i don’t think Menzies is a full shilling.

That was some performance from the young lad.

Durrant on the verge of going out, losing 4-2.

el_dazza · 12 Jan 2018 at 16:50

Durrant on a mission here. Back to 4-3.

4-4..

He really doesn't want to go to the PDC.

He actually really does. He’s in a bit of a no lose scenario here.

marc2003 · 12 Jan 2018 at 17:06

Apparently he said it's BDO for life if he gets through??

Just said it again. Dunno what that's all about, maybe multiple champions can't switch?

Oh, Durrant said if he lost he'll switch, if he wins (which he just has) then he'll stay forever.

Barney has multiple BDO titles?? Anyway, that's mad from Durrant and I'm sure he reserves the right to change his mind. Surely the $$$ will make him switch sooner rather than later.

robfosters · 12 Jan 2018 at 17:13

He won’t stay forever. Hell be mad to. Even the mediocre players earn a few hundred grand a year in the PDC.

That was many moons ago though! They only introduced the rule a few years back that if you made the semi finals then switched to the PDC you forfeited your prize money from the BDO.

robfosters · 12 Jan 2018 at 17:22

I’d have quit the BDO just for that rule. How spitefully meally mouthed can you get?

thers a good doco on the split from the BDO to the PDC, if you've not seen it its worth a watch here.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ryz-39eyrXg

el_dazza · 14 Jan 2018 at 16:27

I'm saying Duzza will walk this either 7-0 or 7-1.

el_dazza · 14 Jan 2018 at 17:11

Mcgeeney takes the first set

robfosters · 14 Jan 2018 at 18:22

4-3 McGeeney.

marc2003 · 14 Jan 2018 at 18:29

I keep expecting Durrant to put his foot on the gas but it's not happening.

el_dazza · 14 Jan 2018 at 18:33

Pretty level so far. Didn't expect this, Durrant has the class to kick on though.

robfosters · 14 Jan 2018 at 18:40

Durrant putting his foot down now.

marc2003 · 14 Jan 2018 at 18:44

Yep, first set against the darts.
