Earlier this month, Humphries was crowned the winner of the World Darts Championship for the first time in his career, capping off a stunning few months by defeating Luke Littler 7-4 in the final at the Alexandra Palace.
Humphries will parade around the pitch with the trophy at half-time. The 28-year-old Englishman has just returned from Bahrain, where he lost 6-4 to Gerwyn Price in the quarter-finals of the Bahrain Darts Masters.

- Even the Hearns and the PDC have had to kowtow to the DEI brigade or lose sponsorship, the DEI activist base may be small but is very vocal and being cancelled is bad for business and profit. There is a glimmer of hope though as folk do now seem to be pushing back especially as Starmergeddon is waking a lot more people up.Mysstree12-09-2024
- It seems odd that at the World Championship they have dancing ladies in hot pants and pom poms and yet the walk on ladies who were much more elegantly attired get removed from the scene. I met Daniella at Silverstone when she was a grid girl in the F1 race and was very pleasant indeed. It is a massive shame when you lose the ability to earn or be in the public eye due to bullsheet politics.richieburnettrocks12-09-2024
