| cheap option again from hull, i would of let him see his contract out then i would brake the bank for stephen kearney, it shows what ambition the hull board really have and their ambitions dont match the fans, very disheartening.

and the other season and 2/3rds he's had as coach to show his coaching credentials never happened then?

On current form I woulden't be bothered to see Yeaman, Dowes, Radford, Cusack and Hall go. Calderwood also has to be a doubt due to his current injuries.

Wish I had a quid for every time that sentence or a variation on it has appeared on this forum over the last couple of years.
I expect to see it plenty more times in the future as well.

Tickle, Fitz, Manu, Hall and Houghton should be absolute priorities.
I'd also like to see Calderwood, Yeaman and Whiting kept but wouldn't be massively disappoined if they left.
Cusack will leave anyway and I'm not massively bothered about Dowes and Radders, although I would imagine at least one will stay because two good British props are hard to come by.

You can't build long term stability on short-term decisions. Going for broke by spending money on a coach may buy a season of good performances, but if it crashes after that you are back to square one. I'd rather build as a team like we are doing. At the end of the season, we'll be top 4 and thoughts like these will be gone. We are still recovering from a few seasons of poor form and the player confidence issues don't right themselves with a couple of wins. We'll be fine, Agar is good coach and we'll be top 4 at the end of the season.

| Its funny how the original poster has not put a single response up since breaking this story. How did he manage to find this if it is not on the main page of the site and if it was dated older why was he scrolling through the old news stories.
Too coincidental for me and I will wait till tomorrow to see if it actually breaks.

its very interesting that a previous thread by the OP was about the official site going down for maintenance.
[urlhttp://viewtopic.php?f=34&t=444708&p=14917811#p14917811[/url
maybe indicates he/she is in involved in the running/hosting of the site?

top 4!!!!! if losing to Crusaders and Salford are pointers to top 4, you must mean top of the 4 teams that will stand at the bottom of the league

Yes.
Wigan are far and above the best team in the league. Warrington, Saints and ourselves are pretty much on a par. Leeds have been shaky and have suffered with injuries. Huddersfield look good and will improve with Brough. Bradford aren't much to worry about. Top four looks a good target for me.

| If true then it's an extremely poor decision and it also seems very rushed. Unless they felt they had to act in order to keep him away from the England job.
Either way it all leaves me very underwhelmed and disappointed, it show a real lack of ambition.

Not optimism mate just like to state some facts for balance. I have doubts about Agar like most, but I do look at certain facts when trying to judge it.
