There can only be one winner this week: step forward the BDO Board, with Sue Williams at the head of it all.
Another
week of utter clusterfucks. The World Darts Trophy, only 4 weeks away
today, was moved to Lakeshite only on Thursday this week, after people
will have bought tickets for the event as well as booked hotel rooms,
flights and train tickets.
What earns Sue the title this week is
that she allowed tickets to be sold for up to SIX DAYS after the
Manchester venue booted them out. Six days of people booking non
refundable hotel rooms and travel before the event was announced as
being moved over 200 miles away.
Will they get a refund? No fucking chance.
Add
to that her letter writing skills. Two this week: one to the counties
advising of a change in venue for next week meeting, on which she puts
the wrong postcode and goes into embarrassing detail about the fuck up.
The
other letter was sent to players, first of all blaming the forums for
the mess the BDO is in, before then blaming the venue for having the
nerve to ask for extra money for extra days!
Oh, and the WDT qualifier entry form had the wrong phone number on it until it was amended yesterday.
All
in all, an utterly fucking embarrassing week all capped off by Grandad
Potter saving the day. Pound signs in his eyes no doubt at people buying
food and ale in his bar.
In other news, a special mention
this week goes to Tony O'Shea. He isn't short of money, yet has decided
to go to the Denmark Open on a COACH! The Travel Club lives on.
