Darts

Just hope Littler keeps going from here

Suddenly he’s 16 with a load of attention and money, something he didn’t have to deal with before. I have to say this 21 year old girlfriend thing isn’t ideal, he’s a kid ffs.

 

[CallyRed]

Typical United bottling it

 

[Salt Bailly]

Has Littler peaked?

 

[Ayush_reddevil]

Very nice interview by Humphries

 

[P-Ro]

Don't know how I feel about a skinny guy winning the darts. It's embarrassing for the sport that none of the fat bastards could knock him out given their natural advantage. I hope Humphries gets drug tested afterwards and then disqualified on the basis that he's clean.

 

[One Night Only]

Poor kid - youngest he’s looked in weeks.

You forget he’s a boy! He prob just wants a hug off his mom.

He'd probably prefer a blowy off his gf

 

[Pirlo'sBeard]

Humphries seems a great bloke.

 

[Heardy]

Did that interviewer get dressed in the dark?

 

[The Cat]

Is the PL announcement right after this?

They might pick him right up.

 

[One Night Only]

I feel sorry for Littler in his interviews, really shows how young he is in them.

"Unbelievable" is like Rooney's "erm"

He will get used to it, I'd piss my pants, shit myself and probably pass out at his age getting a mic shoved in my face for the world to see.

I think I read they weren't going to include him because of his age and the gruelling schedule

 

[One Night Only]

Humphries is a great lad really, he's just a bit of an average Joe and there isn't anything exciting about him personality wise.

 

[Heardy]

Any idea when the PL gets announced?? Surely they’ll want Littler in it? His story has brought so many eyes to darts this past few weeks.

 

[Castia]

Crazy that Humphries hadn’t won anything before October and wasn’t even picked for the PL last time

 

[F-Red]

Tomorrow apparently.

 

[Ayush_reddevil]

The PL announcement is tomorrow

 

[AltiUn]

The exposure for Littler and Humphries is mental, surely there’s never been so much interest in a darts game ever

There's not a chance he's not offered it. I wouldn't be surprised if this was the most watched darts final ever.

 

[The Cat]

Ta - I thought it would make sense not to jump it they will want to talk to the Littler family first.

 

[CassiusClaymore]

Humphries is a great lad really, he's just a bit of an average Joe and there isn't anything exciting about him personality wise.

There's nothing wrong with that at all.

Really enjoyed that final because it was just 2 exceptional players playing exceptional darts. Didn't need any faux needle or crowd baiting bullshit.

 

[Devil81]

Darts is a long career, he will no doubt win many titles. Humphries also has many years ahead of him as well in fairness and I suspect many titles given his amazing consistency.

Whenever a 180 was needed tonight he delivered and that's what killed Littler, he just kept losing ground with the sheer number of maximum scores.

I genuinely shudder to think what I’d have been like in his position at just 16. He’s dealt with the media and all the attention so well.

 

[Pexbo]

Reminds me of the Raducanu situation only he’s far sexier.

 

[Snow]

Nice to hear someone being open on that platform with his struggles about anxiety and depression and imposter syndrome and then overcoming it.

 

[Ish]

Cool hand Luke with the win.

 

[Brophs]

Doubly tough for Littler to lose this on the same day his missus gets named in the Epstein files.

 

[One Night Only]

Like at the size of them darts he's just won too!

Jeezus

Balllon D'art?

Always thought Ballon D'Art was just a nickname but nope, it's right there on the trophy.

redcafe with the truthbombs!

Well done he's 16

Well done, he's 16

Ahem.

They would be mad not to ask him for the Premier League. He will bring new eyes to darts.

 

[CallyRed]

Ahem.

Well done I'm 16

 

[One Night Only]

101 average in that match and lost.

 

[SilentWitness]

101 average in that match and lost.

Humphries cranked it up in the tournament when it mattered. 103 - 108 -103 averages in his last 3 games.

 

[The Cat]

I'm 16 too. I weighed this morning was a hefty Christmas.

 

[sidsutton]

It was set up for a Hitler reference but just needed time. Glad it's got there

Doubles, trebles and Goebbels
