His impressive accolades and lucrative sponsorship deals have even propelled him to a net worth of over £2million and helped him become one of the nation's most-loved sportsmen.

Pointing to the impressive accolades sitting on a shelf next to the sofa, AngryGinge asks him: 'What have we got behind us here, Luke?' He laughs before correcting himself, adding: 'What haven't we got?' Smirking, Luke acknowledges his awards, including his incredible achievement in May when he became the first person to win five Premier League nights in the same year.

You're doing alright.' But then he lovingly mocks: 'You can do all this, but you can't pass your driving theory.' Luke, who laughs in response, previously revealed when he turned 17 that driving lessons were first on his agenda. But it appears he's been unable to hit the roads ever since as he continues to stall over his theory test. Following his show-stopping display at Alexandra Palace in January, Luke, of Warrington, Cheshire, said he was desperate to get behind the wheel. He revealed that his dream car is a modest Mercedes A-Class - a step up from his previous favourite Ford Focus - and he was eyeing one up with his £500,000 winnings. But the sportsman was initially forced to cancel his driving lessons due to burnout fears regarding his busy schedule. He had more bad luck when vandals trashed his van in May during an exhibition appearance in Norwich. Luke, who owns the vehicle and is driven around by his team, branded the thugs 'scum of the earth'. His representative has been contacted for comment. 5 Luke and AngryGinge have been close friends for some time with the YouTube star often appearing at Luke's darts matches Credit: Reuters

Angry Ginge's spat with Carlos Tevez heats up as X-rated Soccer Aid remark made
Manchester United fan Angry Ginge made an X-rated revelation about Carlos Tevez during his live stream, having clashed with the former Argentina star during Soccer Aid Angry Ginge continued his running feud with Carlos Tevez by labelling the football legend a "f***ing traitor" after their Soccer Aid clash. Popular streamer Angry Ginge, real name Morgan Burtwistle, lived out his childhood dream of playing on the Old Trafford turf during Sunday's charity game. The lifelong United fan played in defence for England during Soccer Aid 2025, which meant he faced former Red Devils striker Tevez, who represented the World XI. Tevez won two Premier League titles and the Champions League with United but infamously joined rivals Manchester City in 2009. He instantly became a loathed figure at the Theatre of Dreams and severed all ties by celebrating against his former club during a Manchester Derby. That was evidently still fresh in Burtwistle's mind as the YouTuber saw his chance to get revenge during Sunday's friendly game, flying in with a crunching challenge on the Argentine. He got the ball but Tevez was left unhappy with the aggressive nature of the challenge and made sure to leave something on Ginge, slightly kicking out at the defender. Tevez quickly realised where he was and decided to then shake hands with the 23-year-old. For Ginge, however, the bad blood remained beyond the final whistle as he took to Instagram to post a photo of a nasty gash on his leg courtesy of Tevez. His caption read: "Cheers Tevez, t***," echoing his thoughts on the Boca Juniors icon, having once admitted that he "can't stand" him. And he wasn't done there, later revealing on one of his live streams that he had his match-worn Soccer Aid shirt signed by everyone on both teams, except Tevez, who he slammed. The internet personality said: "Look at that. Signed by every single person on the team. And the away team. Bar one man. The f***ing traitor. Tevez ain't signing my f***ing shirt. Not in a million years. No chance." Tevez had the last laugh, however, scoring four goals in just 15 minutes to lead the World XI's comeback. He was booed after each goal by the crowd but appeared to revel in his role as the pantomime villain, cupping his ear and pointing to the name on the back of his shirt. He managed to level the game, which paved the way for musician Big Zuu to score the late winner and secure a memorable 5-4 victory. Zuu emphatically celebrated with his own version of Cristiano Ronaldo's Siu celebration. Ginge, meanwhile, had the consolation of being awarded Player of the Match over Tevez. His tireless defensive work included diving across the goal to stop France World Cup winner David Trezeguet from scoring the equaliser.

