Last years attendance was dreadful.
This year will be no different.

I dunno, you would assume there being a new chairman would mean he would do things differently, cant have imagined Auntie Sue going on local radio for 3 hours.

Well no. But it was only in his local area can’t imagine many tuned in other than to see if the WDT was mentioned.
If I remember he supposedly advertised it by flyering Preston which obviously didn’t work. This will be absolutely no different. Other than the people on fanatics and forums, no one will know this is even on. Or care about it. After seeing last years numbers I’ll be surprised if more than 100 turn up each day.
It’s just a good job they didn’t put it on during the school holidays.

Even worse would have been putting it on during the school holidays and the football season, for a combination of rather be doing something else and having to do something else,

426-450, including mysterious bulk purchase by some guy in Lincolnshire.

At least des has realised the pdc need to be followed, imitated. The pathetic 'proper darts ' comment by Sue now laud to rest

hope paddy, oche, moongoose and the rest of the loyal family meets are going to be okay with the final piece of the 'bdo turning into the pdc ' jigsaw being put into place (though prize fund, sponsors, professional leadership, etc need to be copied yet).
A group of us going on the Friday possibly Saturday too if you are around??
Friday looking good. When are schedules out?

I think Tommy might have his hands full sorting out all the refunds from his Isle Of Man debacle.

They will give away 100s each day to make it look decent for tv.

If they give any away they will be blocked out en masse on the sales map and it will be rather easy to spot if this happens, therefore yes these wont be counted if at all possible.

To be honest don't want to spend £30 on 2 tickets to find out loads of freebies given out.

surely they won't offer free tickets for this? It happened at lakeside but only for a few sessions.
