‘Darts heritage’ – Fans spot perfect way Rob Cross beat Gerwyn Price after Welshman showed off chippy on Sky Sports

Fans spot perfect way Rob Cross beat Gerwyn Price after Welshman showed off chippy on Sky Sports

ROB CROSS produced an incredible Big Fish finish to defeat chippy owner Gerwyn Price.

Cross and Price faced off on night seven of this year's Darts Premier League.

Gerwyn Price was in action on home soil

Proud Welshman Price, 40, was roared on by a passionate Cardiff crowd.

But Cross silenced The Iceman's home support after a thrilling finish.

Ahead of the contest, Sky Sports had broadcast a feature with Price showing presenter Polly James around his chip shop in Markham, South Wales.

So when Cross conjured a 170 checkout, known as a Big Fish, to stun Price 6-5 in their quarter-final, fans couldn't help but notice the irony.

One wrote on social media: “Sky running a pre-match feature with Gerwyn Price at his chippy only for Rob Cross to take out the big fish to win the match is Premier League Darts heritage.”

While a second gushed: “That’s pure darts poetry. Sky really set it up like a movie, and Voltage delivered the perfect plot twist.”

A third pointed out: “Could not have been scripted any better.”

Another added: “Absolute Cinema.”
