Ive seen elsewhere if he won that game he'd have been tied to the BDO for another year?

they can leave but dont get the prize money i think

What logic is that from durrant staying in BDO for life if he wins this comp or makes the final, Martin Adams II , I hope Williams beats him for his own good

He reckons that at 47 he is verging on too old to make the switch. Its daft really as he is a very good player and while he might not win any majors he would make a good living for himself in floor comps and earlier rounds of TV comps.

Glen is clearly at it here....and not exactly doing it in a subtle manner.....

DEFTLEFTHAND · 12-01-2018 05:32PM

Anyone feel like punching Jackie the Belgian superfan?

Or shoving that hat up his jacksie.

Ah no, only messin.

seanhynes · 12-01-2018 05:32PM

Shouldnt have said he was staying if he made the final puts all the pressure on himself

He played like this against Paul Hogan last year too. Hogan didn't have the bottle to finish him at the time though

Durrant would have preferred play whithead given he's close mates with Williams and he beat him last month , tricky playing a close pal , he's gaining some momentum now , can see Williams cracking

Apologies Glen, spoke too soon......some transformation in his game the last three sets.

Williams falling apart

peteeeed · 12-01-2018 05:53PM

Great bullseye that

Rock Lesnar · 12-01-2018 05:53PM

He actually looks like hes about to burst out crying

seanhynes · 12-01-2018 05:54PM

He's badly shaken Williams , dont think he will win a single leg more

he has a serious job on big bucks
if he joins pdc then he has to go full time at the darts
so more to it

BoroMan32 · 12-01-2018 06:11PM

Fair enough Jim went off the boil a bit, but Glen didn't exactly give him many chances....

Those last 4 sets were some of the finest darts you'll see.

Vomit everywhere... ohh im sick...

Absolutely raging

Our first >100 Avg Match! Well done Glen Durrant! Apparently its the first avg over 100 in 4 years at the BDO!

sc86 · 12-01-2018 06:16PM

hes waisted in the bdo - id love to see how good he would be full time

Aye he seems to have the potential, if he went at it full time, to make some very decent wedge in the PDC, defo top 10 material potentially, not sure why he doesn't make the jump, its clearly which side the bread is buttered.

For sure.. just go back and look at how competitive he was at the Grand Slam.. He can throw 104/105 avg no bother to him.. Its a massive waste of his talent but let him on.. If he wants to be the big fish in the little pond then leave him to it

sc86 · 12-01-2018 06:19PM

as said hes on big money with job he has so no real need for him money wise

Rock Lesnar · 12-01-2018 06:20PM

I could be wrong but was Durrant in the PDC a few years ago?

How much is big money with the job? MvG made 1.4m from the PDC last year. with plenty of others earning very decent wedge, another 2 over 500k, and a further 8 over 200k?

think its 6 figure

thats the 2 year order of merit id say your looking at ?

he would make good money no doubt

kentoccfc · 12-01-2018 06:35PM

Let Durrant keep being the big fish in the small pond, when he could easily double his annual earnings with a year in the PDC

That's one year 1/1/17 to 31/1/17 for PDC only from here .

Durrant is a post man isn't he? Hardly huge money. Theres an awful amount of traveling if you want to make money in the PDC too, maybe he doesn't want it.
