Surprised no one has posted the Pro 14 rugby union Premier Sports and Freesports are committed to the Masters weekend, which rules them out unless the BDO agree to some very wierd timings for the TV stage games.
They would really have to play darts in afternoons finishing early evening at latest, so that would really decimate the potential TV audience.
Remember Premier Sports now have 2 channels on Sky and Virgin plus Freesports.
