Alex Ferguson , Wenger . 2 managers the players have said they dreaded having to speak to when their performances wre below par. Do you think Long /Radford/Dowes/Horne et al are worried about Agar's reaction if they don't have a good game ? NO and that is the problem A poor performance is rewarded with reselection.
Just look at the team for this weekend - how many changes ??

There's a difference between fear and respect.

| I think we will win this week BUT it's a sticking plaster on a broken leg!! This board are still 100% behind Agar make no bones about that! it will take another 3-4 defeats (on the trot) to even make them think about getting him out. It's so annoying/frustrating, non so blind as those who cannot see eh?
In football it's ALWAYS the managers fault and they get sacked, maybe our board are taking a different view with it being rugby? It's a suicide mission allowing this coaching set-up to continue but unfortunately they will have to learn the hard way in the board room, I can see crowds going as low as 8,000 in the near future.

We won't be the next Bradford - they enjoyed a period of sustained success before going down the sh[ii[/itt[ie[/ir.

Correct.

How would he know?
He's seen the video and that means he saw what the cameraman filmed. Did the video show people leaving early? Did the sound pick up the chanting and booing? Did he get to see the players' body language? Did he see them running to form the scrum with 30 seconds to go when we were 8 points behind? Did he see the knock ons and breaks with no back up?
He only saw what the video allowed him to see. Someone who actually attended the game would have seen much much more and cannot claim to be happy after that.

i remember a certain peter walsh who,s squad use to train the house down everyweek but still couldn't win at weekends think he lasted 9 games in his last season before been given the boot, if thats the case then agars got 3 weeks,we have to suffer short term pain for a long term gain, and maybe hetherington and rule will be that disgruntled with us fans they,ll f**k off with the turnip as well

You should do some reading on motivational theory. Your staff may start to like you a whole lot more and less of them may leave

Rule would have got more fans back on side if he had been honest about how poor we were on Friday instead of trying to spin his and Agar's way out of it.
I implore the fans of this great club not to accept such mediocrity. We deserve so much better!
Regardless of the result against Quins vote with your feet next week v Cas. Its the only way Rule and co will get the message.'"
Agreed i don't think I will be attending home or away until something is done, apart from catalans as that Is paid for although we have all said we might just skip the match and stay at the hotel.

Sadly, I don't think it is. The way they're wheeling out players to back him and calling on the fans to show unity tells me they're some way off sacking him. To be honest, the more I think about it, the more insulted I feel by Rule's article. The fans have shown unity for long enough and we've continued pouring money into the club in spite of everything.
This board seem totally out of touch with the mood amongst the fans. Things could get a whole lot uglier before action is finally taken.

As I said before, if thousands of fans chanting 'Agar out' and booing doesn't get through, a few strongly worded emails won't either. You'll get the same cut and paste response as everyone gets before the admin assistant hits the delete button. Rule is unlikely to ever set eyes on it.
