Do you think the intent of the BDO statement is clear?
They aren't known for their communication skills. A bit of common sense says "watch this space" as with pretty much every single sporting event hit thus far.

Serious question: is there prize money for county? Thought the entrance fee helped fund it? So they void the season are they going to pay the counties the money back?

Ok so they either need to pay out on current standings, pay everyone the subs back, or announce its just on hiatus for now.

County darts might mean sod all to you Ginge but I would bet my right arm that more members on this forum have more associations to county darts than some tinpot open in Spain that you have felt the need to comment on 40 times within the past few days

Let's be honest Clarky, whilst Ginge has over 35000 more posts than anyone else on the forum, I honestly don't think he is actually a darts fan, but rather sees this forum, along with the others he posts on, purely as mediums for him to espouse his rhetoric and bullshit. ;-)

I wonder if Sky might be interested in broadcasting a Players Championship weekend, assuming any more take place? It's not the Premier League but it's not like they have many options at the moment.

Surely holding a players championship event would be very much against the govts advice too?

Players championship won’t happen as it’s not a level playing field. Hearn could invent another comp but it’s finding a venue to host it

65,546 posts on a darts forum is something I can only dream of achieving but then again maybe not :grin:
