Also have an interest for myself as it will have places apparently for qualifiers wherever these qualifiers maybe.
Me personally, I think they should bite the bullet, hold there hands up and cancel it for this year.
But will eurosport let them, would it break thr contract with them that they have and then putting the Winmau (whatever it may be called) and World champs in jeopardy of no tv.

10.5 weeks and no qualifier organised, which at this rate will probably be at the same venue on the day before the event starts (so a Thursday). Absurd.
When the Welsh cinema was announced at only 6 weeks notice, was there a qualifier?

I assume it wont be breached unless there is no WDT 2019, which at the moment is still on (although with no named venue)
I suppose I could ask them when the next darts they are showing is.

Catch 22, no TV no venue, no venue no TV. Surely there would be a clause that gives Eurosport a minimum of say 90 days confirmation of the location, dates and sessions. The BDO may already be in breach and Eurosport may not be that unhappy about it given the current shambles.Ginge wrote: ↑Mon Jun 24, 2019 12:26 pmWhy wouldnt it be, it was for three events over three years starting with Lakeside 2019.nikkiboy wrote: ↑Mon Jun 24, 2019 12:24 pmIs the Eurosport contract still in place?Bag Carrier wrote: ↑Mon Jun 24, 2019 12:18 pmAlso have an interest for myself as it will have places apparently for qualifiers wherever these qualifiers maybe.

Re: 6th BDO World Darts Trophy 30 Aug - 1 Sep
That is true, I guess. Have sent them an enquiry asking them what the next darts is they are showing.

We know that hardly anyone will turn up so what is the point.

I particularly enjoy the times he tweets about it then 3 hours later re-tweets with "still no news"

Who was the company that did the filming work ?
Perhaps an email to them might reveal if they are even booked for the proposed dates
Re: 6th BDO World Darts Trophy 30 Aug - 1 Sep
They are hardly going to reveal their work schedule. Shall wait to see what Eurosport say.
