When Barney was in the BDO, we could all have a serious conversation about which side was better. I personally think the PDC was always better because it contained the majority of the very best players, but the BDO certainly had the better strength in depth way down the field until at least 2001. Make no mistake, it wasn't the BDO of the past decade.

On Part's graphic he's listed as a 3-time world champion too tbf, there are no other cross-code world champions who have had any involvement in this year's Worlds

And Part's BDO title was probably the weakest of the lot until you get to the dying years of the BDO

Wayne Mardle identifying Raymond van Barneveld's girlfriend Julia Evans as "Bendy Cock". Ben de Kok is Barney's manager.

Sky showed Julia Evans clapping and Mardle said "That's Barney's girlfriend and manager, Bendy Cock".

You gotta be some sort of div to not realise the ‘and’ was referring to the man sitting next to her, I get he says it quickly so it’s like he’s saying she’s his girlfriend/manager


The howler as oche says is that the man wasn’t Ben de Kok either as it turns out

Course it wasn't, it was Van Ke Todger.

Not quite the same this thread.

Will never be a patch on what got served up on the good ship BDO.

It is what it is I guess.

Agreed.

Although I will add that the BDO was on the decline before Barney switched. Lakeside 2006 was poorer than previous years.
