A former darts star has criticised Gary Neville after hearing what he asked Luke Littler on Stick To Football.
Ever since his fairytale run to the final of the 2024 PDC World Darts Championships, Littler has become the new big name of the sport.
The teenager from Warrington went one better this year as he clinched the world title by easily brushing Michael van Gerwen aside.

Littler has also made a positive start to the 2025 Premier League campaign as he sits top of the table.
Recently, the darting sensation was quizzed by the likes of Neville, Jamie Carragher, Jill Scott, Roy Keane and Ian Wright on Stick to Football, brought to you by Sky Bet.
However, Two-time darts major winner Colin Lloyd was far from happy with one of the questions Neville asked the teenager.

Speaking on talkSPORT, he said: "Where they said if we threw three random numbers at you, would you be able to tell us the checkout, I actually thought that was a disrespectful question.
"Quite simply because of course we'll bloody know, we're professional dart players, our game is numbers."
Lloyd continued: "You know, that would have been like Gary Neville, if I kicked the ball Gary towards the goal, do you think you could slide tackle it to clear it off the line? Well, 'Yeah, cause I could because I'm a defender', but why do you ask about the numbers then?
"Was it Ian Wright who turned around and said 'He could call any number against us, we wouldn't know. Do your research fellas!

"How unprofessional did they make themselves look eh? How much are they disrespecting the sport of darts through not doing their homework."
SPORTbible has contacted Gary Neville's representatives for comment.
Speaking on Stick To Football, Littler accused Van Gerwen of 'trying to get in his head'.

He said: "Before every tournament, before we go on stage, we throw for nearest bull to see who goes first and every time I’ll go over to Michael van Gerwen, and he’ll try to get in my head about hitting the bullseye first but always get it before he does!"
