No, I don't think they should 'take them seriously'. At least not individual posts. I do think they shouldn't be seen to be openly laughing at them, because, well, it's just not necessary.

I also think that the message board can give a sense of the general feeling amongst fans. Many of the people on here [ido[/i spout bollox, but if you sift all of that out, it's possible to gauge the dissatisfaction with our performances and respond more positively than a chuckle.

And I'm sure some do that as well as posting on here.

You could be right, I suppose.

Forgive me if i'm wrong but the club have given the fans a platform to do this.

My point is i believe the club should take anything written on here with a pinch of salt. it should be in person.

Didnt seem like he was laughing at the fans to defend Agar. Seemed more laugh in the spirit of the evening and acknowledging that he isnt the most popular person at the minute.

Like I said, I don't think they should absorb, consider and respond to every post, but I do think that the board is useful for gauging the general mood amongst the fans and shouldn't be dismissed so lightly.

Fair enough.

actually a tiny part of the faithful, and not everyone is in the grumpy club like you
jeez you even use Mr burns as your piccie for gods sake

You are Rule

Must admit I thought he said "I don't read it", could be wrong though.

Fair enough although I personally don't think it is a good way to gauge the mood of the fans.
Take the current situation most on here want agar out but of all the people i've spoken to friend/work etc hardly any blame agar and blame the players and are happy to be 4th with 6 games to go.

Like any good leader he will gauge all aspects of the commentary available to read be it HDM , this site or elsewhere but on ocassions he does...
for 20 quid i will give you his username too

well said, but as these forums go folk who hide behind pictures of mr burns and so on and so forth can vent their macho alter egos to the max with no real come back on them hence the posts become ludicrous and unhinged in their manner at times which is clear for all to see.
However the reality is that most folk I have had the pleasure of speaking to belive that the players are at fault in situations such as the last match and most believe we have the right coach who has placed us in our best position for three years almost !! and next year we will build again

You don't need a username to view the forum

He said that he doesn't read it

the players have to shoulder some of the blame i agree, but most lies with agar

Celtic away, players were flat during the week its his job to make sure they are up for it

Wigan away, top of the table clash we was played off the park lucky to be so close

Salford away, another poor show

Quins Murrayfield,shocking dispaly against an average struggling side

Leeds away, there for the taking destroyed by senior and hall down that flank, why wasn't yeamo swapped to defend down that side

Leeds Challenge Cup,played off the park couldn't halt leeds offloads

Huddersfield away,18-0 up couldn't close the game out should never have lost from that lead

Bradford away,let big lead slip once again very lucky to hang on

Wakefield away, just dire awful back to basic rugby

Theres a pattern there we struggle to get up for games away from home, we shouldn't do most games are like home games with the following we take, buck stops with the coach

good post!

Hang on he's also the one responsible for our worst two positions for well over a decade!!!

We should be grateful we get these forums, it's a chance for people to ask questions and they seem in the main to get answered. Some people will never like what Agar says and how he says it so no matter what answers he gives people will always pull it apart. The point is he seemed to answer most questions and never tried to avoid any difficult questions.

I think he has done a decent job this season. Whether he take us further next season remains to be seen but he does deserve some credit for his recruitment and our current league position.

you do to use it tho'

Don't be so harsh on yourself

I don't count myself as one of the negative posters on here (although I still hide behind a picture of O'Meley) but there is no point in getting too involved. If you take a step back and stop trying to answer all of their posts (let's face it you can't make everyone agree with you) you might start to enjoy some of the inevitable banter that the yin and yang posts invoke. I would humbly suggest that you count to 10 before responding and chillax man

it'll make your stay on here much more pleasurable.

Your POV is backed by record season ticket and merchandising sales.

I'd disagree that 'most' on here want Agar out - I think there's a fairly even split between those who definitely want him out and those who are yet to be convinced but are prepared to give him time. Oh, and, then there's EXPRO.



I think of all the people I speak to, most don't [iblame[/i Agar as such, but they don't like the style of rugby we currently play and think he's not the man to take us to the top.

To an extent. But then, I know many people (myself included) who buy a season ticket and merchandise regardless of what else happens.

For example, do you think the fans (overall) were happy after the last two seasons? I don't. And yet they still purchase tickets and shirts.
