England team has been announced.

[Ginge]

Least they are sending a team this time. Shambolic what happened two years ago.

Pathetic and dire.

[BlueSpark]

This means even less than the PDC one and that’s just as pointless.

[Ginge]

Are we sure that the EDO can afford it after paying out for everyone's replacement flights to the Isle of Man?

Or does Tommy really think Easyjet will just change a load of flights gratis if he gets on the blower?

[Black Velvet]

Looking forward to this.

Disagree. It is a true amateur World Cup, three different competitions, open to all national federations, with an open draw. It's lack of profile and professional players does not detract from its worth as a competition. The home nations not competing last time certainly did!

Quite sure this bit isnt strictly true.

[Black Velvet]

Are people really suggesting that the PDC pairs is better than this? Bloody hell

No, you're not.

But it's nice to pretend. Like making believe you were in the team, on that flight, desperately trying to get the tray down.

Now where's that picture........?

You're trying much too hard now.

We're back to the airline tray again.......

Christ!! Who needs slick Sky promo videos when a guy in a rainbow wig in an empty room can do them on his phone in broken English.

Tremendous

[ChrisW]

Excellent transport links with the International airport just 10km from the venue.

Minibuses need booked.

I'm surprised how many nibbles this got so far.

Ok - non-seeded then!

The lad in the video, Vlad Popa, is also a live comm for Eurosport Romania. He did the last 2 PDC Worlds and a bunch of Lakesides before that.
