Dennis Priestley advises Luke Littler not to play Premier League

Luke Littler would do well not to enter the prestigious Premier League Darts yet next season, according to former world champion and 2007 Premier League participant, Dennis Priestley.

Littler will play Luke Humphries in the final of the World Darts Championship on Wednesday night and there is a chance that the PDC will give him an invitation to the Premier League, especially if 'The Nuke' actually becomes world champion.

''Obviously, it's a certainty that the PDC will want Luke in the Premier League,'' Priestley told BoyleSports. ''But if I was his manager, I'd wait another year. I've played in it myself and the schedule is so hectic."

Priestley points to the packed calendar. ''You travel to the venue on Wednesday, play on Thursday, then they want you on tour on the Friday. It's consistent and it won't do him any good. I think Luke would take the offer, obviously. But in the long run, he'd be better off turning it down for a year or so."
