Any reasons to why Humphries seems to be an unpopular figure for a lot of the crowd at Ally Pally this championship?

He's just a bit boring I think. Nothing more to it than that.

Cross littler will be interesting. He hasn’t had anyone play well against him, if cross can average over 100 it will be interesting to see how he copes. Part was interviewed and said when he won his first worlds he only ever lost one set so didn’t ever have to find out if he could handle the pressure. Can’t see past Humphries in the other - don’t think Williams can play better than he did tonight (mid 90s average) but Humphries should be better than that

this lad is utterly brilliant.

under pressure, against a brilliant player playing well, what a stunning performance so far.

His composure at the age of 16 is remarkable. Absolutely remarkable.
It just goes to show that if you get the mental part of the game right, you can withstand everything thrown at you.
He doesn’t overreact in any particular situation. He just keeps throwing great darts.

Littler is scoring on a level that Phil Taylor did when he was at his very best and to think he is only 16.

Cross came out like Billy Big Bollocks and got his arse handed to him by Littler 🤣

Don't think Littler fears anyone but feels like out of the 2 in the next semi , only Humphries A game comes close.

When somebody like this comes along, it blows the ceiling off what people think is possible.
It’s great for all sports. All walks of life.
It’s inspiring.
Why can’t young people find that composure to stay calm and confident under pressure.
