Price reveals boos and whistles added to artificial crowd noise: "As soon as I heard that I didn't wanna be there"

Even without a crowd, Gerwyn Price is still the subject of boos and whistles as he found out during the Premier League Darts on Tuesday.
With crowds not allowed due to the Coronavirus pandemic, it was decided to use artificial crowd noise. However not only cheers can be heard but also boos and whistles; much to the annoyance of Price.
'The Iceman' who has been subject to the pantomime villain role of sorts; since his incident with Gary Anderson at the Grand Slam of Darts took to Facebook.
"Don’t know who’s choice it was to put the boos and whistles in the artificial crowd noise but personally I think it’s an absolute p*** take; soon as I heard that I didn’t wanna be there... suppose that’s another hurdle I’ll have to overcome."

- @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
- Many fans had a sour taste in their mouth by the end of this match. Mike was cruising to victory, playing beautiful darts, when the whistling started in earnest, particularly on his doubles. You could see in Mike's face that it was really affecting his concentration. The referee should have asked for order, just to show that the whistling is unacceptable, and Luke Littler could also have done his part to quieten down the crowd instead of "taking full advantage.:" I put that down to his age though. He needs some good advice on this from his management team and/or more seasoned players. It's got to be about who's best on the night, not who is being harassed by the crowd. Luke Littler played well to get back into the game and win, but it was a hollow victory. If he goes on to win the tournament, that triumph too will be tainted because of this match.
UndartedWaters15-11-2024 - Agree. Van der voort will be the one taking a break when he loses his tour card. Everyone saying about how bad Wright's last 18 months have been, and in that time he's won several Euro tours and the European Championships.Matilda6215-11-2024
- When Littler has at least five ranking Majors he’s in the discussion, until then, forget it.Mysstree14-11-2024
- 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
