00:00 - 00:05 | So they're in the BDO board meeting |
00:05 - 00:07 | and Auntie Sue says "Put your hands together, |
00:07 - 00:10 | for the saviour of the BDO, Warren Brown!!" |
00:11 - 00:16 | Well. No fucker had ever heard of him |
00:17 - 00:21 | I think he'd just delivered their sandwiches. |
00:21 - 00:24 | It's fucking true! |
00:26 - 00:28 | "We're putting Warren in charge of major new events" |
00:29 - 00:31 | That's when he starts wheeling out his ideas. |
00:31 - 00:34 | "Free bar all day with a 20 quid ticket!!" |
00:38 - 00:40 | "And we'll hold one of them in an abandoned fishmarket!" |
00:41 - 00:47 | "We'll cram thousands of fans in from all over the country" |
00:47 - 00:50 | "They'll come from all over the place on thousands of free buses!" |
00:50 - 00:56 | This stuff was lunatic but the board loved it. |
00:58 - 00:59 | It was incredible! |
00:59 - 01:01 | Auntie Sue was wetter than an otter's pocket! |
01:04 - 01:06 | Even though it was complete bollocks! |
01:06 - 01:08 | Can you believe they fell for it? |
01:13 - 01:14 | But there's more. "Let's get some of the players to invest their own cash in the events" |
01:14 - 01:16 | "I bet I can get Durrant and Mitchell |
01:16 - 01:20 | to part with a few quid from their own pockets" |
01:21 - 01:27 | "Glen! Scott! Just shove £10K each over here will you?" And they did, too. The daft twats! |
01:35 - 01:36 | Warren must have been laughing his tits off. |
01:36 - 01:39 | Ten grand each! |
01:41 - 01:44 | But seriously. He had some other great ideas. |
01:44 - 01:47 | Like, like, well I can't think of any specific examples. |
01:47 - 01:49 | But I'm sure he had some. |
01:50 - 01:53 | Where did they find this bloke? |
01:54 - 01:56 | Some failed caterer who couldn't even organise |
01:56 - 01:58 | a piss-up in a fishmarket. |
01:58 - 02:02 | Fuck knows where they got him from. |
02:05 - 02:07 | But Auntie Sue was positively moist! |
02:10 - 02:11 | "Free bar all day! Free bar!" |
02:11 - 02:13 | "Potential audience of 250,000 darts fans" |
02:15 - 02:17 | Even though no fucker had attended the WDT on a paid-for ticket for 2 years! |
02:17 - 02:20 | Honestly, you couldn't make this shit up! |
02:21 - 02:28 | A few fans were so gullible they believed this was actually going to happen. |
02:29 - 02:30 | Even bought tickets to it. |
02:30 - 02:32 | "Yeah we'll meet up in London and drink at the free bar" |
02:36 - 02:39 | Then the trusting cunts got upset when the event didn't happen! |
02:40 - 02:42 | Poor deluded souls. |
02:50 - 02:55 | The board actually believed the bullshit that Warren came out with. |
02:56 - 02:58 | At least the counties had the common sense |
02:58 - 03:04 | to book a grand total of zero buses to this fiasco. |
03:04 - 03:09 | They were bright enough to know bullshit when they smell it. |
03:09 - 03:11 | Shame the board aren't as bright. |
03:16 - 03:20 | "Free bar all day!" |
03:23 - 03:26 | Right after the BBC dropped Lakeside and picked up a PDC comp instead! |
03:31 - 03:36 | Barry Hearn must be laughing his fucking knackers off at this! You couldn't make it up. |
