| Quote ="Uncle Junior"icon_surprised.gif Don't me wrong, Kath and the board have got a lot to answer for with regard to letting Agar stay on this long and even for appointing such a buffoon in the first place. I'm just saying that they run the club as a profitable business and have made substantial loans to the club and take money out of the club to repay those accordingly. Therefore anyone who wished to buy them out would not only have to make them a satisfactory offer for their shareholding but also pay off the loans. The only type of person who would be willing to take such a financial hit would be a wealthy fan who's in it for pleasure like Wire have with Moran.'"
A little wrong. The owe the shareholders nowt. The loans have been repaid

Im willing to stake money on it, yes we may lose a few hundred, maybe upto a thousand but the people will not risk losing there seats, or risk having to pay 100.00 more if they go to every game etc etc

I keep saying this on the various threads about how p!ssed off fans are cos we aren't top of the league....BUT.....LOOK UP THE WORD 'SUPPORTER' in a dictionary....If you class yourself as a Hull FC 'SUPPORTER'.....Then prove it. SUPPORT THE HAND THAT WE ALL HAVE BEEN DEALT (including Rich Agar)....Cos that is what and who we are (this season). Then try to put yourself in the shoes of a Widnes or Featherston supporter and immagin what it would be like looking up and yearning for what we have !
I can see this season getting back on track......and SOON

Nobody has to prove anything, especially to you.
Does it really matter if people have or don’t have a problem with Agar? Does one opinion over the other make them more or a better supporter?
Nah thought not.

Being in the play off places halfway through the season counts for diddley-squat, as last season should have taught you.

But as with all professional sports we all have no idea where we will end up have we?? its like saying i wont buy a lottery ticket this week because i know I wont win , however the reality is that you dont know!!
as you correctly say it counts for little at present however we ARE still there mid tabled ish with a whole host of players to come back over the next three weeks or so all ready for a big push on and up in time for the playoffs ... when it DOES count for diddly squat .
remember we have nearly an international team sat injured.. no team can perform under that cloud

We can, however, make a pretty good estimate based on current performances and what happened last season in an almost identical situation.

Some of our injuries are reported as longer term than that, and our performances were hardly stellar even before we crocked 60% of the salary cap.

They can, however, perform a damned sight better than they have been. Demonstrating some competence with the basic skills of RL would be a start.

That for me is the biggest problem of all the fact we cannot perform even the basic stuff correct.

Its not the results what people have a problem with, or the league position, its the fact that we are by far the most boring and negative team in the competition, we have no back up plan other then 5 drives and a kick apart from the predictable use of Tansey as an extra pivot on the 4th tackle, and more importantly we are making no progress in terms of performances over the past two dreadful seasons, and as if that dosnt put us at a disadvantage enough, the coach makes things worse by not always picking the best players available (Moa the best example of this), questionable interchanges and probabally the biggest evidence to suggest that Agar really dosnt have a clue is his own admission that we dont really study the opposition or change our gameplan to target certain weaknesses, and our game plan generally consists of "If you see it, call it".

| This is the worst FC teams in terms of entertainment value I can recall seeing.
There constant on field failings are excused by a coach who blames everybody and everything, the injuries are crucial of course. I can not see another SL team suffer three back to back bad injury years like we have.
Its upto to everyone to decide what they do, I of course do not have a choice other then watch odd matches and aways when I can. Things in this country are going to get a lot worse in the coming years and money will become very tight, people will have to make hard choices. Can you expect to pay out a £200+ a year each to continue watching what is served up as entertainment or do you pick and choose ?
Many will opt to pick and choose simply because they will have little choice

| Firstly the subject, scarves. My opinion is this is a non starter. Don't think the board would blink an eyelid. I do support the idea of the A4 "agar out" way of thinking especially at televised games. Maybe if we could somehow get the message over to The board and get more fans backing that season passes, merchandise ( I.e. shirts etc ) will be boycotted until Agar is removed or walks, then we shall plow our hard earned money back where we always do- the club we love.
On a seperate note as injuries has reared its head again, does anyone else think that maybe it is ' agars ' fault to a certain extent. Giving the fact its his boring tactics of 5 and a bad kick that our players are taking constant 2/3 man heavy hits all game that may be a cause for it.. he obviously can't " coach " them to pass and move so stick to wot he knows, although does that badly!!. Maybe he should watch the aussies games on sky for some ideas.. I am obviously not an Agar fan and to be honest I never will be. He has had a go and he surely has proven he doesn't have the vision or what it takes to motivate good players. Like I say this is MY opinion.

It could be a purple scarf? The purple, like Man Utd's green & gold, being a reminder of an early 90's kit.
Thing is, our board aren't the problem, it's the coaching staff.'"
The green and gold are the colours of Newton Heath, who later became Manchester United, it's just coincidence that they were the colours of a 90s away kit.

An international team? Is that a literal statement in that the players were born in more than one country? You can't be saying that we have a team of international quality , can you? A team that could live with the Aussies? Some of our "Internationals" may once have played at that level but don't anymore or may aspire to do that in the future ( Briscoe) but not yet. We have one current International class player in Manu. I get sick of these terms that are trotted out by the media , stars and internationals. Professional players being well paid and for the most part underperforming under a poor coaching set up is what we have. I also think that the overall standard of Superleague has gone backwards over the last two or three seasons which perhaps also disguises our decline somewhat during that same period.
