Reading the previous page regarding the money the BDO lost running TV events reminded me of this quote from early 2019:

‘People say the BDO can’t compete with the PDC, but that is the biggest load of crap in the world’ - Des Jacklin

£23,650 is the current total of the leading bids (16k of that for one trophy). Bit of a bidding war for it, it seems, 127 bids placed so far.

As deluded as Warren Brown and ten times more dangerous. Those who voted him in should be feeling very sheepish right about now.

There have been a few comments along those lines. Amazing how people's minds work.

If the BDO had listened to the PDC in the first place... is a whole other story.

Again it was the right thing to do to reject hearns offer, And i would still stand by that. He wanted to Vince McMahon BDO and all that would be left is the challenge tour and then Pub. The issue was Croft/Gilbey/Williams/Jacklin ran it to the ground

13 years ago. Very interesting. Mason merrily tearing into the BDO: "An embarrassment... car crash television..."

Must have changed his tune some time after that I guess.

The funny thing. He claims now he was referring to the Fleet game when he mentioned "Car Crash Television" but looking at the footage it appears to not be the case.

Hmm. Yes it sounds clearly like a general attitude. An 'Us [PDC] vs. Them [BDO]' mentality.
