And another thing.

This is what cracks me up the most about BDO 'fans', they STILL take the BDO seriously after all that shit and STILL think lakeside is the be-all and end-all of darts.

The delusion and suspension of disbelief is simply mind-boggling.

or when most people tune in on you tube it is to watch darts and not laugh at the cunts

It's an amusing mechanism for sure. They take it on faith that Lakeside is superior to anything the PDC put out, but with Lakeside (and the rest of the BDO) declining further and further, it necessarily means they have to denigrate the PDC in more and more shrill terms, too, because otherwise the superiority fiction no longer holds up - and that would send the whole house of cards crashing down.

This has just appeared..........

Bumpety. Who remembers this heroic work of fiction...

2017 not off to the best start either. Was the Players Championship (RIP, possibly twice) on the 2017 calendar too?

How many actually happened?

According to the NEW ERA WATCH thread:

1. CANCELLED
2. CANCELLED
3. DATES AND VENUE CHANGED
4. DATES CHANGED
5. DATES AND VENUE CHANGED
6. AS SHOWN
7. CANCELLED
8. DATES AND VENUE CHANGED

Dear god almighty.

Would love to have known what the plan was with some of them. Multiple days to play the Gold Cup and the one for Superleague teams?!

All I do remember is that the first day of the 'Players Championship' (a Thursday) was to be a qualifying event of some kind (possibly never clarified) for county players, and there'd be a goody bag containing free tickets to the Rainton Meadows event. The lack of proper communication about that aspect was laughable and just a game of whispers, but no worse than what's happening right now really.

Watch your steps.

Posts like that will get you in trouble. You will be accused by dwarfs of being under my spell and influenced by MH and i in to only attacking the bdo on our orders.

ZOMG!

Someone might threaten me with a slap!

To my eternal shame, no one's threatened me with that yet.

Ah yes. Apparently London county were the only one told about it and they were planning to flood the qualifier with London players.

Any luck?

What's the betting that when the current fuss in the BDO has died down the players and 'fans' will just carry on as normal and act like none of this ever happened?

It's a 100% certainty, there can't be anyone thicker than a BDO player/fan on the fucking face of the earth.

Correct. A few wins at the GSoD will reset morale, and once again there'll be 'something to build on', 'lessons to learn'...

just remember the bdo board life cycle

[Zeyes]

I forget - are Sue and Wayne not up for re-election at this year's AGM, or was the rule change to two-year terms already enacted in 2015 and they're up this year?

[Justin Credible]

only the board can sack the board

Doesnt matter either way, no one in the BDO can be bothered to do fuck all about them anyway.

Spend a lot of time moaning, but do nothing about it is the order of the day.

There's more chance of North Korea voting Kim Jong-un out
