Fallon Sherrock detailed the unfortunate side to darts in the form of vile abuse she received on social media after she lost in Wednesday's MODUS Icons of Darts League.

Receiving the message on Instagram after losing to Dave Parletti; she shared it with her 97,000 Twitter followers to show a problem which has been highlighted not only by The Queen of the Palace; but a lot of players involved in the online leagues during lockdown.

Sherrock posted on Twitter: “All I did was not win a game of darts, this is so wrong.” with a screenshot of the Instagram message which said: "You're so s** you s***. I’d love to stamp on your ugly head."

David Evans who has been involved in the MODUS Icons of Darts League since its inception was one of a number of players to support the Milton Keynes ace on Twitter: "I completely feel your pain Fallon. I get them too and it is so wrong just because they have lost 50p on a bet.

Just do what I do and block them and ignore it I know it’s hard to do; but I’m doing this it lets them know that they haven’t got to you."

Since this tweet was released, the account which sent the message to Sherrock has been suspended.
