The guy is a prize prat, he basically said "you pay your money, but you can't have an opinions, in case the niceywycey ickle players get a bit fed up", what he should have said is "the fans are telling the team so cold, hard facts, if they don't start listening then we could all be down the job centre on Monday! but he wont, because he is a spinelss, clueless excuse for a coach.

No, what he should have said in public is nothing. Then tell the players in training that they need to win us back over by putting in the performances that HE knows they are capable of. And maybe add in that if they don't believe they are capable of what he wants, maybe they shouldn't be professional rugby league players.

I don't think it's helping, we've got a nervous team that's low on confidence and you can probably see it's not helping. It's there for all to see.
"We're frustrated, we're all frustrated and it's a tough time but there are reasons and very mitigating factors behind that. We are underperforming but it's at times like this we need the crowd's help more than ever."
Now you tell me would it "help" if your boss or workmates or customers booed you if you had a few bad days in the office?
I am the boss mate and most of the staff hate me because I make them turn up on time and do a hard day's graft. Plus I fire any that aren't up to it. You and they can boo me all you want, I don't give a feck. I do care what my customers think though and wouln't dream of criticising them in the national press

As I always tell anyone I work with, I am not here to be popular, I am here to get rid of the dead wood, make you all work harder and also make sure the rewards you deserve are forthcoming, if you don't like it, then shove off.
Agar is weak, you only need to look at him, he makes Gollum look dynamic and a go getter. If a man cannot take pride in himself, what else is left?

I do feel as though this has detracted from what was a poor performance in Friday, all anyone is doing is talking about this issue.....maybe that is what he wanted?
At times I'd love to criticise or make a 'comment' regarding my customers but as a professional i don't!
Bang on the money. Anything to deflect attention away from his abysmal coaching
