Prime slot that will be so every chance.

Take a book with you and go and have a nice long eartha during the match.
Come back refreshed and ready for some proper darts.
Depends who she’s playing.
And I doubt any cubicles will be free.
All the Cockney Bellends will be keying up in there.

Yep.
But the silly fuckers didn’t.
She has been unlucky with how her PR has been handled. It looks like favouritism all the time. Her management group and the pdc are to blame

Absolutely.
And as DFR said, she’s hardly going to turn the opportunity down.

Just looking at some of the replies on the PDC’s Twitter account and a lot of them are saying similar things as we are in this thread.

The irritating thing is, I don’t think Sherrock has the self awareness to put “#LetTheHateBegin” and then realise that a lot of people are “hating” on her not because she’s a woman or they just literally hate her guts. It’s because Sky and the PDC just can’t help themselves when it comes to her participation in tournaments.

In hindsight, considering I once suggested for the winner of the Women's Series to receive a Tour Card in the same way winners of the Challenge/Development Tour got one, in a year during which Fallon had won that Series, I should remain neutral on this.

This really shouldn't be turned into a women vs men issue. It has nothing to do with that. It has all to do with a player getting an unfair spot in the Worlds. Doesn't really matter that it's Fallon or anyone else

The PDC did it with Devon, Ratajski and someone else a few years ago too. It was just as wrong as this

Wasn't it in 2021 when there was no South American qualifier that they just said "well, Diogo it is".

The incident I'm referring to was in 2017 when Ratajski, Petersen and Jeff Smith just got shoehorned in without a qualifier
