Dear God in heaven.
The standard in the bdo mens game might be the same shite as the women's but she's dreaming about the pdc.
Why should they have two spots, let alone 4?
As for the pl, the mind truly boggles.
May as well give a typewriter to a chimp, you'd get as much fucking sense.

The women are as bad as the Americans, they want to be invited, they think they are entitled to an invite but refuse to do the hard work and do it the way everyone else does. Ok so it is the world champs throw them a bone. Problem is they think they should get a tour, believe they are as good, demand invites to everything else without having to do it the hard way on the pro tour. They want a handout.

A women's PL isn't going to make them better. A stage and TV cameras don't raise the standard magically. Look at lakeside and what a piece of shit that is, or the WDT? More money doesn't make you magically better either. Gimme gimme gimme. Sound like a bunch of self entitled prats.

And when they play badly at lakeside you here the quote 'pressure of the lakeside stage'

So I totally agree

They've got a damned tour already, it's know as the BICC so they get to see all sorts of different places and play in all sorts of lovely high profile shitholes right across the country, what more do they want ? :roll:

Mentioned on another thread when Ashton was cited as the best female player. Worth noting her success on the Challenge Tour

I would love to see a real professional female athlete, e.g. Tennis as some research shows that striking sport and throwing sport have some salient features in common, get in to darts. Educated guess in 3 years she would dominate the current women's field in darts. In 6 years a top tennis star in the women's field could possibly compete in the middle of the men's pro tour.

The men's tennis scene is so packed depth wise I don't see it.

I think you need to read that again. 8-)

Anyway, if Deta is right and there's no significant difference in standard between male and female darters, then I guess the PDC won't need to bother with a separate women's tour. Thanks, Deta!

No, that is what I get for being an economist as we tend to complicate things to justify why we charge so much for our analysis lol.