Soccer Aid star Angry Ginge mocks Carlos Tevez with hilarious chant - after labelling former footballer a 't***' for horror tackle which gashed his leg
Soccer Aid star Angry Ginge ridiculed Carlos Tevez with a mocking chant after their hot-blooded clash at Old Trafford on Sunday. Ginge, a streamer whose real name is Morgan Burtwistle, is a lifelong Manchester United fan and previously said he 'can't stand' Tevez. Tevez, 41, famously joined Manchester City in 2009 after two years on loan at United - and helped the Sky Blues their first Premier League title. And despite the feel-good charity nature of Soccer Aid, there was bad blood at the game as the duo were involved in a vicious challenge. With the game poised at 4-4 in the latter stages, Angry Ginge went in for a strong slide tackle on the Argentinian, who made sure to leave something on him during the collision - a nasty cut on his leg. Angry Ginge shared a photo of the gash on his leg afterwards, writing 'cheers Tevez, t***' on social media, but he was not done there. The streamer went in for an uncompromising challenge on the former Argentina striker Taking to Twitch, he bragged about his programme had been signed by other Soccer Aid favourites, before launching into a re-imagination of 'Zombie' by the Cranberries. 'In your head, in your head, Tevez, Tevez, Tevez-ez-ez, I'm in your head, in your head, Tevez, Tevez, Tevez-ez-ez,' the 23-year-old sang. But in a moment of humility, he added: 'I will be honest, he did score four.' Tevez was dominant on the night, scoring four times in 15 minutes as the World XI edged out England 5-4. Tevez was booed by the crowd after each of them but his efforts levelled the game, allowing Big Zuu to score a late winner for a 5-4 triumph. Earlier, Tevez appeared to revel in the role of pantomime villain as he responded to the boos by cupping his ear and showing the crowd the back of his shirt. Wayne Rooney had earlier opened the scoring in front of the Stretford End, before ex-Lionesses star Toni Duggan doubled the home side's lead. Jermain Defoe put England 3-0 up before Tevez clawed two back in a thrilling second half, but we weren't done there. Defoe bagged his second to give the hosts a 4-2 advantage, only for Tevez to strike twice more before rapper Big Zuu scored the winner for the visitors. Tevez may have scored four and owned the second half but it was Ginge who was named player of the match for his tireless defensive work. Twenty minutes into the game, he produced a stunning goal-line clearance, David Trezeguet thought he'd levelled the score - following an opening goal from Rooney - after lifting the ball over Joe Hart. However, internet star 'Ginge' - real name Morgan Burtwhistle - came to the rescue as he dived across the goal and poked the ball away from goal. Burtwhistle immediately rose to his feet and pumped his fists in the air towards the crowd at Old Trafford.

Carlos Tevez labelled a t**t by YouTuber left with Soccer Aid injury
Carlos Tevez was happy to wind up the Manchester crowd during Soccer Aid and he did the same to Angry Ginge, who called the Argentinian a 't**t' on social media after the game. The annual charity game was played at Old Trafford on Sunday with a star-studded line-up, but it was Tevez's studs that left an impression on the YouTuber. The former Manchester United and Manchester City striker scored four goals in a 5-4 win for the Rest of the World side over England. The 41-year-old was getting roundly booed at Old Trafford thanks to ditching the Red Devils for City during his playing days. Angry Ginge looked to delight the locals by putting in a heavy challenge on the forward, which he succeeded in doing, but was left with a painful injury himself. Showing off his war wound on Instagram after the match, the YouTuber captioned it: 'Cheers Tevez. Twat.' Tevez's team ended up winning the match but Angry Ginge managed to win Player of the Match for his performance for England. His goalline clearance after Rivaldo lobbed Joe Hart was the highlight of an impressive defensive performance from the streamer. Speaking on Instagram, he said: 'We might not have won, but Man of the Match at Soccer Aid. Mental! It's a Sunday but the postman still delivered, baby!' England had been firmly in control of the game thanks to goals from Wayne Rooney, Toni Duggan and Jermain Defoe putting them 3-0 ahead. Tevez scored twice but then Defoe put England back in command at 4-2 before two more quick goals from the Argentinian. More Trending The game was beautifully poised at 4-4 late on before Big Zuu netted an 84th minute winner past Paddy McGuinness. The rapper posted on X after the amazing moment: 'Never thought I'd be on a scoresheet with Wayne Rooney, Toni Duggan, Jermain Defoe & Carlos Tevez.' He added: 'Liverpool fan scoring the winner at Old Trafford is one I can tell my grandchildren about!!! Also I did the Ronaldo celebration because if you listen closely they are actually saying ZUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUI.' The event raised around £15m for UNICEF.
