You would think people would struggle to find any fault from this but..........

"So basically MVG just got 500 k richer. Well done to him. Boring"

"1 uk qualifier 1 rest of world , after the last experiance with PDC and ladies will be interesting to see who plays in a one off Event ." (Take it that means Deta wont be entering then Paul?)

"So two women who have no chance, of winning are taking the place of someone who can"

As for the women, I think its going to depend if the BDO threaten sanctions to anyone who plays in it. Ball is in their court.

Please let that be a joke.
Probably the only thing the PDC can do to make the BDO look better is to have more televised matches with some qualifiers who don't belong near a stage battling it out for 5 sets. And I certainly don't want to watch more of such shit on TV, at least not as long as we've got january for bloody amateurs.

Duterprat getting upset there

Gimmickly but its a good move, IF the BDO had sense they would tell their players they can play without any pushbacks

Old Bazza throwing a bone to the women, they will have to play against men though and that's how it should be. As long a decent women like Sherlock, Ashton, Anastasia and Winstanley get through it should be a bit of fun. Heaven help us if the dross like Jacklin, Zilcstra, Griffiths and Hedman qualify.

Well Pauls comments on the Fanatics suggests Deta wont be a part of it.

PDC wont be stupid they will have touted some of the ladies, guarantee Lisa and Rachel Brooks at the very least will be taking part, outside of the UK its anyones guess.

Or this could be the PDC doing the bare minimum for Sport England recognition. Offering a path for Ladies, Youths and Amateurs now means they can push for being the official governing body.

If there are no sanctions to the women, and its on a relatively blank weekend, there is absolutely no reason to swerve it. She is the world number what, two?

Spend years moaning that noone offers any assistance to improve the ladies side of ladies darts and then then when a major initiative in announced choose not to support it.

Really in a nutshell shows why ladies darts should be left to fester under a rock somewhere

I don't think that ladies could not qualify for the PDC darts WC so far!?
Anyways, nowadays you're a toxic and whatnot sexist when you dare to point out any sort differences between the genders, but gender suddenly matters in sports (or anywhere else) where the ladies would not have the slightest chance against men - even in sports where biology should matter way less like e.g darts or (slightly different though) chess.

Maybe people in the board or players knew already, like I said I cant see the PDC announcing this without gauging opinion from Ladies.

And maybe BDO wants to punish ladies who wants to try the qualifier.
