Stop panicking everyone. The delay in payment to players is nothing sinister. Des is currently in a meeting with Kerry Packer, Montgomery C Burns and Grantham Fencing thrashing out a new sponsorship package which will see 48 televised tournaments a year at top venues around the world with County darts as the centrepiece of this brand new dawn. ITV Digital are very interested in televising and Oracle will have live score updates via the teletext button. Future prize funds will quadruple. And anyone who suggests anything in the BDO garden is anything but rosy is a hater, a troll, a keyboard warrior or non-ticket buying scum.

Not sure where that story came from but its clearly not true as Kerry Packer has been dead for about 15 years.

I know humour doesn't always come across in words but I do hope that was a joke 😄

To be fair it's a shameful episode whenever they pay out now.. To be overdue without any comments on such a reduced prize fund is pretty shameful even if paid tonight or tomorrow.

On a serious note : surely Paula had no right to hand out flyers for a bdo event at a wdf /ndb event without asking permission before hand?

Read elsewhere checks are going out this week. So, if true, this is unnecessary.

A comment on Real Fanatics about the non payment farce.... Clued up as ever..

Cheques? Oh come on now. Nothing stopping them doing bank transfers if the money is there.

Paula has a sense of entitlement ever since Des took over and she became the self crowned Queen of the BDO.... No conflict of interests there at all..

I remember the old days when I used to write cheques in the shops for things when I had no money a few days before pay day.. Don't think I've seen a cheque for about 7 years !!.... anyway the contract says Bank Transfer.. Imagine sending cheques to USA and Canada and Australia, Romania etc... No way will it be cheque payments..

This obviously could have been handled better.

Still, we don't know if this is now true. Unlike others on here who hate anyone who plays in the BDO I hope the players get paid.

This thread proves my point about people who openly profess a liking for the PDC spending their free time slagging off the BDO and bizarrely the players within the BDO.

Why would the fanboys be so interested in a organisation they claim to hate? Shouldn't they be in the Premier League thread instead? Let's face it Dave Owens, BlueSpark, and West Riding's best sprinter have little interest in the BDO other than to troll and abuse it.

The players are right to complain but the hatred in this thread is sad.

Not only was the OP of this illiterate, the contract clearly said "bank transfer within 28 days".

But the contract doesn't specify which planet's days, my guess is 28 venus days.

Now into day 30.

Still no sign of the bank transfers, I take it?

How about a BDO bankruptcy notice?
