I possibly did not come across as I wanted to(failed english O-level many many years ago). The situation we are now in does not have an instant fix - so the people who want Agar should def make their feelings known but they should not instantly think they are being ignored if Agar is not booted out on Monday. However we are now deep into this season and a long term solution is not likely to be found until the off-season. So I believe Agar will be given as long as possible,[u:1bwpmlo2 whilst other avenues are being investigated[/u
the only avenue for agar at the moment is albert avenue

| Quote ="Dalek"I think a touch of reality is needed. The board of Hull fc number 1 priority in life is to keep the fans happy. This will ensure their salaries are paid and insure their investment. So they will know they have a difficult situation. Twice previously the have succumbed to the baying mobs and sacked a coach and still the mob is not happy. Dont forget there was a big call on here for Agar to be given a chance when Peter Sharp was in charge.
They are very unlikely to let the lunatics run the assylum again in a hurry. However they do have a problem - butt the solutionis not easy. Even though they have given Agar a contract extension i believe there will be a get out performance contract, so parting will not be out of the question. But Agar, I believe will be given every chance even if it means writing this season off.
It is not an easy job finding a coach who is the fans "cup of tea" - currently in Super league Cas, Saints, Bradford fans are unhappy with their coachers plus catalan and Quins coaches are under pressure.
I am not an Agar fan - I was happy with peter Sharp - but we are in a difficult situation and I think people need to be a little more patient'"
I agree that the fans were maybe a bit hasty in pushing for Sharp to be sacked, but I don't recall massive calls for Agar to be given the job.
a lot of people were willing to give him a chance in temporary charge, but the decision to give him the job after 1 temporary defeat in charge was a surprise, and most weren't happy with it if I recall.
and I don't think we need to be more patient, he's been in charge 2 years now, which is a long time in sport.

| Quote ="Mr. Zucchini Head"1. We won't lose on Friday.
2. Even if we did I wouldn't sit in and protest if you paid me. Some of our performances have been pathetic, but not as pathetic as some of the posters on here.
We have been beaten by 2 of the best 3 teams in the comp, I expected to lose and we did. Salford and Crusaders were blips in my opinion and we are still quite easily a top 6 team. It will have to get way worse than this for me to join in with any silly protests or write poorly written letters to James Rule.'"
Wont lose on Friday how can you say that
You can see the future can you?
You insult people but then come out with some utter cr@p yourself
I guess we won Salford and Crusaders as well did we?
I think Hull have a good chance of winning but im not stupid enough to claim we wont get beat I will leave that to you.!!!!!

The fact that this thread is still open is testament to my sense of humour.
An endless source of chuckles.

Not sure if you were being sarcastic but it certainly hasn't worked for Man U fans whatever they'd like to believe, the Glazers couldn't care less and were even seen laughing at the banners and Norwich scarves at one match.

Since they purchased the club for £200m and are only willing to sell for £800m I'd suggest they are laughing pretty hard.

How much profit have they made and how much debt will they pay off out of £800m?

The Glazers have a production line of braindead idiots ready to take the place of any Manchester United supporter with there club at heart who is willing to boycott to make a change, and are willing to pay over the odds to do so, as much as they would love this to be the case our board would have no choice but to listen to the hardcore support, or they would simply not make any money.
Not that the two situations are comparable though anyway, I think our board are cutting corners especially with the coaching staff and maybe playing staff, but off the field the club is run very well and we are definetely not being screwed anything like the situation at Manchester United.

Regardless of weather they sell for 800 million or not, I supsect Hicks and Gillett will walk away with a tidy profit without investing a single penny of there own money into the club, but like I said regarding Manchester United the two are not comparable, Liverpool and United have massive revenues from other markets rather then just season ticket holders and matchday tickets, Hull FC do not.

Indeed, they've even been quoted as saying if they sell it'll be the most profitable deal they've ever done. It's not even true to say Liverpool supporters have forced them out, they'd have sold for that price they day after they bought the club if someone had offered them it. As you say though the two situations aren't comparable, if FC fans decide to stay away there aren't people from around the world queing up to take their places so it would really hit the club in the pocket and force them to stop insulting us with their pathetic choice of coach. Staying away is far more effective than any kind of half-d protest involving at best a few hundred fans. I made the decision to not attend any more home games the day Agar got his new contract.
