| I'll be another one that won't be attending next season if Agar is still incharge. More often than not I'm bored watching the game in the stand, think I'll save my hard earned and put it to better use.
We're clueless in attack and sick to death watching Horney do a 'drop off' every set we have the ball. It's predictable at the pace we do it and have no second phase.
Our half backs never seem to link up either, which makes it easy to defend against as the opposition just have to close the half back down.

Hudds W2 L5
Hull KR W4 L6
Leeds W0 L9
Salford W5 L2
St Helens W2 D1 L5

Wigan W1 L6
plus Cup wins over Oldham and Widnes.
So the record against Wigan, Warrington, St Helens, Leeds and Huddersfield is W6 D1 L30.
Truly shocking.
[Edit, sorry had left Saints out'"
I knew his record was bad but that is disgraceful!

| Quote ="Mrs Barista"Let's say he's on 80k a year and his contract expires November 2012. That's over Ā£100k that he is contractually entitled to. It's the club's fault that we have this financial liability, not Agar's, due to the decision on April 1 2010 to extend his deal. Agar won't be top of anyone's list in SL for coach so he'd be mad to walk. He can and will cite mitigating factors like not having the full cap, board interference in recruitment, injury crises in 2008 and 2009, not having his first choice halves available in all his time at the club, refereeing decisions against Castleford, five day turnarounds, having to travel to Edinburgh for the Magic weekend, other teams being in good form, players not being smart enough, creating enough opportunities to win 5 games but failing to convert them and losing at home to Wakefield, hot weather, cold weather, wet weather...I could go on. He's never at fault, he took us to Wembley and there's Ā£100k on the table for just turning up for the next year and a bit with no realistic alternative employment for him at this level. Don't blame him for taking the money - we should never have put it on offer.'"
Perfectly reasonable and understandable justification there Mrs B. Doesn't change the fact though that Agar is a liar if he doesn't walk, something worth baring in mind when people trot out 'what a nice bloke he is' etc.

| I think the most disappointing thing is that very many people who I speak to about FC just say "not interested" now, when even the most ardant of fans are on here and Facebook on a game night (admittedly a Sky covered game) it tells you something, not to many seasons ago I would have finished work in London at 3pm on Friday, got a train to Brough, my other half would have finished work in Loughborough at 4pm and driven to meet me, we'd have rushed to get a quick drink with friends before getting into the KC, as it is next season, if the fool remains at the helm (or anywhere near it) I doubt I'll even renew Sky Sports.
I do, honestly, believe that Adam will remove Fubar, and the rest if his coaching staff, but I do worry what legacy Kath and Richard have left us with, Horne on a two year deal, a questionable "specialist" fullback, Radford on another year, whoever (fingers crossed) comes in as coach is playing a broken piano with one hand tied behind his back and a blindfold on.

Definitely not renewing though until he does.

| I think AP will relieve him of his duties after the season. And hopefully bring in a big name, eg Anderson, Meninga or AN Other!
We need someone with a steely mentality in Defence and something a bit 'different' in attack.

Thats where i'm at,the missus commented when Yeaman scored that i'm usually jumping up and down and wondered why i was just sat on the sofa,and my reply was that 'I'm not really bothered' at no point throughout the game did i get in the least bit excited. Never thought i'd hear myself saying it.

So when Agar said that he would walk if he did not do the business, I guess you called him a liar?

We're almost in the same place as you, with a chase on Friday evenings to make kick-off. I've done it gladly for years, but have zero confidence that going into a 5th season of Agar will provide anything different. Working our lives around the fixture list is simply not worth it. I'm a glass half full fan, but the excuses culture adopted by our coach and club PR machine just compound my frustration that we talk a great fight and deliver nothing. Pearson needs to deliver a new coach, and a very good one at that, to re-engage fans that have already drifted away and those on the brink.

Yup that's what it's like for me.
I actually wanted Leeds to beat us in a way last week due to the fact I am off to Leeds festival the CC final weekend. However even if we had got there I would still have gone to Leeds fest and missed the final and considering its a poor line up this year that speaks volume!

he (supposedly) said he would walk if he wasn't taking us forward, other than that he's not lied as far as I am aware.

I thought he had, but what is meant by taking us forward, is it purely league position? Is it squad wise? What is he judged on? You can't just call someone a liar.

I'd suggest its results/leage position (as that is his remit) which he has failed on, (arguing he's improved from the 1st 2 years is not going to hold water, it couldnt have got any worse than them).
Even if its not results/league position, I really can't think of anywhere else he's "taken us forward".

I'd agree an it being based on league position and results.
What we don't know is he going to off to walk away or has he already offered to do so?
