Oh god. I'll go have a look...

My own take on it is, he probably logged into his account in error thinking it was his R0bson one.

Q. Of course you are a four time BDO Lakeshite World Champion recently it was announced that a new PDC World Championship Ladies Qualifier would be introduced, what are your thoughts on that and is there potential for you to play in it?

A. I would love to play in something like that, however to avoid myself from being disappointed if it doesn’t happen I try not to think to much about such matters until they are in black and white. [ie. BDO are cunts]

Q. Speaking of the PDC you have previously played on the Challenge Tour, what did you make of that experience and if the new rules concerning Q-School hadn’t come in would you have played this year as well?

A. I like the opportunity of improving my game and that gave me the chance to play against some top quality players so what’s not to love. I wish I could do more. [ie. BDO are cunts]

Q. Also do you think that the PDC/BDO should look at potentially adding ladies such as yourself who are current major champions into the Grand Slam of Darts?

A. I would love to play in the grand slam, I also think a lot of fans would like to see some ladies play in it. Maybe they could have a ladies grand slam wouldn’t that be great.

The women grand slam idea sounds like a pisstake though. She knows that ain't happening. Maybe the BDO can put up an event and name it the Grand Slam. There are a fucking shitload of meaningless events there so give or take one, don't matter.

That's not a bad idea actually. The more clueless they are, the less they are going to complain.
