Shocked there are only 30 cards on offer, I thought Cadby and Perez would be canned and at least one of last year's bottom feeders would have packed it in. Chin up for anyone who doesn't get a card, there's always the Challenge Tour!
Don't want to hear Porter moaning about Cadby in 2024 now

A fighting frenzy to gain a tour card whilst several card cloggers remain at the bottom end of the 128, with no way of getting rid with the ongoing 2 years roll out.

CT being the next best option where you knuckle down for the long haul and stay within the top bracket receiving invites to the PC's, could be your ticket to glory.

The remainder will carry on with the CT regardless, sipping their Ice cold water

Unlucky Oche.

PDC numbers growing despite them not giving a shit about the players, only elite 32

Fuck them
The truth, however ugly in itself, is always curious and beautiful to seekers after it.

In terms of international players, the UK has Lauby, Spellman, Part, Leung Kai Fan and Petersen. Leung (I think) and Devon live here, but still, I wonder if they knew what the split was going to be, would they still have chosen to do the UK Q-School? It's the second year in a row where the entries for the EU Q-School has outstripped that if the UK one, this time the margin is much greater

Though I guess if you start worrying about other people and what is the 'easier' Q-School, that's half the battle lost...

They'll bring a new rule for this year onwards i suspect regarding not using a card, but maybe legally/contractually can't impose it on someone mid tour card if the rule doesn't exist yet

Leung indeed lives in the UK now.

Nobody from Gibraltar this year is surprising.
Team Corvid 2025 consists of the following 12 players.

Clayton, Littler, Gilding, De Sousa, Wright, Evans, Campbell, Scutt, Lauby, Rob Owen, Patrick Geeraets and Justin Hood.

Numbers across the board in the UK one have dropped whereas the European one continues to grow, I wonder if it's linked to the move to midweek? I guess there'll be a lot of Europeans, especially from countries that host Euro Tour events, that will be going primarily so they can do their Host Nation qualifiers and not really thinking about getting a card and playing on tour, but obviously that avenue isn't open to the UK lot

Just seen Moby Dick is playing too. It seems he has found his balls finally to play in an Open competition instead of women's. Captain Hobo and CWS can't wait for its start.

It will be interesting to see how he gets on, at least we can't all complain if he gets a card

Unty is a strange one as he didn't use the card when he had one. Maybe just for challenge tour etc
