Quote: Dave K. "I just can't see how Myler and some investment are t related. How would the conversation started, Pearson thinking we need a DOR, him thinking I know who would be perfect for the job, that ex Leeds fullback currently playing at York. If the job was advertised fair enough, but can't see where the connections between Pearson and Myler come from apart from the money man.'"
RL is a small world. I have no idea who Myler’s agent is but I wouldn’t be surprised if it is somebody Pearson has dealt with over the years. Maybe Jack Walker or Liam Sutcliffe mentioned in passing that Myler is very intelligent and a keen student of the game.
It’s a fair point about the balance between the head coach role and the DoR. It’ll be interesting to see what type of appointment Myler goes for as an indicator of how he sees his own role. Peacock-Webster was massively different to Sheens-Peacock, for example.
