PQ magazine was recently at the PDC World Darts Championship supporting former trainee accountant Nathan Aspinall. He lost that night to a certain Luke ‘the nuke’ Littler, in one of the best games of the tournament. Although ranked 11th in the world his performance means he has made it on to the Premiership League line-up. ‘The Aspe’ is obviously such a talented sportsman. He played as a semi-professional football goalkeeper in his youth, and was scouted by Manchester United. He was even offered a deal at Rangers.
Unsure about a future in football Aspinall worked as a trainee accountant, before quitting to becoming a professional darts player! The rest as they say is history.
