Moaning that the women were only there in the PDC for their "teeth and tits" when the walk on girls probably made more than most on the BDO women's tour.DavidOwen67 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 06, 2019 4:16 pmChrist.

Totally ignoring the issues raised to have a moan at the "haters", its like BDO Fanatics Lite
(No-one on the music Lethem plays on the radio has ever used their looks to make money I'm guessing.)
"Where are the female callers?" Because you couldn't move for them in the BDO for the last 30 years of course.

Anybody who celebrates the BDO being in such dire straits, and would celebrate it going bust, is 1) not a darts fan and 2) doesn’t understand how the sport is run. I know that pretty much sums up most people on something like TSOD, granted.
1. Just a little bit disrespectful?
2. We know how darts is being run very well on the BDO side, if you look at the last few months of posts!

They genuinely think that if the BDO vanishes, all grass root darts vanishes.

Could go in a number of threads this one.

Yes. People will be forced to stop playing in pubs, in local leagues, Superleague and especially county.Ginge wrote: ↑Sat Dec 07, 2019 7:32 amThey genuinely think that if the BDO vanishes, all grass root darts vanishes.

None of these can happen as Des and the BDO organise them all.
In fact, I could be in trouble with the WDF for having an unsanctioned, unregulated practice up The Willy last night.

There will be a 2 pund levy for all matches played in pubs as from 2021. Especially up your Willy.DavidOwen67 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 07, 2019 12:20 pmYes.

Re: BDO tournaments no longer recognised by WDF and BDO relegated to Associate Member
The WDF is the World Governing Body so it makes sense that they should run any world ranking system and should be running any World Championships. Official tournaments should be run by that nation's Federation. You don't get other Federations running official tournaments in other nations, why should the BDO? Unofficial fun events are fine, but official WDF recognised events should be run by the relevant Feds.

The rest are fighting over crumbs.
The BDO messed up the Masters draw and the WDF did nothing.
The BDO asked for points money, the WDF saw weakness and stuck a knife in the BDO.
Hopefully, once the BDO is dead, the WDF will work with the PDC on creating an effective support and feeder system.

JDC was offered to the bdo who turned it down?!
You can't blame des for the mess but he hasn't helped. (Slight understatement from Fitton ).
