Machin is out. A 5-0 win for him and Wade losing 5-0 still wouldn't be enough.

He [Barney] also brought with him a broadcasting partner and a whole new fanbase, also the BDO now have a contract in place which means any players playing qschool forfeit their lakeside prize money.

steven prince@stevenwbaprince
Was Waites offered a PL place after he won the Grand Slam or was that just rumour?

chris mason@Chris180Mason
Not sure, was he @BarryHearn ?

Boasting about player development while drawing up paperwork to prevent it. Welcome to the BDO.

If only there was a way to make some money while bombing out early at Lakeshite.

Better still I think there should be another cross code event another big stage opportunity for the BDO players so it wouldn't be such a foreign thing when they get to Wolverhampton.


Another cross code comp?! They'll be making it best of 5 legs next.
Yeah, as Rogg said the BDO's big name players could make the effort to try to qualify for the UK Open for a change if they wanted another big stage opportunity...

That said, as I mentioned elsewhere the other week, as much as the BDO has declined it would probably be appropriate if the GSOD invitations were withdrawn altogether and the PDC simply invited 8 BDO players directly to the UK Open at the expense of 8 pub qualifiers. Wonder how that would go over if Mitchell et al. didn't have to qualify but weren't guaranteed any prize money in their "big stage opportunity" in the PDC.

As per usual they cant make any sort of money in the BDO, so out comes the begging bowl. Please sir can I have some more - far worse than Oliver Twist you scumbags!

That's why the Slam with BDO players has lost its appeal. Good seeing the likes of Menzies but Mitchell bombing every year picking up free money. The BDO number 1 seemed out of his depth at times, and don't get me started on a best of 9 legs.
