Whether people like Martin Ling or not, credit must be given where due. In the Club statement about Head Coach Search he has made a determined effort to overtake Peter Eustace in the metaphor charts.
He refers to turbulent waters, Ross being the man at the helm steering the ship through turbulent, turbulent times and getting the trawler net out to search for his replacement.

All hands to the pump.

Up the creek without a paddle
