Deserves everything he gets IMO, obviously knew what he was doing.

Definitely can't see him playing darts again PDC or BDO

Oh my goodness. This won't just end his darts career, he's going to struggle to get another job ANYWHERE. Massive ramifications.

How on earth is this turning into a PDC/BDO debate?

Some things actually transcend the great darting divide you know.

It's not really even a darts issue mate.

If guilty I hope they throw the book at him.

No no no, its all Barry Hearns fault, corrupting all these players by offering them a chance to make a living (!)

EDIT - why has my post been edited? Olly Croft said in an interview he met his wife when she was only 13? It is a matter of record.

The law in Holland will deal with this. Klassen will have to face up to the consequences of his actions. Are the West brothers celebrating his downfall? Those twitter comments make themselves out to be really nice, balanced guys! Hoping he gets raped in prison: was that the implication of one twitter? I'll need to re read that one. Hope sponsorship companies read twitter: nice mature comments from professional sports people.

Hope Klassen doesn't do anything stupid. His darts carreer (i think) is over but that doesn't mean his life is.

It's despicable behaviour whether it's BDO , PDC or a bloke down the pub!
Ecky mentioned about how a certain poster normally jumps on any alleged misdemeanour by players of the BDO and that he has been quiet so far, I am of the same opinion as Ecky on this.

Don't get carried away here: he'll probably won't see the inside of a prison. Most likely he'll be fined, has to perform some community services (200 hours or so) and he'll have a conditional sentencing of 3 months or so.

My advice to anyone in the public domain would be to steer clear of twitter, it will only get you in trouble.

Agree: the law will give an appropiate sentence. But in the midst of a storm, some people do very sad things, thinking there life is over, or being unable to accept the shame etc. He's the one who, it seems, is guilty here but there is a difference from darts fans posting there views and fellow professional players.

Just think the west brothers come over in a really bad light here. Totally unprofessional.
