too bothered what folk think?

[Dannyboy]

Has he ever been? His reputation proceeds himself...
