Will it involve a woman in her 60s photoshopping grammatically incorrect big red text onto a perfectly acceptable existing poster and whacking it on BDO Fanatics, a group of people who dont actually buy tickets?

Same here. Been once. Totally over-rated.
Rather have a kebab and chips.

Nandos is shit.
Always packed out when I walk past to visit more upmarket establishments though.
Must be cheap.

‘World Professionals,
Again my apologies in the delay of getting tickets on sale, this is just simply down to the fact that there is so much protocol to follow and criteria to appease, to get this right for this year and all following years we have to make sure the Venue, Promoter, Ticket Agents, ONE80, L-Style and every one of the New BDO sponsors for this event are in a ‘go ‘ position however, we are extremely close to the tickets being on sale and when that happens I’m expecting an explosion of a campaign.
Please remember that when we have sorted all this out for this year, (with the exception for ticket prices) we ‘put it to bed’ for 10 years!’

10 years. :? :MAD:
What is this 10yr thing mentioned above ? Has des said to the counties that he has signed a 10 yr deal, or will be dping ? And if he has said that has the contract been signed or still not completed?

Hard to work out what's going on when reading fanatics with hints from folk but I guess all will be revealed at a some point!

It would have been an idea to have all that stuff sorted before announcing the venue.. That's how things happen normally.. Then a fixed date is announced when tickets go on sale...
But I do seem to remember talk of a 10 deal with the venue which seems an awful long time given the sponsorship guarantees they would need over that long a period.

I’m sure the major sponsors lined up are over the moon about the delay........

These must be the ones Des said he'd already got in his pitch to take over the BDO.... The secret ones that never sponsored the World Trophy and no doubt won't sponsor the Worlds as well... But they do exist and they are all there 😂
