Mardle reacts to Anderson frustrations after table-gate: 'It's just a poor excuse from Gary'
PDC
Wayne Mardle believes that Gary Anderson is not in a good space after his frustrations following his victory over Mensur Suljovic.
Anderson was visibly annoyed during the game seemingly at Suljovic's pace but spoke about 'The Gentle' going to the wrong table to start the game.
Mardle believed this was a deflection tactic from 'The Flying Scotsman' and that his main issue was to do with the pace.
"If you want to give him a game or just annoy him. He's got Jason Lowe or Devon Petersen, whoever wins just go to the wrong table, joke and keep going to the wrong table. If his mind's going to go that quickly, he's clearly not in a good space," said Mardle following Anderson's interview being aired on Sky Sports.
"He's clearly not concentrating on the game. Normally that wouldn't bother him, I feel sure about that. What bothered him was the pace of Mensur, I think it was just a bit of I'll deflect that."
"There's three breaks, why not ask during the game for the tables to be changed, replaced. It's just a poor excuse from Gary."
Mardle is probably the most overrated darts player in the history of the game and as a commentator is thoroughly obnoxious. Personally, I think he ruins the coverage and drags the other commentators down to his level of drivel.

- The Premier League isn’t a meritocracy as it’s not the top 8 players in the rankings, either at the start of the league or now. Dobey currently 9, Price 12. Aside from the top four Sky get picks, thats not meritocracy.Mysstree07-04-2025

- I agree. There needs to be a points system and preferably just a rolling one year. World Championship should earn the most points though it can be argued that the current qualification system does see a fair few players qualify from regional country qualifiers who would struggle to hold down a place on the Pro Tour. If prize money won is going to remain as the determining factor for ranking then the World Championship should just consist of the 128 Tour Card Holders. Another option would be to take the World Championship out of the rankings and have it as the stand alone pinnacle that you qualify for by winning certain tournaments or your ranking position, sort of like a GSOD+.Mysstree05-04-2025
- The Premier league has literally become a pantomime with a hero and villain, all thats needed is an older dart player in drag to play the joke old woman / queen and a younger woman to play the male hero. Barry is probably working on it now.Mysstree04-04-2025

- The next prodigy (prodigies) are just round the corner. Wonder if it gets to the stage of 180 after 180 being hit leg after leg whether there will be a modification to the equipment such as reduced doubles and trebles, reduce the size of the board or length of the oche?Mysstree25-03-2025
