Game on.. Luke back on winning ground after disastrous stint at Red Devils on his Xbox

- BY MIKE WALTERS

IN THE parallel universes of a boy king, Luke Littler has been sacked twice by Manchester United and paraded the Holy Grail in front of the Stretford End.

'Luke the Nuke' conquered the world at 17 years and 347 days on the oche, but glory playing Football Manager on his games console has been a tougher nut to crack.

As manager of his beloved United, Littler was fired by the Red Devils for being fifth in January one season and fifth in February in his second 'reign' at the Theatre of Dreams.

If the adage about life imitating art is true, Ruben Amorim is sailing dangerously close to the wind.

But when Littler begins the defence of his Paddy Power PDC World Championship against Lithuanian slowcoach Darius Labanauskas tonight, the odds-on favourite will bear no mental scars from his misadventures on the Xbox.
