What has been said?
Following his win over Cross, Littler told talkSPORT: “It’s mind-blowing. Inside of me I know I’m in the final but I just don’t show it, I don’t really know what to say.”

He added: “My mum and dad have been a massive help. I’ve got friends and other friends and other family members here and it’s all crazy.

“I want to win for myself but also want to win for the ones that have travelled down with me.”
