When someone outside of the blinkered maroon blazer clique is in charge of the BDO who knows it is not the top dog of darts.

So probably never.
2020 World Grand Prix Lucky Dip winner!
2x 2019 Q-School Lucky Dip winner!

Both as valuable as the Lakeside piss pot!

Durrant and his management figuring out a way to switch to PDC possibly.. Not normally a delay is there? I'd imagine his management would want him to switch..

I'd be asking for cash personally, the odds of a bounce out must be quite high

Looking at last year's thread the list was out about half an hour after the deadline by the looks of it. People were discussing the list by 2.30.

Maybe they realised they fucked up with the new rules such as the UK Open qualifiers and trying to make sense out of it?
Still it shouldn't affect posting the final entry list

Martin Atkins, the lube one: http://dartsnews.com/martin-atkins-pre- ... interview/

‘I am going into Q school with an open mind I am expecting it to be tough to get a Tour Card as there are so many good players out there. I’m looking forward to the Challenge. I’m playing well and my self belief is good so hopefully I can achieve my goal of a Tour Card. As for making the switch over the last couple of years I became very disillusioned with the BDO with promises of events not happening, poor promotion of events that did happen, rule changes mid season and generally not moving forward although having enjoyed playing in the BDO for many years I felt I needed a change.’

‘The announcement of no entry fees if you get a tour card is sure to attract more BDO players and other players also as the majority of the events are in the UK. It makes it far more affordable with big rewards compared to the BDO where travelling is all over Europe with not much reward in terms of prize money.’

‘If I get a tour card my ambitions are to climb the rankings and try qualify for the TV events I would love to play in the Matchplay at Blackpool and the World Championship at Ally Aally as the atmosphere looks amazing’.

No announcement of an announcement on the delay

Is it the influx of last minute entries?

Confusion over the criteria (and they're Phoning People)?

waiting for the semi finalists 'cheques to clear'?

where's Mulder and Scully when you need them?

This has more drama than Lakeside
