Sky Sports commentator leaves darts fans stunned with opening remarks at Premier League event in Liverpool

A Sky Sports commentator left darts fans stunned with his opening remarks of the Premier League Darts in Liverpool.

The M&S Bank Arena in Liverpool played host to Night 12 of the Premier League Darts, with Gerwyn Price beating Luke Humphries in the final.

Price beat Chris Dobey in the quarter-finals before seeing off Rob Cross in the semi-finals while Humphries defeated Nathan Aspinall and Michael van Gerwen.

During his opening match against Aspinall, which kicked off the Sky Sport's broadcast, commentator Rod Studd made a hilarious remark on air.

He mentioned Liverpool's impending Premier League title while aiming a brutal dig at Everton's position in the table.

Studd said: "We are here in Liverpool - home of the soon-to-be Premier League champions and, in fairness to Stuart Pyke, home of 13th place Everton, currently in a gruelling struggle to maintain that position, with Man United, Wolves, Spurs and West Ham United... 13th is the place where it's all happening."

As Studd alluded to during commentary, Liverpool are just one point away from winning this season's Premier League title. The Reds could be crowned English champions on Sunday when they host Tottenham.

He also mentioned Everton's position. David Moyes' side occupy 13th place, with 38 points on the board. The Scot has turned their fortunes around since his appointment last January.

The Toffees sit above the likes of Manchester United, Wolves, Spurs and West Ham.

Price, meanwhile, claimed his third nightly win as he aims for a top four spot ahead of finals night on May 29 at London's O2 Arena.

"I just want to make top four." he said after his victory in Liverpool.

"It doesn't matter whether it's one, two, three or four as long as I am at the O2 in a few weeks.

"I managed to get five points today and that eases the pressure. I am playing really well so there is no reason I can't win every week."
