Rather have no friends than ones who persuade you its a good idea to go round someone's house with a hammer to sort someone out

Nicholson, Laura Turner and Adams are all possibilities to join/substitute for Gwynne in the comms box.

The more Laura Turner, the better.

I'm in the camp that they should cut the top end prize money...but they really cannot do it after everybody has qualified surely... Should have been announced earlier.. Players would have still played and those who planned on going to QS would still go to QS

I can't find the actual post on Facebook but in a conversation someone was saying the players have been told the world champs are 100% on in 2021 with sponsors sorted. (They also highlighted how only y the Dutch are not having bdo points thus all is well).

anyone heard this rumour?

Not sure the going rate for a Commentator Chris Mason but i didn`t thing that £3.600 and a hotel room costing £1,350 for 9 days was that bad maybe i`m wrong."

Robert macdougal on the defensive.

Robert Macdougall well that's why your not a commentator, hotel costs are irrelavent to me and are a given in this industry, but you think as a commentator I just rock up and talk and do the punditry? You know how much research goes into doing the bdo worlds? Especially the BDO? I will tell you around about two weeks work before I even get there. As for the going rate about £1200 a day. Staggered that you have even commented, still hope that's cleared a few issues up."

Mason reply.

Seems like Mason agrees with you. Although macdougal did say he stands corrected re what is expected re payment.

not great though all this.

Laura is a fabulous addition to the team. She knows her stuff and has a great voice and tone.

So you think it was okay for Mason to publicly criticise the offer he received from the BDO?

If Mason wanted all this to be kept quiet, he should not have opened his mouth to begin with.

The offer will have likely been from the production company anyway. In any case he didnt give amounts.

Has Robert "The Magic Roundabout" McDougal ever got anything right. He seems a fool of the highest order.

What's it got to do with McDougall anyway? What a strange bunch they are. Deflect, deflect, deflect.

What, the "we've definitely got sponsors lined up for next year, honest" rumour?

Yes, I have heard that one. Several times in fact.

The current bunch at the BDO are a disgrace.. Des wading in on his joint account ( embarrassing enough having a joint account) criticising all and sundry.. Robert MacDougall thinking he's some sort of mouthpiece for the BDO when everything he's ever said or done has turned out to be shit..
What an embarrassment to the BDO these people are
