Who on earth is Ross Baker?

Dan Hutchinson @dh0967
Sorry but this is several weeks in a row with copy and paste journalism and false information/unedited information. Needs to stop.

Anyway it looks like the German may now be able to do Q School, if not three quarters of it, as he has drawn a prelim player. So won't be on until at least the Sunday.

My guess is Mr. Beresford either misread it OR Pieter had such a panic he deleted the entirety of "Mcnoloyalty v Scott"

Panic editing. What colour would you like the internet wrapped in?

Good Job(son) it wasn't mine. Pretty sure there'd have been a Parlettit in there somewhere.

Good. If he is only going for eligibility for CT/ET and whatever, playing one day would be enough. Not sure what he's up to.

Can't even be arsed to watch the 12-minute draw video himself, proper journalism that.

Hint to Pieter: You can fast-forward Youtube videos in 5-second increments with the cursor keys, makes 'em much quicker to get through.

That goes for Mandigers and Veenstra as well. Mandigers is crap but would like to see Veenstra make the switch

BDO website:

"As always, the draw has thrown up some exciting first round clashes! Tony O’Shea makes his Lakeside return against the number 4 seed Wesley Harms, Canada’s David Cameron faces 2019 debutant Andy Hamilton, Mark McGeeney plays Derk Telnekes and reigning Men’s World Champion Glen Durrant could face another clash with Winmau World Master Adam Smith-Neale or Canada’s David Cameron, who makes his sixth consecutive appearance to name just a few!"

Cameron is playing who, exactly?

To be fair he's been at Lakeside so many times he's practically part of the furniture. Another embarrassing cock-up.

Also laughable that Tungsten Tales have ripped the video straight from the BDO official page to rehost on their channel:

A comment from that video:

Martin Adams(Wolfie) was not in the draw! Did he not qualify for the 2019 world championships? #ItsNotTheSameWithoutYouWolfie



Oh, and I've just realised I got one of the munters' names wrong in the original post... and Pieter hasn't even noticed!

Absolutely bloody dire, but worth a watch after dads army on gold just to continue the comedy.

The outrage over a couple of silly names for a few players....dear God.

Oh dear oh dear. It's so poor, honestly. Getting it fast is more important than getting it right, sadly.

glorious stuff from the darting journalist jobbers. covering the BDO motto is: jobbers on jobbers.

Adam Smith-Neale has broken his foot, looks like he faces a race against time to be fit for Lakeside
