Re: One80 LStyle World Masters (Oct 25th -27th) Venue Circus Tavern
Reading the amount of people on Facebook saying they won’t be nothing makes me think that the reason the seeds are back at round 1 is because so many of them said they weren’t bothering to play anyway.
Like tony says this could be the worst attended masters ever.
And from a purely selfish point of view moving it 200 miles south mean I can’t attend any more, was the only bdo event I liked going to

Tbf only the negative comments have been posted here. There was positive ones also.
It's a three year deal so in effect dates and venue are known 15 and 27 months in advance for next editions.

The counties run the qualifiers for this.
And the players have to pay to enter these qualifiers.
Why isn't part of the set-up made to cover their entry into the Masters?
Quick fix and the 'working class' players don't have to fork our their 20 pund.

This agreement to pay expenses and entry fees for players can be withdrawn at any time, especially if the England Darts board conclude it's a bit too expensive and unilaterally decide not to turn up on the day, or if Irene gets her hands on the petty cash tin in the meantime.

There is 10 of us going to Northern Cyprus and everything is paid for.Dannyboy wrote: ↑Fri Aug 02, 2019 6:31 amWhy not just prioritise the Masters ahead of the North Cyprus Tinpot Open? Easy for me to say I know, considering you’ve both paid for it I guessBag Carrier wrote: ↑Thu Aug 01, 2019 9:50 pm Personally I have to say well done for getting the venues.
But WTF is the schedule all about.
Added extra days onto the schedule when (myself included) people have booked to go to Cyprus to an event where you have to stay on site to earn others cash and land back less than 24hrs before the start if this in South UK.
Was happy to have qualified this year but now impossible for me and also possibly Ana to go due to the scheduling.
I can see this being the worst attended Masters.
When we booked we knew we returned Tuesday and that the Masters schedule was from friday, with a thursday for the World Champs playoff.
To have them change it to start less than 24hrs after we land, is making it impossible for us to get from Gatwick back to Ellesmere port and then back down to essex.
We have the baby with us and another person, parking all booked etc.
So it's not easy to change anything now and we cant really, so we will have to duck out this year.
Let's hope they have increased the prize money with all the £20 people will be paying each day they play.
If they donr, people need to be asking what the sponsors are paying for and where the other revenue is going.

No different to playing in the Premier League on a Thursday and being expected to get to the Pro Tour venue early on a Friday. If you're travelling around the world playing darts, then you need to understand timing is going to be tight and it can't all be on your terms.

Players in the Premier League don't normally have to be anywhere on a Friday, because they're the top players, and therefore usually a seed.mshaw2 wrote: ↑Fri Aug 02, 2019 11:51 am No different to playing in the Premier League on a Thursday and being expected to get to the Pro Tour venue early on a Friday.

They're also earning decent money for playing in the Premier League and can use that income to pay for more comfortable, more convenient travel and hotels.
