KNOB OF THE WEEK
Just some of the fuck ups:
- The WDF , the org that claims to be non political, but kicks out players that qualified cos of ...wait for it .....political reasons. How can you call this shit a "world champs" if people from certain parts of the world are forbidden from playing despite qualifying ?
- THE WDF after kicking out FOUR players one of them a former 3 time women's World Champion in Anastasia Dobromyslova, the morons Pinocchio would be replacing her and how she would be the #2 seed.
- The WDF were too fucking stupid to clear it with Pinocchio first and find out if she wanted to play. She did not and basically told them to fuck off, and she would not damage her brand being associated with this shit and who can blame her ?
- The WDF players that won tour cards in q-school were given permission by the PDC to play and most of them, including the staunch midget Warty said no thanks
- The WDF that has no identity of their own and lack any vision or intellect, the WDF that would rather hang their mast on an org that died a slow death and was the laughing stock of the game.
- The WDF who thought starting afresh was to go running back to Bobs run down hotel, and even pick the same week in January as the dead BDO used.
- The WDF that tried to insult peoples intelligence and claim it was cancelled back in January due to covid when everyone knew it was abysmal ticket sales..
- The WDF who have afternoon sessions mid week to accommodate for the extra players, that no one wants to see, and then wonder why ticket sales are shit
- The WDF again lacking any vision chose to retweet old BDO shit to align themselves with that shit instead of distancing themselves from it like any new business would.
- The WDF who have absolutely of their own identity on one hand align themselves with the BDO at every opportunity and then distance themselves at the same time with tweets like this from their Chief development Officer
If the WDF is not connected in any way to the BDO, why are the WDF retweeting BDO shit, picking the same venue as the BDO did, choose the same week in January initially, appealing to the same fan base. Hire their own staff from the same BDO ?How stupid are the WDF when they thought they could sell a BDO type product to BDO fans when the very same bdo fans were not even buying the BDO product of the BDO themselves ????
Answer me that Richard, I know you read here. If the BDO fans could not be arsed to attend BDO events at the time, why would WDF ones be any different. How can the WDF promote a product and have any faith in themselves when they do not even know what they are themselves. A clueless org that has no identity where they are in the game.
Why would the BDO want to be aligned in any way with the BDO, an org that was the laughing stock of the game. Long before the BDO died, the BDO fans had stopped caring, venues were almost empty, and that was before covid, in the final days the fighting between players and officials spilled across social media, The Selecta's threatening players with legal action, police sent to try retrieve trophies, slagging matches across social media, this is the org the WDF chose to cling on to instead of starting afresh.
The WDF Chief Development Officer is stunted and wont be growing.....much like the product he represents. This week the same Development Officer publicly admitted the tickets were too expensive. No shit Einstein !!!. This weekend a ticket to watch absolute jobbers in a run down hotel costs 87 quid and that is before you eat or drink anything and play "Russian roulette" with food and alcohol poisoning, if you excuse the pun. It is just a shame this event did not start a day earlier on April 1st, it would have been an apt date for these morons.
There was a story going around earlier how the WDF were now giving away tickets for the midweek for free, some claiming it is a late April 1st joke, the thing is it is believable that it could be true with this bunch of morons, and what a way it would be to piss off the few real fans they have who paid well over the top to watch a load of shit. If true why would anyone ever again pay for a ticket when they can simply wait for the WDF to give them out free..
TED HANKEY
Some people suggested he should have won Knob of the Week seeing as what he did with his knob got him in this position. Thing is whilst the story made mainstream news this week, it was over 5 months after I and others first heard about it, so hardly breaking news.
Hankey the latest person that came from the BDO system that has made the news for his sexual offenses, he follows in the footsteps of Phil Taylor the groper, Warty the guy who sexually groped a pregnant woman live on TV during Lakeshite, and of course child rapist Tony Eccles. I remember how mushrooms in their effort to praise the bdo would equate the success of a player in the PDC with the bdo as if a players success was down to the BDO, or course by that logic if every players success is down to their time in the BDO, then a players failings and bad habits would also be down to their time spent in the bdo too would it not ? - You cannot have it both ways.
THE PDC PREMIER LEAGUE & PLAYERS CHAMPS
As I said months ago the novelty of the PL would wear off during the middle weeks of this comp and week 8 showed all the signs. A player could rock up every week and win a single game and it is possible he could win the entire league without winning a single nights event. The highlights of the night was seeing the jockanese whinger go bottom with another defeat and also Bellyboy dropping to second from bottom
In Fridays Players champs the PL's bottom 2 met first round and out went Bellyboy early.Long may it continue. The final ended up being the then World #103 Danny Jansen against then world #84 Andrew Gilding. What I found amusing is on one forum where PDC hating simpletons cry endlessly about the PDC being "the same 8 players" one simpleton was crying how it would be a grim final if those 2 made the final. Seems you cannot please those that are intent in finding fault with the PDC regardless.
I believe it was only the 9th PDC comp the 19 year old mullet wearing Dutchie played and he won. Fair play, and as for Gilding, I always found him to be a great watch when on form. Both players still not qualified for the Matchplay, but are now only around 5k off .
Glen Durrant stumbled over the line and finally broke his 14 match consecutive first round defeat run. Admittedly his opponents threw shit, but good for him. That said he is miles away from qualifying for the Matchplay,and with him defending 50k at the Matchplay he could be as low as #40 by the time the Matchplay starts.
Speaking of taking a big hit, Barbara the Twink, who won the worst Matchplay in history when he won in an empty hall during covid in 2020, is defending 150k, expect him to go out early and drop down the ranking, might even drop outside the top 16. When Glen Durrant is beating you, then your game is in the shitter. Ando the Sulk is defending 70k as a finalist., wont be sorry to see him slide down the rankings either. Also defending a semi final spot is the obese entitled cunt Bellyboy which should see MVG who is defending pittance extend his lead over him in the rankings, and Wade who is defending little overtake the fat cunt, if it has not happened well before the matchplay starts.
I thought I would finish off with this pic .....in fact the stats below are taking into consideration that 160 tickets this weekend in a certain section are already sold but no proof of this yet, so even if true and they managed to shift them they sold 20% of tickets in TEN MONTHS of advertising. Take a bow, even the BDO under Des and Popcorn Teeth Williams never sank this low
