2018 BDO World Championship- Lakeside- 6th-14th January

[Skewball]

Anymore on TT's rumours that the BDO are reconsidering this stance and the players contracts?
I cant believe even they would be that stupid to row back on it after Q School has finished.

Well as already pointed out (somewhere), the contracts are null and void anyway at the moment given they still cant 100% guarantee the same prize fund for Lakeside 2019....

Well indeed. I mean you had to be pretty stupid to believe they were anything other than null and void at all. But risking money due to you was always the issue, which obviously the Lakeside Fab 4 were not prepared to do. Thing is until someone challenges them they can just sit there. If either Menzies or Hughes (Fitten etc)were prepared to turn up and play in a ranking event I suppose thats where it gets interesting.

read of fanatics that those players have been removed from the BDO order of merit. If that is true then I guess TT heard a rumour that has proved to be false.

But TT did say that it was a credible source that has proved reliable in the past. Glen Durrant has said he will be furious if rumour is true.

Maybe this is all an invention or maybe there is actually a power struggle going on behind the scenes with the different factions holding different positions?

[Ginge]

Yup, Hughes/Menzies/Fitton no longer there

well played Ginge calling the " I was joking" excuse Paddy was ready to use.

[Paddy McGinty]

I always thought Ginge was a bit more savvy than that........you live and learn I suppose.
