Michael van Gerwen criticizes the arbitrator: ‘Whisting audience is part of it’ | Darts

The leader responded several times to someone in the audience who was whooping. Van Gerwen thought afterwards that Bray only made the situation worse. “It was extremely irritating. I was dissatisfied because of my own game, but the referee makes a mistake on top of that,” MVG said ViaPlay†

According to Van Gerwen, the fence of the dam is when referees respond to all the whistles. “I have a whistling audience a hundred times a year. That’s part of it. But now every time I wanted to throw it, he turned to say something. As a referee he doesn’t have the authority to kick anyone out, and it was clear that one annoying whistler wouldn’t stop. Still he went on. That distracts me.”

On social media, Van Gerwen emphasized that he was not angry with the fans. “The atmosphere in Aberdeen was great this evening, thank you Scotland.”
