The Asp also said that the media attention teenager Littler has received after his run to the World Championship final at Alexandra Palace in January, at which he lost 7-4 to Humphries, has “got under the skin” of his Premier League opponents, although admits Littler has been a “fantastic addition” to the Premier League.
“What he has done for the game is amazing,” Aspinall said of The Nuke.
“He has kind of got under everyone’s skin because of what he is doing and what he is getting.
“We are like: ‘Who is this kid that got to the final of the Worlds and is now getting this, that and the other?’ It does kind of get under your skin and we are there to knock him down as much as we can.
“But there is no denying that he is a fantastic talent and a great addition to the Premier League.”
