I dont'"
It's certainly a gamble, think most of us would agree on that!
Either Pearson (or someone else?) can see something obvious in Myler that the rest of us are missing, or it's another spin on the roulette wheel by a desperate gambler down to his last chips. To go direct from shop-floor worker straight up to the board-room doesn't tend to happen in most industries, but then professional sport (and especially Rugby League) don't tend to be run on similar lines as most other business sectors, hence the large turnover of staff and sudden, at times bewildering, changes in company direction.
I do wonder if Pearson has been casting around for the past few months for someone to fill this role, and everyone even vaguely half-decent he has spoken to won't touch us with the proverbial barge-pole due to the fact we have become such a basket-case of an organization? Like I said, does Myler represent a gambler's last throw, because from here it looks a bit like throwing the last ten pounds in your pocket on a 50-1 shot for the National!
Either way, if he's here, we have no choice but to back him (with our fingers crossed) and hope the gambler's punt strikes lucky for once!!
