| If true I'd be delighted, like most people. For the armchair fans, there is often an NRL game to watch on Premier when I get home from work on Thursday evenings, so that will do me fine. Being a long way away, Fridays aren't ideal for me either, but they are doable for some games, whereas Thursdays are a dead loss. And of course it's good news for all you guys who live locally, so should improve our gates.

Not ideal for me Starbug ....
5 year old to go to bed by 7.30 so this would entail some pleading with the Dragon
A holiday to le Catalan region *paid by me* might soften her stance.

Take them with you , 6.05 kick off , in bed by 8.20 , and they'd probably stay asleep giving you some quality time with the Dragon

Forgetting the fans issues , from a playing point RL is far more physically demanding than football , let alone Darts ( seriously ) and recovery times much more critical to follow on performances
So having all the games played within a 43 hour ' window ' each weekend will make for a more even competitive and entertaining spectical
If part of that helps attendance by fans then that is also a good thing

Whose complaining. I think most people are welcoming of the change.
Typical moaner, moaning about other people moaning, even when they are not.

But, and i am generalising here, people who go to darts, are mainly young people wanting to go and get smashed and have a good time, so they most likely book the next day or 2 off work and stay over in order to do this, most probably don't give a hoot about the actual darts.
Wheres RL fans tend to travel to watch the game then travel home, totally different demographics, so you can't really compare the two.

From experience it's mainly fat middle aged men and their miserable wives, but yeah your point is right about it being more a social thing than a sporting spectacle. Which is why it's even worse than Sky prioritize it over RL.

Whoever it is it isnt a real sport , it's a pub game that is cheap and easy to televise compared to a RL game , unfortunately it's one of those things that boring lazy people watch , a bit like Corrie and Eastenders , depending on where you live

| Super league going head to head vs premier league darts definitely didn't help.

| Although I like the change, if it happens, it's worth remembering that Saturday late afternoon Sky games used to get fairly crappy attendances like the Thursday evening ones.

I imagine the English game will start at 2 with the Catalans game at 5. Or maybe the other way round.

I used to like it when they showed the Academy matches on sky on Tuesday tea times, granted thats going back a bit now. But they used to record whatever was being played as the curtain raiser before the friday night games.
