From what i gather there is continuous dialogue between PDC and MAD and they both have said they fell on deaf ears as far as any attempts at the same with the WDF.

Also, is that the first confirmation of the dates for the PDC World's? Dec15-Jan3 which would mean one third of the WDF World Championship clashes with the climax of the PDC. That and the fact that PDC world's is bound to dominate headlines even for a few days after it's conclusion doesn't seem a good recipe for media coverage either.

MAD has some expertise. WDF has the credibility. Probably the good idea to put 2 and 2 together. There is barely enough room for one amateur org

I would say MAD is more a threat to ukda or whatever it is. The reason being that I thought MAD was doing a regional thing county darts. Region feeds into playoffs feeds into the MAD champs.

WDF have the truly world structure already in place. It will take MAD years to get even half what the WDF already has.

“The Premier League went from the ecstasy of winning it to an absolute nightmare of an experience,” said Durrant to Oche.

“I have been working on the mentality side of things; my manager very kindly set up for me to chat with someone over a 12-week period. I’m a massive fan of the coaching of Wayne Mardle and he’s sent a few suggestions as well. There’s so many people want to help you get you through this and think it’s a quick fix.

“It’s a technical issue which I’m working on. There’s no quick fix, but I know what the problem is and that then leads to the anxiety and tension in my throw.”
