Is Wolfie still in it? The big daft hairy bender.

[1-hit Wonder]

Wolfie's still in it Skel. Beat Walton in a cracker yesterday. Went to sudden death in the final set. Both averaged over 100 by the way so enough talk about the BDO being shit.

Whitlock never won the BDO title yet competes well in the PDC.
Barney has done ok since moving over as has King who has always been a bottler and continues to be.

Personally I prefer the BDO. The standard may not be as high across the board but who really gives a fuck ? I mean its still just men throwing pointy things at a board when it comes down to it. I mean at least the crowd arent a bunch of drunken shits who feel it necessary to shout and scream the whole match and generally act like punks, especially towards the foreign competitors. The way they boo people pisses me off aswell. The atmosphere at the Lakeside seems a lot more respectful of all competitors and only feels the need to cheer when someone actually does something rather than produce a constant wall of noise. Also the sky commentators piss me off. Especially that Geordie fella, fuck me he's annoying.

They (wolfie/walton) didn't average over 100. They both averaged 92. Which is very good but compared to a 100 average looks mediocre.

Whitlock has improved massively in the past two years. He was a part-timer in the BDO and still made a Lakeside final. He himself says he's improved massively because of the full time practise and British base. He is still yet to win a PDC major though like King. Another player that says he improved massively when making the switch to the more professional PDC.

I'm not knocking the BDO, clearly a few of the top players could compete in the PDC, but two of the last 16 - Bunting and Green - were both PDC players that switched back to the BDO citing the PDC tour is too strong. They are now 6th and 7th in the betting for this Lakeside title
