Humphries was just a throw from defeat with him a set and two legs down when he launched a stunning fightback.
But despite his brilliant win, Cool Hand raged post-match about the fans inside Leicester’s Mattioli Arena.
Humphries was unhappy with the crowd after they spent much of the evening singing football chants.
The Leeds United fan said: “It was kind of hard with the crowd behind you just chanting football chants all the time.
“Lets leave football at home, we are at the darts now.
“But I was not going to retaliate because I just cannot be bothered, we are here to play darts.
“I support Leeds, everyone knows that, but lets leave the football chants at home. We are darts players – not footballers.
“If I’m in a football field and Leeds are playing against whoever and they’re chanting it to me whilst I’m there, then I’ll accept it, love it, and embrace it.

“It’s just constant but it will not impact me and it did not impact me winning that game.”
Humphries also said players demand “respect” from the crowd after they allegedly made off-putting noises while he was at the oche.
He is back in action on Wednesday when he faces Ricardo Pietreczko, who squared up to Luke Littler on stage in March.
