‘I’m disappointed because I get on with him’ – Aspinall hurt after darts pal calls Premier League selection ‘scandalous’

NATHAN ASPINALL has hit back at Mike De Decker after he claimed he only got in the Premier League because of a good walk-on song.

The ex-World Matchplay champ reacted to the Belgian lashing out over being left out of the prestigious 17-week tournament.

De Decker said that Aspinall was only picked by the PDC “purely for entertainment” and that his Mr Brightside entrance tune made him box office.

The Asp, 33, quickly dismissed De Decker’s comments and told him to improve his world ranking if he wanted to reach the big time.

He told The Metro: “Is that what he’s said? I haven’t seen it because I’ve come off social media.

“I still have my account there, but I’m not on it because the abuse was getting ridiculous.

“I’m disappointed he’s said that because I get on with Mike, but if he wants to be in then get higher up the rankings.

“He can count himself unlucky because he’s won a big major, but he’s ranked 24th in the world and went out early in the Worlds.”

After winning his first major last October, De Decker appeared to be in line for a Prem spot.

But he becomes the first Grand Prix winner to miss out on a spot in two decades.

His exit from the World Championship at the first hurdle to Luke Woodhouse last month most certainly sealed his fate.

De Decker also hit out at Gerwyn Price’s inclusion after he had earlier stated last year he didn’t want to be in the Premier League, which he later did a U-turn on.

He said: “I don’t get it at all, especially Aspinall and Price. They didn’t deserve it.

“And then they reach a quarter-final at the World Championship and suddenly they’re there.

“If Price throws badly for two out of the first three weeks, he’ll post something on Instagram again and start complaining. But they’ll stick him in again.

DeChambeau spent much of last November trying to complete the hole-in-one test.

It saw the LIV Golf star attempt to hit a 100-yard ace over his house into his garden, where he has built a practice course.

Bryson, 31, finally achieved the hole-in-one on Day 16 of the challenge, taking a total of 134 shots.

Following the feat, he opened up the challenge to the public and allowed fans to compete for a six-figure payout.

But DeChambeau was not ready for amateur Jimmy Elliot, who rocked up to the golfer’s pad in Florida with luck on his side.

Elliot, on just his fifth attempt, hit a perfect wedge over the 100ft house and onto the green.

The ball bounced kindly before running down the slope and into the hole.

A stunned Bryson celebrated wildly with Elliot in a video which quickly went viral.

He gasped: “It literally took him six minutes to make it. It took me 134 frickin’ balls.”

Jimmy, looking completely blown away, added: “That was incredible.

“Thank you to Bryson. This is incredible. Life-changing, man. Thank you.

“This is up there with my wedding day.”

He added with a grin: “So don’t tell my wife.”

One fan responded on X: “Bragging rights over his buddies for a long time.”

Another said: “I’ll take this experience over 5 holes in 1 on the course.”

While a third added: “The bounce from God.”

DeChambeau, a two-time major winner, is currently ranked No. 4 in the world.

Known as The Scientist, the 31-year-old grew up in Grapevine, Texas, and has racked up over £60million in career earnings.

The US Open champion expanded his social media reach in 2024 and golfed alongside incoming president Donald Trump in his hit YouTube format Break 50.

After undergoing some medical examinations, he returned home on Wednesday night.

The midfielder gave fans an update on social media, writing: “All good, guys! Thank you for the messages!!! Congratulations for the victory boys!!!”

Bentancur will now be set for a period on the sidelines while he recovers.

According to the Daily Mail, he will not be allowed back to the club’s training ground until he is given the medical green light.

Spurs doctors will stay in regular contact with the midfielder to ensure he is not rushed back.

Lucas Bergvall scored a late winner to give his team the advantage going into the second leg at Anfield.

Discussing the incident with Bentancur after the match, Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou said: “I don’t have all the information.

“My understanding is he is conscious and he was conscious when he got to the dressing room. We took him to hospital to get him checked over.

“It was worrying and always a concern but from what I know hopefully he will be OK.”

Mrs Hinch fans raving over a £1 buy that ‘sucks up all the moisture’ from your condensation-covered windows in no time

FANS of the cleaning sensation Mrs Hinch have discovered a bargain find that will ”suck up all the moisture” from your windows – and it will set you back just £1.

A common annoyance for a number of people around the worldcondensation is water droplets that form on a window when moist air comes into contact with a cold surface.

Not only can this make for an unsightly mess, but these water droplets can also lead to the growth of mould – which, in some cases, can be fatal.

Amongst those most vulnerable are newborns, young kids, elderly, as well as those with respiratory issues, allergies and asthma.

With the cold snap now in full force, thousands of Brits have been taking to social media to seek tips on how to tackle the issue, with many offering their favourite solutions.

One of them was Mrs Hinch fan Gemma OReilly, who told Facebook users how a purse-friendly bargain from the high street got rid of the condensation in her house with no faff.

According to Gemma, from Newtownards, Northern Ireland, fellow cleaning enthusiasts should best head to their nearest Savers where they can bag a special cloth that’s bound to become a firm household favourite.

Sharing a snap of the Buzz Glass Cloth, Gemma wrote: ”That time of the year that terrible condensation comes back on the windows.

”Found these in savers, £1 and omg for such a thin cloth they suck up all the moisture!”

The mum went on in the post, advising other web users to give it a go themselves: ”Definitely worth a try if your windows are as bad as mine in the mornings.”

Retailing for just a quid, the packaging of the bargain find states that not only will the product tackle any moisture on your windows, it also won’t leave any annoying streaks.

What’s more, the £1 cleaning essential also works wonders to tackle stubborn finger smudges and marks, leaving your windows ”crystal clear”.

Need more convincing to head to the local Savers branch in the upcoming days? There have been plenty of rave reviews on the platform, with one fan dubbing the cloth a ”godsend”.

These have been a godsend, highly recommended. I have one for the house and one in the car, wipe down with micro fibre cloth first then dry completely with no smudges or streaks with minky grey glass cloth, as each morning comes along.

”The condensation has reduced each time, got mine from savers.”

Someone else chimed in and said they’d seen the same bargain elsewhere too, writing: ”Found them on Amazon too.”

What is condensation?

Condensation is water droplets that form on a window when moist air comes into contact with a cold surface.

Condensation occurs when: 

Air cools

Warmer air can hold more moisture than cooler air. When moist air touches a cold surface, like a window, the water vapour in the air turns into liquid water droplets. 

Windows are colder than walls

Windows are often colder than insulated walls, so condensation is more likely to occur on them.

Windows are poorly insulated

Poorly insulated windows can lead to condensation, especially if they are made of aluminium, which conducts heat quickly.  If left untreated, it can lead to mould and other serious problems. 

An online shopper gave the product the maximum of five stars, raving: ”I can’t believe how good this cloth is, I used on my mirrors, windows and door glass and it’s fantastic.

”No sprays needed just sprinkle water on the cloth so it is just damp and off you go. It’s so quick and results in lovely clean, smear free mirrors and glass.”

A fourth wished they’d come across the affordable cloth sooner, writing: ”This cloth is great at cleaning condensation off our windows !!

”Quick drying, absorbent and leaves no steaks – great for winter! Wish I had known about this cloth before.”
