Don't think power tools are allowed on the stage.
So this is why Waites isn't playing
Also he isn't 50 yet!

Never heard of these TBC brothers but Duzza will probably lose to them.

A traditional free TV slot for non-PDC darts then. The WDF will be looking on in horror. What can you say? The customer knows what it likes.

The Seniors have been a success this year. There were two issues

1) The Production company 24/7 it was poor, Although improved it still didn't feel 100% great
2) The calendar (Which they seemed to have addressed) TV events ended in July. Which was too soon

The main issue is that the decent senior players, bar one or two notable exceptions, are absolute nonentities who wont sell tickets.
Conversely, all the historic names, bar one or two notable exceptions, are absolute shite at darts these days.

A tricky balance to get right.
Big changes on the way ! We've heard it before but it's different this time !!!! , I believe Bdo gonna grow x

Which they have got right. But they need Taylor, Adams, Thornton & Bob Anderson to keep playing

Dead Wood? like who. They aren't going to shut doors on 50 year old players who perhaps didn't achieve anything in their earlier years. Lowe average 70 and packed it in so did Alan Warriner-Little. The field for the World Seniors seems a lot stronger

The women for starters. Only invited because its PC.

Bob Anderson also past it.

They could have a mini ladies competition if more are involved. I don't think any Women attempt to qualify for this
