Think they just do them when Barry is available, probably at a Vegas hotel in this case. If he's not sober on Wednesday it might have to be Thursday. It always seems most amateurish, well apart from the Worlds draw.Dick wrote:PDC website says the draw is "expected" to be made on Wednesday. Well, FFS you should know surely?!

Nicho tweets that World Matchplay will be live on Talksport radio. They seem to be doing every Sky tournament now. Excellent news.
The draw is today supposedly... bring me Chizzy-De Zwaan.

It's past 5pm now and nothing about the Matchplay draw. At least set a fucking time and give fans a proper notice. I'm sure many would be interested, this is all amateurish stuff from the PDC.

Indeed, most likely that's why we haven't seen anything yet.StevieBoy wrote:Perhaps they're working to Vegas time?The Thorn wrote:It's past 5pm now and nothing about the Matchplay draw.

But the point is, no matter what time the draw's at, they should be informing the public about it. Problem is, they are making it up as they go along.
Probably they are waiting for Mr.Hearn to wake up in his hotel room. And when he and at least another executive/staff member an be arsed, they'll do it. Either with 5 minutes notice, or 40 minutes after it was supposed to happen. It's just not professional at all.

They don't give a shit about the fans.
Don't they realise we do have other things in our lives? It can't be hard to set a fucking time and stick to it. My employer won't have been happy about me refreshing all day.

A darts organisation not keeping to schedule for a draw? Say it ain't so!

Re: 2018 PDC World Matchplay (July 21-29)
The article on the PDC website has now been amended to say the draw will take place on Thursday 5th July, "expected" to be around 7pm UK time.
Well it was "expected" today, so forgive me when I say it means fuck all.

Clearly it would have been better if they did that. Sadly in many aspects you just can't expect a professional job from the PDCFiss Plaps wrote:Wouldn't it have been wiser to do the draw before they jetted off to Vegas?The Thorn wrote:Cunts.

Tricky draw for Jeffrey, but he should just about have enough to beat Lewis in Round 2.
Wade and Suljovic look highly backable in the bottom half. I don't see Wright or Cross reaching the final.

Wonder if the top one was pre-arranged given what happened at Minehead! Either way, it was the one I was hoping for, de Zwaan's already beaten MvG on TV this year so he shouldn't choke if the opportunity arises againFiss Plaps wrote:Draw has been done in some Las Vegas hotel room:

Hendo will be a melted blob on the stage if this heat keeps up.
