But Chris the club knew a few week before Agar stepped down where this was potentially going. His press conferences told everyone there was a chance he was on the verge. Certainly the week between Hull and Salford games the whole club knew exactly what would happen if we lost.
Surely GH was sounding people out to see where the interest was? I suspect he didnt.
Between Agar officially going and Gary stepping on a plane it was 2 weeks thats fine and understandable. Why didnt he interview the "European" candidates in that time? I just dont understand it. Especially knowing the busy Easter schedule was fast approaching.
Its just appears symptomatic of the club at the minute. A lack of urgency on the pitch and just the same off it.
The issue with going to Australia, as I said at the time, the salary difference between NRL and SL now and GH's lack of modern day contacts. Hes getting old now, he cant go on forever. This to me is further evidence of it.
Surely he knew if there was genuine interest in the job from Australia before boarding? Surely he had discussed the details of the job before packing his budgie smugglers in his Louis Vuitton suitcase?
Lets not forget hes telling kids the club is so skint it cant afford to pay them and then jaunts off on what looks a whim and prayer, all expenses paid trip to Australia. Which looks a waste of time snd money.
To be going into Easter with JJB in charge is not ideal. But this is what Gary wanted, this is what he created by pushing people out of the door. Go on Gary you sort this mess out.
Most of that is speculation (I don’t know a lot about the kids situation)
The fact is this is an immensely important appointment it isn’t and never was going to happen within a few weeks.
You say his trip to Australia was a waste of time, what’s that based on? Surely he should explore all options before making an appointment, his job is far more important than satisfying some fans with a rushed appointment.
You nor I haven’t got a clue what’s gone on in Australia, who he’s interviewed and wether anyone was the right choice. Things like this take time and consideration, GH literally cannot win here with some fans.
