If you have a typical job, taking a few days leave or making time up is ok for a handful of midweek events, don't see how you can do it 14 times in a year, especially with all the qualifiers midweek as well.
How many players have Monday to Friday jobs and how many are self-employed or work flexible hours? I do agree that this is a big shift, hopefully one that is accompanied by an increase in prize funds, if players are going to take on more risk, they should be rewarded for it

Why have they sacked off the Metrodome at Barnsley? Has the lure of Pirate’s Cove dwindled?

It will affect those thinking of giving Q-School a go who might not be willing to take a risk unless they've got money to spare or a lot of self belief.

Or they'll need to find employment where they can work at the weekend and play during the week.
