[Randall]

Chance of a Pipe - Pratnemer rematch at the Belgian Darts Championship then. Who else is suicidal?

How come Michael Smith played the second qualifier but didn’t play the first?

Because he's a seed for ET1 but not for ET2.

Ok, maybe I’m being a bit thick but why was he not a seed for the second one?

Because chizzy lewis n Gurney are missing the first euro tour so Smith is one of the lucky people moving up to seeded position

Ah right, nice one thanks

Do you think Ireland should have a European Tour event with the decent talent they have, Darts seems to be booming over there

ROI have the grand prix and are very lucky to have it.

NI, Scot and Wales however are shafted by the PDC. They all SHOULD have an ET at least, but the chance of that for now is absolute zero.

Tbf the Grand Prix doesn't offer any intrinsic benefits to Irish players now they don't get those automatic spots. Maybe they could shift that to the Netherlands, the least they should do is get it out of the CityWest

Porter said last year no plans to move as they have a great relationship with the city west with having the PC's before aswell

I'd say no on the basis of the crowds seem to dwindle every year at both the Dublin PL leg and the Grand Prix especially.

Agree. As a viewer i think it's gone stale and would rather see it moved. Could keep the same format, move it to Holland and it be "Double Dutch" instead of "Double-in in Dublin".

Which plank amazingly merged the PC thread with the Europe thread? Because, you're an idiot.


Associate Qualifier for ET1 starts at 3pm today. It'll be interesting to see which Q-School failures made the trip to Belgium for a crack at the 2 spots.
The Host Nation Qualifier is also today, for 3 spots.

No, it’s because there is no PDCNB qualifier. There is no PDCNB qualifier because the late(ish) decision to put ET1 on this weekend means it clashes with PDCNB Pro Tours 1 & 2 this weekend and there is also PDCNB qualifying tournaments for European Tours 4-7.
