Busy promoting Torromelinos today, and various Lincolnshire comps, but nothing on the Worlds. It's as if they want it to fail.

(I don't believe it'll do any good anyway as there's plenty of opportunities for people to watch darts all year, and cheaper as well.)

The indi ‘goat’, sums it up really.

It a shame it looking like going to Bom if they just get 500 people on the session at least it won’t look so bad

I did see someone on Twitter claim, without a hint of irony, that he was going to wait for cheaper tickets to appear on Viagogo.

Erm.....

This is going to be an unmitigated disaster.

Personally was hoping that the BDO could make a success of their WC at the Indigo, and this would be the catalyst for that organisation to take a step forward.

Hugely disappointing that Des's latest catastrophe is probably going to bankrupt the BDO.

christ, there really does need to be an explosion or the BDO is taking a massive hit on this event. If they need to pay production and prize money, and apparently a fee for the agent who brokered the deal then they are now where near yet.

The 24 (I think) tables still reserved for all week tickets being released (which will happen) should make a difference, anyone with a brain should wait for that really. if they time it right they could get front row, centre of the board tickets for any session soon.

They sold a third of the capacity within 48 hours. A third of the capacity for 14 Lakeside sessions is a lot more than 2000...

It's really not looking good for the BDO and the players this.

Looks like most midweek will be playing to an audience no bigger than that at a county weekend.
