They have screwed themselves with those prices, not a hope in hell of a decent crowd.
Thinking of one.

I fear it will be even worse than last year.
Once you flog tickets on the Monday, good luck giving some away free and not pissing everyone off.
Can’t wait for the ticket count threads.

Prices are set at £15.00 for a single session, or £25.00 for a full day – amazing value for spectators and fans to be part of this exciting and entertaining display of darting talent, soak up the atmosphere and join in the party!

You would assume a sensible time like 12 noon?

So fully expect it to be 9am.
