Not a lot we can do now...will always be behind the team but not Agar.......Looks as though Hull FC are putting profit before success.......another 2 1/2 years of mediocraty for us....will be intresting to see pass sales next year.

Thats why you got the Bullet Agar...Adam Pearson wants winners...not useless gits like you.

The similarities to last season are alarming as it seems yet again we have been 'found out' by oppositions due to the way we play to the same structures week in week out and never deviate from it. In tomorrows game all we will keep seeing in Rovers 20 is a left shift with Long having to option of hitting Manu/Hame flat or go back door to Tansey on a wedge. I'll be stunned if we dont see that structure at least 8 times in the game on tackle 3.
In English please.

Cant be ar$ed to read 24 pages but surely this will mean bye bye Craig Hall...the way Agar treats him will see Hall go and come back and bite us on the ar$e.

I'ts very worrying for me,we don't seem to have improved in the basic's of the game,line speed in defence is still very slow,fighting for the floor (do we actually do this),attack wise,apart from St helens,looks very similair to last year,were are the dummy runners, people pushing through to give our attacking player options and if we make a break,were are the supporting players,all these are basics and if you look at Wigan & Huddersfield,they do these at twice the speed we do them,is there personal on paper, any better than our's?,or are there coaches better?,for us to start winning Grand Finals we need to start at the top and bring in a World Class coach,if that means paying a top class salary at the detriment of a slightly inferior playing personal,I'll accept that,for the long term benefits.
I'm not having a go at Agar as a person,he comes across as man who loves the game is very Knowledgeable about it,he maybe is just better as an assistant.
I'm so stunned by this decision it's taken me all day to even mention it. I am truly amazed by this, the timing of it makes no sense whatsoever. We haven't exactly set the league on fire, in fact our last few performances have hinted that we are still as average as we've been for the past couple of seasons. The only thing I can imagine is that the board must have got the idea that he was in line for the England job and have been panicked into realising that they might have to go and spend some serious money on a top coach.

Your right in that we play to exactly the same "gameplan" and structure regardless of who we are playing. We never seem to target the opposition in highlighted weak areas and prefer the "concentrate on ourselves" attitude. Well I'm afraid the top coaches look for any edge they can get, so far the only "edge" Agar seems capable of is the bollox mind games about players injuries which doesn't work anyway.
I'm not sure this squad is in the top 4 of the league currently and it would take a special coach to get us to finish in the top 4. With Agar in charge I would expect top 8 and top 6 would be a good return for the standard of coach we have in charge.

Well i for one wont admit we are stuck with him. I have a little faith our board were not stupid enough not to put specific targets into the contract. Another poor season this season and regardless of the new 2 year deal he will be gone.
