[LamieRobertson]

Enjoyable to watch that….i’d have normally given it a miss…glad I didn’t

 

[TomandJerry]

Both players will go on to be future great players.

Credit to Humphries, fully deserved.

But if only Littler hit that double two

The first (and possibly the last) darts match that I've watched all the way through.

"Humphires wanted to win tonight so he could buy his dad a house so he could retire"

 

[Billy the Fish]

Brilliant match, shame it couldn't go the distance.

It felt much closer than 7-4. Think almost every set went to a decider didn't it?

 

[TomandJerry]

Littler lost it with the Double 2 miss. Match defining moment

 

[Hugo Rune]

Both players will go on to be future great players.

I can see Littler dominating for the next 20 years.

It's amazing how kebab's age the body...

Nice speech from Humphries, always good to see someone overcome mental health issues to succeed. Good for him. *also, he won me £100 so I'm pleased about too!

I think his Dad might treat him to one or two tonight. An incredibly proud night for him.

Do you cut through the torso and count the onion rings?

The winner seems a nice chap.

Well done.

"Humphires wanted to win tonight so he could buy his dad a house so he could retire"

Seems like a top fella, who's been through a lot to get where he is now. Well played both of them.

As an aside, I wonder how much Joey Barton will be frothing about there being WOMEN talking about darts?!

 

[Guinness Boy]

Humphries deserved that.

Against any other opponent an English guy playing that well, with a history of mental struggle would have been everyone’s favourite.

Unfortunately he came across a 16 year old kid who can’t help but be likeable.

But, as he said himself, good time for Humphries to win because Littler could be the next Phil Taylor,

Feels like that missed Double 2 (the difference between 5-2 and 4-3) could be pivotal.

Absolutely this!
