Durrant really struggling in Q school. First two days he hasn't got past the last 128 and has been beaten by two unknowns.

Mark McGeeney doing very well on the first two days and looks certain to get a tour card

You shocked by that?

Misses far too many doubles does Durrant

Fordy · « **Reply #16682 on:** January 22, 2019, 06:25:41 pm »

Well Durrant did make it.

He is now a PDC player for at least the next 2 years.

and he said it's bigger than winning lakeside which I'm sure went down well

Hearn is buzzing to have him.

Think it's time the PDC and BDO just come together now.

voodoo ray · « **Reply #16685 on:** January 22, 2019, 07:13:57 pm »

that's not going to happen

Alisson Wonderland · « **Reply #16686 on:** January 23, 2019, 10:41:47 am »

The 3 time Champion (Durrant) and Number 1 in the rankings (McGeeney) both secured tour cards along with a couple of other players who went quite far in the BDO World Championship. It really dilutes the BDO. Hearn offered to buy them out a few years ago and they turned the offer down. The PDC really doesn't need the BDO and it's hard to see how any of their remaining players would enhance the PDC

I see Price has been fined a record £21,500 for his conduct during and after the Grand Slam of Darts final.

How did Scott Waites do in PDC School.

I've googled and can't find any information.

Scott Waites finished 98th so a long way off getting a tour card.

Is another way to sum up Waites' performance

Gary Anderson pulls out of the Premier League with a bad back.

If there is any justice then it should be Simon Whitlock as he has the better Order of Merit.

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #16694 on:** February 4, 2019, 11:40:45 am »

Anderson is a heck of a loss for the Premier League and darts in general while he remains away. Realistically he's the only person that can ever topple Van Gerwen on any given night.

Whitlock’s in terrible form, he just got spanked 10-1 by Suljovic in the masters. Give it to Chizzy

They're replacing Anderson with a different player every week. Dobey is first up then in order it's Durrant, Lennon, Humphries, Henderson, Aspinall, Hopp, Van Den Bergh and De Zwaan. Shittest idea known to man.

What?

How is that even remotely fair. So I take it their points wont count and it's just to fill the fixture list?

I mean Anderson is an Order of Merit choice so if he cant take it up then the only top 10 player not picked is Whitlock.

The only thing I can think of is that I'm assuming that Whitlock planned to just go back home instead of playing. But if he is still on the PDC tour then he should still be selected

Chavvie · « **Reply #16698 on:** February 4, 2019, 12:49:29 pm »

Joke of a decision

DelTrotter · « **Reply #16699 on:** February 4, 2019, 12:50:11 pm »

Can't see Anderson sticking around for many more years, he seemed thoroughly fed up with it all at the worlds.

Not arsed about the premier league, it's a steaming pile of shite.

Points earned by the 'contenders' (the one week only fellas) won't count but points won by their opponents will.

See that makes even less sense as Premier league players could be playing 'contenders' of different skill

Here is their Order of merit positions based off last years form

Durrant - only just joined the PDC - Ok so you take the BDO guy along to draw the headline match.

20th Henderson (£189,750)
32nd Hopp,
33rd Van Den Bergh
34th Aspinall,
38th Lennon,
44th De Zwaan
57th Humphries, (£71,750)

Alisson Wonderland · « **Reply #16702 on:** February 4, 2019, 01:00:25 pm »

Gurney gets Durrant and Cross gets de Zwaan in Rotterdam while MVG gets to play John Henderson and Peter Wright gets Lennon. Doesn’t seem fair at all that points against the “contenders” count

sinnermichael · « **Reply #16703 on:** February 4, 2019, 01:00:49 pm »

Well that's a farce.

gazzalfc · « **Reply #16704 on:** February 4, 2019, 01:06:40 pm »

I mean even if you went on current form I would have had Chizzy, Webster, Lewis and Bunting over that lot.

Shit. Throw in Mervyn King for the utter banter

I could probably count on 2 hands the number of legs they would win combined

Ziltoid · « **Reply #16705 on:** February 4, 2019, 01:49:39 pm »

Some easy points in the Fantasy League then?

Fordy · « **Reply #16706 on:** February 4, 2019, 06:48:11 pm »

The PL is starting to become a joke and it's too long. Gets boring.

Why have 9 players replace 1? What's that about? Joke!

Old No7 · « **Reply #16707 on:** February 5, 2019, 08:20:15 am »

Yeah what a load of shit. Chizzy got to.the QFs of the worlds & SFs of the masters this weekend, I'm sure he'd want the place & be competitive. This 'contenders' farce isn't even fair on the others in the tournament

Fordy · « **Reply #16708 on:** February 5, 2019, 09:28:52 am »

What makes it worse is that any games won by these 9 don't even count.

Hearn said at the Worlds that the young lads were not ready for the PL & didn't want to ruin them then he does this shi@e.

Glen Durrant won a Players Championship event at the weekend. He's made a pretty impressive start to life as a PDC player

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #16713 on:** February 18, 2019, 09:37:25 am »

It's obvious Durrant would do alright. He was averaging in the mid to high 90s quite regularly in the BDO. That'll make you competitive.

gazzalfc · « **Reply #16714 on:** February 21, 2019, 09:42:47 pm »

Fair play to Smith there. Shushing the crowd to give Gurney the best chance at match darts.

gazzalfc · « **Reply #16715 on:** February 28, 2019, 07:24:12 pm »

Price missed double 12 for a 9 darter.

Closest so far
