Paul saying on fanatics that a director has said the bdo snow the O2 are pleased with initial sales. More sold than folks are saying.
He also said Des was an astute multi millionaire businessman who knew what he was doing

That's about just over 70 people per session in a 1600 capacity room they need to sell at least 10x this amount to look at least respectable

Did you compare day tickets with season tickets as it looks like the season tickets are designated tables that are greyed out in the day tickets section as if they are sold.

Yep - took all the various allocations into account. As near as dammit this is the number actually sold, including the various packages over the week, which amounted to very little.

They need to sell a lot more full stop. But given only 840 are for the stage area, I think they can be selling far less than 700 to look ok on tv, and almost all sold so far are for the main stage area.

I really cant see them selling 1000 in a weekend, especially when they only sold what looks like 50 all weekend for this and next to nothing for the world trophy.

Ill guess that areas have not been released.

I think the weekend might get 800 to 1000 sold the midweek afternoon session will look bad on tv if only 250 300! Sold he has said the men’s will still be 300k who paying for that

I think they should take 20k of winners and even prize fund out 2000 3500 5000 8000 18k 40k 80k that’s still 300k

Gone a bit quiet on the old 'they won't sell any tickets' front. No matter how many times you all say the opposite, the BDO is thriving.

I know, I must had been mad spending those 5 minutes. Still, better than reading about Brexit.

I will ignore your second sentence based on your mental issues

He's up there with Drupes with his narcissism. No matter how many tickets are sold or how good the Masters was, Skewball & Co just won't accept the BDO is going from strength to strength.
