DARTS fans was torn apart at the oche and then on social media after the reigning champ’s shock whitewash loss at the European Championship.
World no 40 Jermaine Wattimena KO’d two-time world king Snakebite 6-0 in Germany.
It wasn’t as big a surprise as Luke Littler’s 6-4 defeat to Andrew Gilding in the next match.
But the manner of Wright’s departure stunned viewers.
The 54-year-old only averaged in the mid-70s for much of a brief contest.
And that would have made him no match against any elite player.
One fan posted: “Up there with one of the worst performances I’ve seen by a so called top player.”
Another wrote: “Not even gonna lie, as a massive Wright fan: That was just sad. Every time Wright looks like he might be turning a corner, he does something like this.”
A third pointed out: “74 average, no attempts at doubles.”
A gobsmacked fourth said: “Unreal, he couldn’t find a treble to save his life. Poor performance heading towards world champs.”

And a fifth claimed: “Genuinely the worst performance I’ve ever seen from Wright in a season of sh*** performances.”
However, other viewers were baffled as Wright appeared to be putting his game in order in recent weeks – after a rough few months, including in the Premier League.
One said: “Thought Wright had found some sort of form.”
Another added: “Wow what happened for Wright, been so good on euro tours last couple of weeks.”
Meanwhile, more sympathetic darts lovers s urged the Scot to keep going and restore his pride at this year’s World Championships in December.
