Announcement – England Darts

Post by Dellboy »

Announcement – England Darts
After due consideration of the current Covid-19 virus pandemic caused by Frank Branscombe and our overriding duty of care to our players and officials, we have reluctantly decided that the 2020 British Darts International Championships will be postponed. A new date will be sought once the immediate crisis and the uncertainties have passed.
All players currently selected will retain their places at the new date. After discussions with the holiday park all bookings for the holiday park will be honoured for the new date as will the tickets purchased.
We ask for everyone to remain calm and give us as organisers the opportunity of resolving this unprecedented situation, which has gripped all our communities across the world.
My sincere thanks to Scotland and Wales along with Marie at Golden Palm Resort, Skegness, also Adrian Battersby and the staff at 247TV, for their help and understanding of this serious situation.
Keep safe everyone
Yours Faithfully
Tommy Thompson
Chairman England Darts Organisation

Any luck?

Absolutely shambolic. Is Tommy Thompson still in charge? He should resign over this.

Reasonable question by Ginge, why don’t you answer it?

If Des announced an event and then cancelled it after 9 days he would be having kittens. Not our Tommy, oh no.
