He has gone out tonight. Although I bet he wishes he was going to Barneys region.

I really can't see there being two TV events in Germany in such a short period of time. Until it's announced otherwise I will assume it means the Euros. You'll notice it's careful not to say 'a NEW televised event', just a 'televised event'. Sounds like it is simply a nice slant by the PDC to parla...

How else can you describe a 'premier league' which isn't qualified for on merit? A sixth of the men at the Zuiderduin didnt qualify on merit, for what is termed the WDFs 3rd major. Maybe they should get their own house in order first before critisising a PDC non-ranking invitational tournament, whi...

No it does not. Wildcard is based on money (box office). Money comes from RTL. Stompe gets wildcard. Very simple. But Stompe isn't Box office. He might be in Holland if they are showing the PL there. Yes sir. Well if the discussion is 'Which player do the Dutch want to see get a wild card.?', then ...

He is more interesting to watch then any of the other Dutchies.

Going back to the "Outer Mongolia" point, how does the WDF World Cup actually work? Are there pre-qualifying competitions for various regions, or is it just a case of, if you can afford to send the team, you;re in the draw?

In a nutshell, yes.

Probably not. He will go out in the quarters or semis and declare 2011 over when he does.

and getting to the semis is then a crappy achievement.?

In Barneys mind - yes.

The new Dutch TV deal will start with the PL 2011, not before.... I don't think the point is that . This is on Dutch TV and also RTL7 will be watching and not happy that their investment was based onn the fact that there is 5 or 6 quality players in the PDC . am also guessing that part of that tv d...

oh come on Bradders you do spout some rubbish but do you really expect Barney to go out to Steve Hine? Probably not. He will go out in the quarters or semis and declare 2011 over when he does. he is trying to help our sport in a positive manner. Can't agree more. Plays all the Tour events, doesn't ...

Oh well.

keep it the same.............whats the problem? Too short now the standard has drastically improved. Indeed, I think best of 3 sets would be appropriate as players play sets later in the draw - to qualify for these events players have to win best of nine leg matches.
