Nathan Aspinall will participate in the play-offs in his debut (full) season in the Premier League Darts. The Asp defeated Glen Durrant on Night 16 with 8-2.
Aspinall had enough with one point to keep Gerwyn Price definitively behind him in the rankings. With this convincing victory, the Englishman even finished third in the rankings, as he passed Gary Anderson.
The former UK Open champion scored an average of over 101, took out 170 and achieved a strong finish percentage of 61 percent. The Stockport ace shot off the starting blocks with a 3-0 lead and a little later ran out to 6-1. Durrant took one more leg, before his fellow countryman finished nicely with a 124 finish and a 17-darter.
Aspinall will face Peter Wright in the semi-finals of the play-offs. Anderson takes on Durrant on October 22.

- The pundits glossing over the other factor at play in that match. They appear to be somewhat constrained in what they can say publicly.
UndartedWaters16-11-2024 - So, you don't like Littler, then? I was cheering him on, being a fellow Englishman. Honestly, some of us get far too offended nowadays. If you want to see crowd passion... watch a match when German and Dutch players face off... that can be just as bad if not worse for crowd noises. It happens, I have watched and heard Littler being jeered - Dirk van Duijvenbode in Holland, January this year. Where was your outrage then? Yes, I can clearly see what is going on here.MrYnyslas197116-11-2024
- It happens. Remember, anyone who has watched German and Dutch players in matches - their respective countries will have seen/heard just as bad jeering (if not worse). Taylor and MVG are two prime examples of professionals who are able to cope with the crowds mentally and not take it personally. This is not just an English crowd problem, FFS.MrYnyslas197116-11-2024
- Was watching an old World Masters final the other day between Eric Bristow and John Lowe, the crowd respect for both players on throw was first class, not a sound. You can imagine now the idiots who were whistling on De Deckers throw proudly boasting about it on social media. I blame the PDC to a certain extent though doubt they really care as they win regardless of which player wins or loses.Mysstree16-11-2024
- @UndartedWaters I totally agree with your thoughts! I totally respect Kirk but in this instance I was disappointed with his lack of crowd control. I even turned to my husband and said "Could you imagine this happening if Russ Bray was the referee tonight? At least there would have been a crowd admonishment- Ladies and Gentleman please." I so felt for Mike DeDecker...MamaVenus15-11-2024
