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’.

The Lincolnshire MC will be the MC of the BDO
Ian Tilley will be back as one of the ref
There isnt any applications IMO and it will be all chosen beforehand

This.
Why would you apply for something when as far as i know no advert has gone out.
Unless the BICC is full of Drupid "memememememe!" types, which maybe it is.

He doesn't seem too upset with them leaving. And does he thank them for their service any were?
Re applications. Folks have said they are applying after hearing the news on fanatics.
The honeymoon is over for des you feel. But he won't go down without a fight.
