absolutely superb from Nicholson, him and Whitlock could be what gets darts going in Australia. Congratulations to the lad.

 

First premier league night is pretty soon?

 

Feb 11th. And then Bournemouth on Feb 18th!

Yes, hardly a surprise - they won't even have any dialogue. Would be interesting to know how close the vote was at the county meeting.

It was 56-8 against the takeover happening.

 

However it's likely Croft twisted more than a few arms. . . .

Do we know which counties voted for?

I don't personally, but the ones that voted 'for' were likely to be the leagues that are crying out for financial support. I heard on the grapevine that 4 or 5 BDO county leagues came within hours of going to the wall last year.

 

On the other side of the coin I think there are concerns within leagues as to where Hearn and the PDC want to take the grass roots side of the game. Just one element is that before the takeover proceedings came about, there were rumours that the PDC were considering taking legal action against the BDO to drop the words "world" and "professional" from the title of the BDO Lakeside tournament.

 

Besides the chances of it being a free vote were practically nil I suspect.
