2022 Winmau World Masters

WDF should have got this on TV. Not sure what Eurosport are showing during the period of the World Masters or Premier/Free Sports

Greyhounds?

I'm not taking the piss, but weren't the viewing figures horrendous for the BDO's Masters events?

Like worse than the station's averages?

BDO were a shambles the last few years in existence, lost most of their status & authority after the farce that was the 2019 World Masters, then the farce that was the 2020 BDO World Championships.

Last few years? Last decade is closer to the truth.

Ooh that reminds me. Sunday will be the 7th anniversary of the New Era annoucement. Calling that a shambles would be generous! Their desperation to stop Duzza from switching accelerated their burial quite a bit.

There was one event on a FreeSports or FrontRunner channel that was outdrawn by some obscure event that followed it IIRC.

Putting your heart before your head was the error but never mind. We live and learn. Well, some of us do. Mr Brown probably didn't learn a thing. He's still out there somewhere...

The World Trophy on Frontrunner had less viewers than pre recorded arm wrestling.

One session of the Masters years ago on BT had 3k viewers. When I get home I will try and dig them out.

tsod and the BDO have shared eerily similar fortunes. I'll get viz to make a graph.
