Barry Hearn is a twat, but this made me chuckle. How condascending can you be?

Hearn said: "I've not heard of more than one player going back but if they want to be a good pub player, the BDO is fabulous for them.

"They should go where they're happy. It's easier to play for Leyton Orient than in the Premiership."
strange thing is, i cant see how the BDO lets 'em back?
ive played super league and county darts, your county selection is determined by your super league averages. point i'm tryin to make is......when you sign up for super league, you also sign a contract/form stating that you wont play in any comp not sanctioned by the BDO....ie: PDC,



sooooooo, you turn your back on the BDO, get lucky for a season, then realise you cant cut the mustard. why dont the BDO then tell ya to do one?

Phil Taylor's 110 average was awesome, he is a living legend. Barney missed doubles, that's the worst I've seen him finish for a while.

Re the 9 darter it's worth reminding people Taylor's done 6 on telly compared with Barney's 2.

remember this from 1997...

Hearn said: "The security was appalling. This is a very sad day for Brighton and it could be the death knell for them.We simply can't condone what the Brighton fans did and we will protest."

f***ing ****..always was...always will be

Long live the BDO :clap::clap:

Like him or loathe him, the job he's done with darts is amazing. He's resurrected a sport from the doldrums.

The PDC is clearly superior but calling the BDO f***ing shit when in the last 3 years players of the quality of Barney, King, Klaasen, Thornton, VanDerVoort and Stompe have crossed over is naive.

Gary Anderson and Robert Webster would be competitive in the PDC, Simon Whitlock and Ted Hankey would probably earn a decent living as well.

You can seethe BDO continuing to generate top players, albeit at a slower rate, because they have a structure in place. It would be nice to see some unity but I can't see it for at least another 5 years.

At least the PDC recognise world titles won whilst those players were with he BDO. That's something, I guess.

No when I said BDO is f***ing shit, this year tournament is absolutely shocking. No wonder everyone jumping ship....
