NATHAN ASPINALL admits he needs to make his money and “get out” of darts because there will be “no stopping” Luke Littler. The Stockport star was KO’d by his stablemate The Nuke in the World Championship quarter-finals. Asp, 33, is one of the closest players to 17-year-old Littler on the tour, sharing darts firm Target and ZXF Management.

But he fears that the teen sensation and a next batch of youngsters will make it impossible for the current stars. On Littler, he told talkSPORT: “I can’t see him stopping to be honest with you. "I’m probably one of his better mates on the tour. “Before the Worlds last year when he made the final he was at my house practising so I’m quite close to Luke.
