JAMES WADE has proved that flatulent glee gets you everywhere – after the jubilant ‘Fartgate’ flinger won the support of Luke Humphries.
The Machine shrugged off controversy over his loud and less than proud intervention against Peter Wright by winning the Players Championship 19 days later.

The English oche ace was so overjoyed to be on-song after his pong that he posted a message on X.
And he got a surprise reply from Cool Hand – offering him congratulations… albeit with a twist.
Wade, 42, wrote: “Good Morning everyone. Wow!! I’m over the moon you can’t believe.
“I played well in all games this week and last night was the high I’ve been aiming for!! Celebrations all round.
“As always, thank you to all my supporters and the kind comments.
“Thank you to my sponsors and management team!””
World No.1 Humphries quickly pinged the pong-row flinger a mischievous response.

The 2024 Ally Pally king said: “Great farts mate!! I mean ‘Darts.”
Fans, however, managed to be even less subtle with their rip-ostes.
One wrote: “You have blown all your opponents away, the smell of success is strong when your on stage.”
Another added: “Must be great to let off a bit if steam, although Peter Wright might not agree.”
The farting furore exploded live on TV during Players Championship 17 when Wade let rip during a 6-5 victory over Wright.Snakebite might be better suited to dealing with stings than stinks – but he initially laughed it off.
Referee Owen Binks then reminded the players that “this is a streamed match, guys”.
Wade suggested his Scottish opponent “Give it a second” before he returned to the oche.
But Snakebite appeared to believe that time period was a clear under-estimate.
Meanwhile, Wade merely got better as the week wore on – at darts, that is – peaking with the PC19 crown.
Yet incredibly it’s the second time he’s been caught in a storm of his own brewing.
That blast from the past was at the Players Championship last September when he blamed the noise on velcro from his new trainers.
