Just as a matter of interest, are there [iany[/i conditions under which you believe that it's acceptable to criticise the club? For instance, did you happily cheer Lloyd and Walsh?

Firstly - someone send me a PM i'm feeling left out.

Secondly - WTF? I was sure this must be a joke but apparently not. The ONLY reason I can imagine this was done was in order to secure a couple of high profile retentions and possibly recruitment.

May I have this pm also?

Well have to say I am really disappointed by the this news as Agar for me has still yet to prove he is capable of being the head coach at Hull FC. This decision has been made far too early and if I'm honest shouldn't have been made til at least the 2nd half of the season.
Yet again we are left with Agar (who maybe a nice guy and all that) who so far in his tenure as head coach has been sadly lacking. The fact that the bad habits of the last 2 seasons have now started to appear in HIS team are a concern but obviously not to the board who just expect the Hull fans to pay no matter what.

What defines a decent coach though Paul? As with regards to our current one, I'm not sure with what I've seen of him in the 3 seasons he's been in charge if his so called coaching ability is as good as that.

I dont get the retentions bit and like i said earlier in the thread i think, theres probably only Fitz who could be classed as that with Manu second.

Can just imagine Rule in negotiations with these saying, well Agar might go but we are talking to an unkown ozzie coach called Bennett or something like that, not really heard of him

no national media are carrying the story

It doesn't involve Saints/Wigan/Wire or Leeds though.

Fitz and Manu are the 2 I was thinking of but I reckon Manu would sign regardless and as much as I like Fitz having a top class coach next season would have more impact than keeping Fitz for another year if he chose to leave on the back of it. If we don't have a couple of exciting signings in the pipeline I can see a drop in enthusiasm levels of the fans. I really don't get the timing of the this either, if 8 games isn't enough to say we still have some of the problems of the last 2 seasons then how is it long enough to offer somone a 2 year contract?

I'm so hoping its a joke!!! and at lunch today its just another AF!!!

Regarding fans' enthusiasm I would have thought the performance over the next 19 rounds would be the biggest determinant of that. I expect one or two quality players to come in for next season though.

This is the most depressing news in a long time.

I honestly cant believe it! lol

I dont see how having Agar as the coach means we are going to retain the likes of Manu, Fitz or anyone to be honest if the performances dont improve and we dont look like winning anything or even close to winning. Players want to play to win things and I honestly can't see we are capable of that under Agar.
Infact if Agar continues with what looks like an inability to have a back up plan for when plan A fails then we have more chance of losing our top players to teams with above average Coaches.

Poor decision all round from the board no matter how they dress it up or how we as fans look at it.

Least we give you lot something to smile about!!

They probs think its an april fools as hull would not be that stupid......oh hang on..

And plenty more derby victories over the coming years

"And we had hoped to have been bringing you Arthur the Human Chameleon, but this afternoon, he crawled across a tartan rug and died of exhaustion."

"West Mersea police announced tonight that they wish to interview a man wearing high heels and frilly knickers, but the Chief Constable said they must wear their normal uniforms."

"The search for the man who terrorizes nudist camps with a bacon slicer goes on. Inspector Lemuel Jones had a tip-off this morning, but hopes to be back on duty tomorrow."

We've re-signed Tommy Lee and Graeme Horne in place of Berrigan and Fitzgibbon. They'll give us the long term stability we need.

Unbelievable, what is the board smoking ? They get everything else right except the coach.

Why can't they wait ? It not like he is going to sign elsewhere, at least see what the weekend fixtures bring.

The fact that Rovers fans think this is great just about says it all.

I thought it was Paul King, swings and roundabouts i suppose.
