Alcinas out, Steve Douglas (Sat) / Aden Kirk (Sun) in.

Thanks for the info. I've just seen Toni will participate in the DARTSLIVE event on Sunday.

[Zeyes]

Jerry Hendriks has also withdrawn and been...

... replaced for Saturday. As no further PDPA Associate Members had entered Sunday's event, this will now feature 127 players, with the number one seed receiving a Bye in the first round.

Oops.

Ryan Harrington is the Saturday replacement.

[masticman]

Why no Maishy?

Didnt have the money for it

[ifm]

I've been thinking, as i've paid to employ markers for the day can i send them to the carpark to fetch my vodka bar for me?

[Bruce Terrett]

Far Cough!

Far Cough!

Thinking more i think i have found a way to improve the pay conditions, when a player wins the board they "win" the marker till midnight.
I'm sure that's worth an extra fiver.
I'll ask Rod to slip a clause into the contract
You're welcome.
