The BDO is soooo substandard it's cringeworthy. Did anyone see the PDC final? Amazing!

I saw it, what a fantastic Final and better for having no Taylor i feel.
I had money on Anderson and thought Lewis was fantastic! thought he might Crumble but under the guidance of Keith Dellar he has matured and showed that new found better temprement and didnt let the elation of a 9 dater cloud his mind and focussed in on winning.
Great,great game!
BDO is getting no better, Scott Waites should leave it asap and get over to the PDC as he showed he has the game in last 2 years at Grand Slam

Adams will get his name on the trophy he couldn't get anywhere near to with a decent field. I hate Adams. He thinks he is up there with the best but won't switch!! BDO isn't worth winning for years now. Who did Adams beat when he won it. Noone!

So why didnt the others stay? They earn much more! He claims it is because he doesn't want to lose England Captaincy.

PDC is far superior to BDO there is a few players who could do well in PDC though such as Stuart Kellet, Scott Waites, Dean Winstanley and maybe Gary Robson, players like hankey and adams will never switch though

actually martin phillips would be good in pdc and fitton of old not now he is playing so badly, john walton could maybe do well in pdc but doubt he would get top 20 he would be an outsider around the thirties most likely

None of them are good enough. Hankey maybe if he can be consistent.

thats hankey's big problem and to be fair the problem for all the bdo players, pdc players are more consistent and seem a fair bit better too any bdo player will find it tough if they switch to the pdc

Martin Adams lost the captaincy of England back in June!
BDO is poor mans darts!
Scott Waites wont go over to the PDC. He said that he got £100,000 for the Grand Slam and thats paid his bills and tour expences in the BDO for the next 12 months. He is more than happy in the BDO.
Klassen, Van Gerwen, Part, Mardle, Taylor, Anderson, King, Webster all the decent players in the PDC have come throught the ranks of the BDO. The only exception is Lewis who Taylor trained himself.
BDO got offered £1 Million by Barry Hearne but they declined it. They have hardly any tournaments on TV. Whos going to watch the BDO Mickey Mouse Classic live from the Rathmore Club when you can have the Premier League from the O2 Arena

it wasnt just a million pound offer though he offered to pump more money into youth darts etc but bdo declined as you said despite it not going to vote for all counties in fact its alleged majority voted to let pdc buy them out but the board decided against it so really if that is the case bdo's argument that they want to develop the best darts blah blah blah is **** and bull if they did the investment from the pdc would have been taken but hey ho they wont get an offer again as pdc in response setup new tournaments like youth world cup, world cup and a couple others so there calendar is far superior to bdo's and bdo now has nothing to offer the pdc, bdo will most likely disappear in the future and only pdc will be there, ps almost certain adams is still england captain ? they mentioned it last night when watching the bdo final
