Mardle said that for him he wouldn’t mind being given the opportunity to express his views; so it isn’t something he has ruled out. He added that he thinks Peter Manley is great for the job; but doesn’t want him to be bullied and wants him to express his views.
"I would contemplate being the
PDPA Chairman," said Mardle to
Live Darts.
"I've expressed my views before that I wouldn't mind doing that.
"How time consuming that would be, I don't know, but I've not ruled it out yet.
"I think Peter Manley is great for the job, but I want him to put across what he wants to say, I don't want him to be bullied into saying things that maybe the
PDC want him to say.
"I think the PDPA have got to remain strong for the players and no one else.
"I think everyone's worried about keeping their status and I couldn't care less, if I was put in that position I'd love it.
"If I got sacked from that position a week later then I've tried for a week."
