(VIDEO) "That's a fine..I'm sorry I'll pay it now": Joe Cullen left red-faced after swearing on air with likely DRA reprimand incoming

Joe Cullen just loves to silence the doubters as he was put as the underdog for his match against Bradley Brooks at the PDC World Darts Championship but despite winning through, he is unlikely to see some of that money.
Cullen hilariously swore on air during his post match interview where he mimicked Abigail Davies, the Sky Sports presenter and commentator's Welsh accent and swore while doing so. Before he awaited a likely DRA reprimand in the form of a fine by addressing the fact he likely would for the incident at the PDC World Darts Championship.
But the elation was for good reason as he averaged 99.33, his second highest ever on the Ally Pally stage and three five 180's with a checkout success of 50% in a 'cracking' swearing aside display. “Cracking, love, f****** cracking,” Cullen replied in a Welsh accent when asked about the display. Davies apologised straight away for his language and Cullen realised. “That’s a fine, I’m sorry, I’ll pay it now!”
It also harks back to last year where he famously silenced doubters by beating the highly fancied Wessel Nijman and stormed out of his press conference.
"The media attention that Wessel has got - again, this is not a reflection on him - he seems like a fantastic kid. The way I've been treated with the media and things like that…" he said at the time.
"I know you guys have no control of the bookies, but I've been shown no respect so I won't share any respect to any of you guys tonight. I'm going to go home. Cheers."

- DRA - just a warning please. Obviously not deliberate, in good spirits a s immediate apology. (P.s. Good on you Joe! Tough season, hope you keep that standard into the next round and beyond)BandB14-12-2025
- This bozo says he can't take darts any further and he's left it in a good place.....no-one cares about this nobody. The PDC was always in a good place before he came along. Does this buffon think the crowd are there for him.richieburnettrocks14-12-2025
- Yes, a warning indeed. He is coming to the buffet table, out of his way. This class A goof continues to blither about how he is playing the best darts of his life and even had the laughable audacity to say he was in the best shape of his life. He had a lucky run at Blackpool and even luckier at the World Championship and is still living off that. His form the past year especially the last 6 months completely sucks. 6 micky mouse titles mean nothing.richieburnettrocks13-12-2025
- I'm a big Huybretchs fan from when he broke through at the euros in the early days, but his action has gone. So jerky and inconsistent. Looking at where he'll be in the rankings, hopefully he can treat the new year as a new start, relax, enjoy it and push on without the pressure of defending lots of ££BandB12-12-2025
- Greaves could win Fallon might win Ashton might get a set Van Leuven could get a set deciders Hayter might get to a doubleBandB10-12-2025
- Congratulations Deta, champion at last. Although I was really hoping Sophie was going to win. Deta had a tough route to the final and a deserved Champion after soooooo many attempts.richieburnettrocks08-12-2025
- Congratulations Zehra, an excellent performance, 3-0 was harsh on Rebecca, she played well and actually won a decent trophy better than what Zehra won. I think it is extremely poor and insulting that the girls prize money is half of what the boys win. At that level it should be equal, girls wanting to take up darts will see the injustice of winnings and could think twice about taking up the sport. Ultimately, winning is the only thing that matters, but I would be vocal about prize money if the female equivalent was double the amount.richieburnettrocks08-12-2025
- Having been at Lakeside all week, I am glad it's over. It is not the same and the atmosphere is completely flat. Ultimately, I think they should reduce the format for the men, just make it 32 not 64. It's very long winded and completely rushed and compacted towards the last few days. Mitchell is an excellent player but had to play a 6 set boys final just hours before his 9 set mens final. If the whole competition was spread out he would have not been forced to play 2 major finals in an afternoon, it is ridiculous and Sophie McKinlay had the same situation last year.richieburnettrocks08-12-2025
