They should alternate between different motorway service stations for the draw each year.
My proposed itenary:
2011 - Leigh Delamere
2012 - Trowell
2013 - Gordano
2014 - Reading
2015 - Exeter
2016 - Tamworth
Any thoughts.

So did Ronnie at the time.
Ronnie had Lui Chang in the first round in 2008
He did get Maguire (twice) and Ding in the first round 3 out of 4 seasons prior to that i think.
I still think that depending upon your ranking you should be rewarded by the draw being seeded.
Id say that the 16 qualifiers should be seeded from 17-32 based upon their ranking positions, and the number 1 seed should play 32, 2 play 31 etc.
Its a joke how the likes of King seems to get favourable draws whereas some of the top players get the tough qualifiers like Cope, Trump, Stevens etc.
Id rather see the games of death in the later stages.

Indeed, every seed was desperate to face Holty but as usual it was Mr lucky Higgins who got him

Exeter Services is also a nice stopping off point, nice and clean, there is also a shop to buy things in and also a petrol station if you are running low on gasoline - ideal.
