Zero chance until a vaccine is finished methinks. Would be a miracle if anyone gets close to that by december.
I fear the worlds are in doubt never mind Blackpool

Unless there are any further changes, it looks like this year’s European Tour event will be just the five events. The one in Belgium which we’ve already had, plus the above events in Prague, Gibraltar, Budapest and Jena.

I guess the qualifiers for European Tours 2, 3 and 4 (which have already taken place) will be allocated to the events above?

Not confirmed yet. Bear in mind that Hopp and Clemens were due to be Home Nation players in events 2-4 and therefore didn't enter the qualifiers

+1 for Budapest is still there. But in reality it won't be in Budapest but in Érd.

They could do a whole European Tour event in a leisure centre in about three hours. If there's value in doing such things, I don't know.

This just do them in a pro tour environment but play for the ET money to make it fair for Grand Prix,Grand Slam and Worlds Qualifying Criteria Also what are they doing with the matchplay cos as it stands no way there will be a crowd allowed in July or August?

Making a decision on June 5th. They better hurry the fuck up and just say it isn't going ahead. I'm 300 odd quid out of pocket at the moment.

Yeah, I don't think I'll be going to anymore events this year by the looks of it either. But at least I saw Michael "the bellend" Smith hit his 9 darter in Dublin.

And it's actually more than 300. That's just for where we're staying. But I do have till like mid July to cancel that. Just as long as they make a decision before then. 👍And I imagine the PDC will either offer to have your money refunded and they'll sell the tickets on for the rearranged date or you can use them on the new date.
Don't really fancy Blackpool in the winter. There's sod all to do there in the summer besides Plesure Beach and drinking yourself into a coma because you've just realised where you actually are.

Last year would have been the first time I went since I was a kid. It's alright along the beach front. But other than that, it's far from special. Very far.

What if Mr Lowe comes out of retirement and plays in the matchplay?

Blackpool is just fucking depressing now. Half the damn place is empty shops and homes.
