Following on from the news that Adrian Lewis has receive a £3000 fine, and a suspended 3 month suspension, he has issued the following statement.
I am now in a position to issue a statement as the due process has taken place and the Darts Regulation Authority have had their hearing.
I deeply regret that my frustrations got the better of me as I felt that my opponent was trying to provoke me.
I realise now that I should have reported any problems to Tournament Officials instead of confronting Jose Antonio Justicia Perales after the match.
I would like to offer my sincere apologies to the PDC, the sponsors of the event Coral, my own sponsors who I thank for their loyalty and support, my manager, darts fans and finally my family.
I would like to say a big thank you for all of the kind messages sent to me from all over the World, and now I just want to put this all behind me and concentrate of playing the game I love and trying to make my way back to the top.

- This is the difference between other players and Phil Taylor. Phil would be completely motivated even before his walk on and didn't need anything else to do so.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
- Still impressive though. Also literally everyone cares about averages that's what makes darts fascinating.medinabello14-11-2024
- BS he won a Euro Tour during this down period something that not many players can say. Dobey, Noppy, DvD, Ross Smith to name just a few.medinabello14-11-2024
- Maybe the supposed top players are burnt out from the endless travelling and tournaments, I just don't think they have the dedication or outright desire to win. I think they are more interested in the money and being popular, just keeping their rankings steady. The only thing that mattered to Phil Taylor was winning, not winning a few games to top up the money pot and seeking the fans attention. Maybe there is too many tournaments now and the enthusiasm is gone. This year especially has seen so many different winners and unexpected draws and line ups.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
- Nobody cares about averages, the only record he'll take from Phil and its meaningless. Winning tournaments is the only importance of darts and nobody will ever eclipse Phil in any meaningful way. What does an average pay or warrant any success, this proves that, yet people still bang on about them.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
