"This will help me believe in myself": Nathan Aspinall riding high after Gottingen success
PDC
Nathan Aspinall won the European Darts Trophy last weekend in Gottingen in what has been a real confidence booster for the popular Asp as he heads into Premier League Darts action in Newcastle.
Aspinall sealed his maiden European Tour title in Gottingen 8-4 against Ryan Joyce and will now set his attention towards Michael van Gerwen in Newcastle having majorly boosted his hopes.
He looks likely now for World Matchplay and World Grand Prix later this year and has boosted those hopes no end after this past week. He called it his proudest moment at the time and he said it gives him the belief he can still compete.

“That was a big win for me. It was what I needed,” insisted the 2020 Premier League runner-up after he sealed the title over the past weekend in Gottingen as he immediately set his focus onto this week in Newcastle.
“Because of the situation I’ve been in over the last few years with the injuries and the dartitis, it was probably my proudest moment.
"This will help me believe in myself and it shows I’m still good enough to compete against the top boys, so roll on Thursday against Michael.”
Aspinall has long been one of the most tenacious players on that was shown during his run in Gottingen where he saw off Gary Anderson in the semi-finals from behind. He hit a 170 checkout which was one of the moments of the year with his back against the wall with Anderson waiting to win.
He will hope for more heroics this week when he takes on Van Gerwen who had a confidence boosting week in Cardiff and Gottingen and looks more himself again aiding for what could be a brilliant tie between the pair.
ASPINALL IS THE CHAMPION! 🏆

- The next prodigy (prodigies) are just round the corner. Wonder if it gets to the stage of 180 after 180 being hit leg after leg whether there will be a modification to the equipment such as reduced doubles and trebles, reduce the size of the board or length of the oche?Mysstree25-03-2025
- obviously littler has the potential to surpass everybody simply because nobody has been this good at this age before, but people who think he would be any kind of favourite right now against prime taylor in a big final have short memories. it's obvious that prime taylor wouldn't win as many world titles if he was playing today, but there's also good reason to believe he'd be winning more than anybody else. hell, his statistical profile still stands alone in darts history and he might statistically be even better if he was playing today with better equipment, larger beds, more competition therefore more motivation, etc.colt24-03-2025
- Bad idea. Every other Major ranking title prize funds added together do not come to £1 million. Add £500k to the prize pot and spread it out evenly over the draw.Mysstree24-03-2025

- The Premier League is a glorified promotional tool for piss heads to attend and shout abuse at dart players so averages are not the way to pick the best line up. Throw Peter Manley, Eric Bristow and Jocky Wilson into the mix for some real fireworks.Mysstree22-03-2025
