Luke Littler booed AGAIN live on Sky Sports at Premier League Darts before cheekily taunting crowd
MANCHESTER UNITED fans have had it rough this season and darts sensation Luke Littler is no exception.
The Nuke was outspoken about being a Red Devils supporter ahead of last month’s Premier League event in Liverpool, where he was jeered loudly.
And he took more abuse tonight from a raucous crowd in Leeds – another of United’s bitter rivals.
Littler, 167, missed five chances to land a 180 with the crowd delightedly booing each errant arrow.
But he got his own back as he landed the sixth before turning to the crowd and pointing to his ear.
The teenage titan smashed Peter Wright 6-1 as he looks to extend his lead at the top of the Premier League table.
That is a sight few United fans will be used to as they currently sit eighth after getting battered 4-0 by Crystal Palace.
Littler enjoys winding up opposition players and fans, with Liverpool seemingly his favourite target.
After Jurgen Klopp’s side were dumped out of the Europa League last month Littler could not resist a dig.
He posted a meme online with the caption: “What is the difference between Luke Littler and Jurgen Klopp? Littler has more trebles!”

Littler also mocked Liverpool following their back-to-back defeats against Atalanta and Crystal Palace.
Fellow pro Michael Smith warned the teen to “calm down” ahead of the night in Liverpool and warned he was in for some stick because of his remarks about Klopp and his team.
He said: “We say the right things to him. We don’t try to guide him off course obviously.
“If he’s doing something wrong, we say ‘listen calm that down’.
“We had a word with him the other week because he keeps winding Liverpool up like Klopp and everything.
“We said ‘you’ve got Liverpool in two weeks, you’ve got to calm that down, you are going to get some stick on that stage.'”
Inside Littler's massive rise
LUKE LITTLER has taken the darts world by storm since exploding onto the scene at the PDC World Championship.
The Nuke reached the final on his Ally Pally debut at just 16 years of age – smashing records along the way.
He has since joined Jude Bellingham on the Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe list.
And the teenage titan even had to snub an invite from the WWE.
The Sun exclusively revealed that Littler is plotting to create a fitness empire.
He is also cashing in away from the Oche thanks to an Instagram side hustle.
And he’s even the face of a brand new cereal.
