Awful move into a soulless venue that has no history whatsoever. The lakeside was a brilliant venue.

When is @BarryHearn
buying the BDO over and just making 1 organisation or at least use it as a feeder. BDO has finally died today. A shame really

The new Piss Palace: the Inhabitable Indigo.



The layout reminded me of something...

Had to happen , bob potter had a strangle hold on darts this now breaks free off that x

Let's get down to the business side of this.

Potter covered a huge amount of the prize fund and decided enough was enough, he offered to cover less.

Uncle Des being the Boris Johnson of darts reckoned he could get a better deal and went for the O2.

He's agreed to pay the rental which we don't know how much and cover the prize fund.

In return the BDO keep the ticket sales and any sponsorship they can get, also a small portion of Eurosport advertising revenue.

Hello guys, we're back to the "New Era"

[The Ginge Reaper]

Des was never a fan of Lakeside, i doubt he even tried to get a deal out of Potter.

I think the word you're looking for is 'uninhabitable'

Is this your speculation? Or have you been told this?

[Safc]

Don't think it's the right venue for darts but at least its modern and accessible

I think the venue is fine.

It's the product that's the main issue.

I’ve saved up to treat 8 mates to a fantastic weekend out next year. We won’t be going now. The Lakeside is world darts. #BIGMISTAKE

The winner gets 1st prize in the raffle and an evening with Paula Jacklin.

We await the prize fund etc but on a e value it looks like progress.

[Keyz180]

If I may summarize and bring together some of the discussion. Seems to me those who defend BDO participation in GSOD are saying there is a shiny turd or two in a pile of turds. Lets remember shiny or not still turds.

Well said that man

Arise sir, never a truer word said. What a clusterfuck of jobbers, has beens and never will be’s.

If this guy saved up to treat 8 mates he is a sad twat.

[Pigpen]

Is it all because Bo
"never won a game on the Lakeshite stage" ?

Cant wait for the comparison photos between this final and the Premier League final a few weeks later.
I know its a different part of the O2 but it will still be amusing

[cannibal]

Ffs, they just turned the BDO championship into a money loser. Ginge get on the blower and find out what the rents are for a week.
