Seems even the gimps on Twitter are not happy that their beloved BDO sold out to BT. #wewontpaytowatch

If they won't pay, and so not included in viewing figures, why would BT pay for any of these new events that need to be on TV to have any chance of success?

PDC have long term TV deals for all their majors and the BDO have none. No guarantee their World Championship will be televised next year

Was BT Sports steaming drunk when it paid for rights to show the BDO darts?

Sean Doull ‏@SeanDoull
There's a better standard of darts on sore head day up the golfy than at the lakeside

Tim Bolton ‏@timbolton1
I'm better than most of these BDO darts playes

Alan Smith ‏@alansmith90
Watching the BDO darts after the PDC final is like taking a trip to Chicken Cottage after dinner at the Chiltern Firehouse

liam dawson ‏@daws128
How is @BDOdarts allowed on TV. crowd silent commentary shocking and better players down the local pub.

Nick Goff ‏@nickgoff79
TOP TIP: Create your own BDO darts match by writing the number 501 on a piece of paper and subtracting 26 or 41 from it every 20 seconds.

ian pne bamber ‏@ianbamber1
Been watching the BDO darts on bbc it's awfull no atmosphere in the crowd and the darts are awfull not a patch on @OfficialPDC #awfull

Pat Potter ‏@potterthebookie
Interesting that the BBC will pay to broadcast the annual joke that is the BDO darts but won't touch Racing.

Ewan Murray
Switched the BBC darts on there.. Ted Hanley had 21 darts and still wasn't on a finish. Tremendous stuff.

Ross montgomery is pish

Tom Craze ‏@Box_Bet · 11 mins11 minutes ago
Back at Lakeside, Ross Montgomery left Shanghai to finish. Ended up hitting single 1 (twice) and resorted to 18 to round up the 20. Amazing.

Even Oche is laying into the filth on display. That's when you know the BDO are fucked.

The 4 wildcards for the @DeLuxeSE Players Championship should not go to Hankey.... but a young player in his place like Nick Kenny #Darts
