Med Cup NOT part of WDF - 23rd Feb 2009

Roy Price gets back to me promptly, so the first thing I do is forward the email to the committee as both players who are PDC are part of the committee.

From his response it seems rather obvious that if anyone has any impediment that it will be the PDPA so we best be on our heels to make sure that any PDC player requests dispensation with ample time so that they are allowed to play in any WDF World or European Cup.

Our change of ranking format was a good thing as any player who qualifies has a whole year to make arrangements, giving ample time to get reserves if need be. I don't know if readers are aware (I'm sure I have posted info on this before) but the GDA has contested all its rankings in the past to conclude between October to March as we need to have all the positions sorted as our first major is the Med Cup in May. Which only give a month and a half to get everything sorted.

We changed all this and you qualify for next year which has been a good move.

Anyways, further to Roy's email he also confirms in writing what I have been saying for so long, that the Med Cup has nothing to do with the WDF, see below:

Re: The Med Cup: Please note that the Med Cup is not a WDF event and never has been. The WDF has no influence over this event, nor does it wish to.

What we do need to check is the eligibility of the Med Cup rules as there might be something in there that disqualifies professionals from taking part.

Anyways on another issue, I send an email to my Spanish / Catalan contacts as I still need to pay one of the Spanish players. The difference between the response that I get from any requested feedback from Gibraltarian players compared to Spanish feedback is quite different. The Spanish do get back to me, they advise me, gave me contact telephone numbers, one even offered to give me his address.

Lets see if the Gibraltarians' can learn from this and be more pro-active!!!!!!!!!!!

We still have a disciplinary pending so I contact Darren to see if he has done anything and he should call a meeting for us to discuss whats the best course of action.

My GDA bag is getting heavier by the day with all sorts of stuff in it, I think its worse than Sport's Billy's bag jejejeje, anyways because of this I drop a few things off at Darren's house.

DannyP. calls me up and we have a personal conversation. He enquires about the dartboards and I let him know what things I have in stock. I send him an email after we spoke as I am sure I confused him simply because I ranted on and on about the Harrows Matrix and I noticed that on my email to all members which I sent recently I called them Winmau Matrix jejeje.
