LUKE LITTLER says sickened stars have to ignore the disrespectful darts whistlers.
The world champion was caught in the centre of the Glasgow storm as his final against Luke Humphries was hijacked by unruly idiots.
Littler and the world No.1 were both badly affected by whistling from the crowd at key moments on Thursday.
Gerwyn Price was also angry and fired back at offenders with an on-stage wolf whistle of his own after a crucial shot.
Referees have taken a tougher stance in recent times with incidents in both World Series events in Bahrain and Holland being called out on the mics.
And darts chiefs have issued a stinging rebuke after the chaos. A statement read: "The PDC wishes to strongly reiterate that it does not condone any behaviour which can disrupt an event, such as whistling or booing when players are throwing. As per the terms and conditions of entry to events, spectators who act inappropriately can be removed from the venue."
