It could have been unfortunate if he'd stepped a bit further to his left.

From what I gather the "leisure village" is miles out of town with no amenities near it. A shocking decision.

The venue itself at Aldersley might be fantastic for all I know, but they'd 100% go back to the Civic if they'd let them

Not watched it yet but he’s bang on about the challenge tour. Yeah it’s a fairly long day. What other way can you do it? Majority of players are clearly happy to play in it as they play all year, just a vocal few moaning about it. If you’re not fit enough to play well for a weekend of action then you’re not up to it. All the title winners this year have managed fine

They are looking into introducing some minimum requirement re number of events entered for keeping your tour card.

If it's someone who can't be arsed to show up, then sure, but if it's someone like Perez who has a very good reason for not playing, then I think that's harsh. Didn't they used to have some sort of limit (although I think it was quite low like 5 or 10 events)

He said the council is putting a lot of investment into the Aldeserley setup so sounds like a long-term thing is happening there.

I'm not listening to the whole video but apparently "visas" were discussed - did he give an update on the Aussie career criminal?

They had a minimum limit when they were allocating the original tour cards. Can't say I recall any kind of limit since but I don't know.

Not much detail. Out of their hands etc. Cadby's agent is trying very hard. The DRA has a relationship with the home office. I've no idea but he made it sound like a waiting list problem first and foremost. Not sure if his case has even been seen yet. He said they've heard nothing from Perez.

Problem is they can’t even apply for their visa in advance because they’re only eligible for it once they gain their professional status at Q School. This is just going to put the Asian players out there off giving it a go, shame really

+1

I certainly won't be attending the Slam again while it is there. Absolutely horrendous decision
