1) If they don't have it, they don't have it.

2) I think Des is that stupid.

What do you reckon? A statement saying the players will be paid as soon as they can and something about "potential new sponsors"?

well indeed, number 1 is a distinct possibility, hence I said 'if'.
I don't think Des is that stupid but he might think he will have enough money in a week or two and so will either claim he meant working days or, as you say, pretend that he has a sponsor about to pay him some money.... which surely no one will belive.

They will get paid/tomorrow in my view.

Probably need ten more people to sign up for the TORREMOLINOS OPEN 2020 before they have enough to pay out the winnings

GOT TO POST IT AGAIN AS CAN ONLY TAG 100 in post

Spent yesterday afternoon with this man Wayne Warren (a nicer man you could not meet) and guess what he still has not had the paltry £23k prize money from the BDO and today is the last day for them to pay up so I’m urging all the dart players fans and managers be they BDO or PDC to contact the BDO via Facebook Twitter or what ever means to try and push these clowns into doing the right thing"

Des will pay a reduced payout, late, yet will be applauded by the fanatics for doing so.

Paula spent ages sticking fliers out on any table she could find at the Dutch Open. She was closely followed by some irate dutchies who were ripping them off the tables, screwing then up and chucking them away. :)

Do you think it's time we stopped talking about the "fanatics" like they are one entity?

Across the two groups theres probably up to 15,000 members...... Most aren't "fanatics" in the same way that almost all members on here are not "stars of darts". Its a name. They just want to read the latest info and gossip like you do.

Out of those that are BDO die hards, some offer blinkered support but some dont and call it as they see it.

nobody is getting paid apart from the people who keep collecting the entry fees, this will only stop when money stops being sent or courts seize control of the accounts

Maybe Des locked out the internet banking by forgetting to tell the bank he was making a load of large payments today (stop laughing at the back, there!)....wasnt paying the money out a function usually carried out by Potter/Lakeside?
