His reaction when that was announced

Lumping fuck!

Big money these days! £2.5 million total prize fund.

Absolutely chuffed for the kid. So exciting to watch. Brilliant.

 

[Cooperman]

Lumping fuck!

Dart board is coming out tomorrow. Still got the nail in the wall of the garage.

Will chuck my usual twenty darts just to confirm that I haven’t got it

 

[stevethejack]

Got one, but I'm not any good.

 

[sainthelens]

Good to be alive to witness the start of a legend.
Bravo Nuke.

 

[LaJollaJack]

Same
7-4 Littler

(littler has a 104 avg over last coupla months vs MVG's 97 - momentum with Lukey (not our Lukey, obvs)

7-3
smashed it, beyond reasonable expectation
Momentum and confidence is everything.

Bravo Nuke.

Phenomenal talent. I loved this last leg, 132 required, bull, bull, and just misses the double 16.

Littler was outstanding as was MVG's attitude to Littler beating him, superb sportsmanship, had a lump in my throat watching Chris Hoy presenting Littler with the Trophy incredible man.

Seeing Sir Chris Hoy was the cherry on the cake.

Phenomenal viewing over Christmas. Simple things make me happy and in the sporting world what is simpler than a game of darts?

The end.

 

[sainthelens]

The only one hanging negative is the thought of em moving this thing to Saudi.
If it's a bigger arena they want, then get the O2.

 

[Darran]

Canny imagine how Luke Littler’s parents feel. The pride of seeing your 17 year old son become world champion. I nearly burst out crying when my 17 year old emptied the fuckin dishwasher without being asked.

He's either going to have a 40+ year career that makes Phil Taylor blush

Or he's going to go on the piss for the next 40 (18 this month) and we'll never see him again

Sure I just heard on the wireless that TV execs are willing to break the bank to have him as host of Bullseye, sure that’s what they said anyway.
