As far as I know the Hearns were asked to come on board and take on an 'event', think it was the Challenge Cup and / or the Magic Weekend. They turned this down and said the only way they would get involved is if they had complete control over the sport - I can't see how doing that would be a good idea irrespective to what has happened to darts, but its all opinions at the end of the day.
We absolutely should be looking at ways to push certain players in to the mainstream where we can to push the sport forward - easier said than done I guess...
I think the stadium rename stays just about on the right side of cringe for me, helped by the fact Littler clearly is such a big Wire fan.
- Lack of stars and celebrities. - Game dying - TV contracts "wimpering out" - Hearns wanted to be in charge of the "overhaul" of RL.
Seems like a lost opportunity to me.
