I get it gaz, you want to surround yourself with people who agree with everything you type and anyone with independent thought will be forbidden from joining.
It's an extension of the comments on your blog which were inexplicably turned off as soon as they disagreed with you.

Not a chance would I pay that.
Yes but it's only a £3 admin fee so it's ok.

Viagogo are a joke.
No chance I would be buying vastly over priced tickets off there.
Unfortunately, all tickets appear to be sold out for all sessions, so you have no choice but to pay over the odds for fan to fan resale ones.
I agree with what you have been saying in principle Rout, gone are the days when it was first come first served on all tickets.
Halcyon days.

Just a slight ammendment...

They just need to ban them being sold for a profit imo.

I agree.
I see not many other posters are the same, but nevertheless, I agree.

Sorry to be a pedant, but didn't some of the Caribbean players enter the North American qualifier? Not knowing that this would take place? Are they still going to be eligible?

Well geographically they should be able to, I wonder if it's because it's classed as a British protectorate?

No its because the PDC have forgotten about them and the PDC are cunts. Or something.

Also there will be East European Qualification which takes place in Budapest on 30th September. Ratajski is going to attend so we can finish all the discussions about in which championship (PDC or BDO) he prefers to play.

They've been represented in the past so it is nothing new. If you read the pdc article it even says they've had representatives from the region previously

True. But they dropped it a pretty long while ago so it feels like South America is virgin teritory for darts. All it took was one man from Brazil to win some games on the PDC circuit and they suddenly rediscovered they forgot a continent for far too long. Better late than never.

Did those players get through a South American or North American qualifier?

I believe it was a "Caribbean Qualifier", you usually find Guyana/Suriname/French Guyana (the three little countries at the top of South America) get bundled in with the Caribbean when it comes to sport, and Madhoo was from Guyana.
