darts champion Peter 'Snakebite' Wright has revealed the secret in his luggage which keeps him firing on all cylinders: Bombay Bad Boy pot noodles.Wright has endured patchy form in this year's Cazoo Premier League, partly due to health problems with his gallstones and his incurable inclination to switch darts in search of the perfect arrows.But the 52-year-old Scot has been consistent in at least one aspect of his routine – his, er, simple diet.

Wright, who faces fit-again James Wade at London's O2 Arena on Thursday, revealed: "I’ve always got Pot Noodles in the luggage ready to go."When you finish playing darts at the end of a tournament and get back to the hotel, the room service is either nothing or a big pizza.

It’s something to eat after a long day. I like the Bombay Bad Boy or just the chicken one."I thought I’d do a lot better in the Premier League this year.
