In this new transparent era it wouldn't take much for the BDO to tell Lakeside what is happening, they have been long time sponsors after all , and even more importantly actually tell people what the situation is regarding the Worlds..the new transparent era seems murkier than ever..

"we really hope its actually on and at the Lakeside as we booked the venue and hotel out months ago in anticipation, if its not on we are going to end up losing a lot of money"

Doesnt sound good at all.
Is that a genuine response or a wind up ?

100% genuine
But who has said this and to whom in what context?

Surely if I rang up lakeside they wouldn't just give this info out, or would they?
Literally rang up and asked the bloke if he knew what was going on and that was his response.

Like Ginge have said in the past they are pretty open about it, why wouldnt they be when they are getting it in the neck by people? they can just throw the BDO under the bus for this.
incredible then how the bdo are treating lakeside. They must be edging their bets and keeping lakeside as a back up venue.

reading that it does seem the bdo holds the power in their relationship.

After seeing the size of him he probably just wants reassuring it's still there.

My 27 days prediction doesn't look quite so stupid suddenly.

Judging from the response from Lakeside, nothing is booked. They'll plan something else as there's no point in leaving the hotel empty. No other venues will be available and the event will go to the wall.

It's been coming all year.

No way will they book it out, unless told explicitly that it won't be there.
It's too big a money spinner.

If they move it, it will be a catastrophic move surely.

Unless they have a sponsor willing to shell out loads of cash.
After seeing the crowds for their other events and no terrestrial telly, such a sponsor would be idiots weighing that out.

Completely and utterly. Look at the repeatedly dead WDT events. It's the only place that will shift any tickets.

However, sooner or later Bob will just tell them to sod off.

And so another week passes without a single comment on the future of the flagship BDO event from the BDO themselves or their commercial promotional partners.

Beyond embarrassing.

Meanwhile Des and his Mrs are "having a good time " in the sun and not giving one flying feck as the World Pro disappears clockwise down an enormous khazi of their own making.

I disagree with this as Paula has stated quite openly that she has qualified for 'next' years event.

Which really makes the radio silence on the event rather more baffling
