Poor lad, it’s probably put him right off omelettes, pizza and kebabs.

“Opinion - Luke Littler is appealing to the world’s worst sport fans: he could ruin darts forever.

Oh, Luke Littler, what have you done? The boy genius didn’t merely get to the final of the World Darts Championship and pocket £200,000, he also inspired an explosion of interest from the world’s worst fans. The same appalling people who almost ruined football 30 years ago have come to ruin the only truly working-class sport left.

If you ask most Londoners which part of town will be the last to resist gentrification, the answer will invariably be Tottenham. Darts is the Tottenham of sport. But now even darts is under threat from the chattering classes entranced by the success of a 16-year-old who looks old enough to be his own father. Every Tom, Dick and Tristan will be chanting that bloody awful song they play in the ad breaks.

So excited about Littler was the Guardian yesterday that it asked its readers: “Tell us, have you recently become a darts fan?” — an invitation so cringeworthy that it did not so much make your flesh creep as give you the sensation of being flayed alive by a set of Wüsthof kitchen knives. This morning The Times was craven enough to offer a guide on “how to talk darts”. Seriously, if you don’t know by now don’t bother.“

Beating former world champions along the way, he’s wiped the floor with his opponents.

In his first ever go at something like this, his performance is nothing short of miraculous.

He only did his GCSE’s a few months back, but here he is now, one of the best darts players on the planet.

If he doesn’t lift the trophy, who cares?

He’s already made history.

Sadly we can’t watch it unless we subscribe. Bastards!

Ah.

Luke Humphries beats Luke Littler to glory
