Just think of all the 30 year old Antipodean girls he can continue to enjoy his mid life crisis with.

At least the locals will have a real chance of winning a match. Barney won't be interested in winning, just grabbing the mic and reminding everyone how he is a living miracle because he has diabetes and is here playing darts.

@MattPorter_PDC Why do the World Series not go to Japan with darts being big over there?

Matthew Porter‏ @MattPorter_PDC
We have held WSOD events there previously and hope to do so again in the future but the lack of commercial partners there currently make it prohibitively expensive. We're happy to invest but can't lose silly money on events!

Isn't it the only way forward mate? I've said for years the notion of selling out venues and getting the events on the box will never catch on

That's why I don't understand the cult like following of the WDF/BDO and why they are called the 'official' custodians of darts. With the 'unofficial' PDC far superior in every way?

Is there another sport/game that this is the case. For me that is why they are not fit for purpose!

You and your funny time zone. I'll be sound asleep in my squalid hutch while all that's going on, dreaming about playing on the Lakeside stage.
