a 2 minutes look ( :grin: ) tells me that about 120 people will be watching the final so far. Plus Jackie of course who is the only person to buy the whole week ticket so he has 24 tables to himself all week at the moment.. :DDD:


let the seething commence

I’m surprised they have sold that many tbh
No guarantee they have been sold I guess, could have been marked as unavailable as they will be given away.

the 120 are real tickets sold I'm sure. Its quite obvious which areas/tables have been left unnavailable at the moment.

I actually think that unless ticket sales improve a lot I am struggling to see the event even taking place, especially if Chris Mason is right about the BDO having virtually no money.

It’s all hinging on what percentage of the door they are taking.

What’s the prize money going to be for the Worlds and if there’s a sponsor who’s going to pay for it, who are they?

As far as sponsorship goes, we have several sponsors in the frame. I don’t know exactly who will be sponsoring what. I don’t know whether it will be one big sponsorship that is apportioned, or whether one sponsor will sponsor the ladies, one sponsor will sponsor the hotel. It will broken down possibly, I don’t know. That’s something that I won’t be personally getting into, all I do is give a yay or ney on the money. What I can say is that the men’s prize fund will stay the same at £300,000. The ladies prize fund will be almost doubled. So will we be going from £29,000 to £54,000 for the ladies. The way that that will be broken down, the first round, second round and semi-finals, the runner-up, their prize money will all double. So, the first round goes from £500 to £1,000, and so on. The winner’s prize fund will go from £12,000 to £20,000.

Haha so several sponsors could in reality be no one.
I’ll be amazed if the prize fund stays the same if the BDO have to foot it entirely out of their dwindling bank account.
