Don't disagree ref the rotation. But I wouldn't be surprised if his stats reflect 50+ tackles and a lot of carries.

....and to think you paid a transfer fee for him



Don't worry though he'll take over Tanseys mantle as the clubs top pishhead over the coming weeks.

It is not an issue of faith. We know Agar is the coach of our club, so rambling on saying he isn't good enough won't change anything and it's very boring IMO. I would rather try and see where the TEAM went wrong and what POSITIVES were from the game, as they are more a interesting topic.

I am gutted and completely and utterly sick of Morgan out-thinking and out-playing us over the last 4-5 seasons. Rovers finished 7th last season and have their marquee signing still to arrive, yet after our initial flurry they were completely comfortable in the game and didn't have to do anything much to beat us easily and score 28 unanswered points. I'm sorry, but as one of the club's alleged "apologists", it's [uabsolutely not good enough[/u. We're going to get smashed by Leeds at the weekend then have to go to Huddersfield. I try and look for the positives, but, seriously, anyone feeling optimistic of challenging for anything after the last 67 minutes of that game needs their head examining. IMO.

Spot on, the coach is clueless. If we had the same set of players but had Morgan in charge and they had Agar we'd have given them a good hiding. It's one thing supporting the team but thinking everything in black and white is magic and cannot be questioned is daft.

Can we have 2 seperate threads? Positive and negative? Cos 2nights going to get boring very quickly, busy night for the mods, good luck far too many depressives for me roll on friday!

Didn't think Fitz played anywhere near his best today, but same can be said for a few of them - Rovers and Hull.

Yeah but you're profitable and have a grade a license

If you don't know by now you're as daft as Agar, we are gutless and clueless.

I am confident he will improve if we play him in his correct position, when that will be God only knows

Ah well. Guess that's what being a supporter brings with it. Good times and bad.

Its the constant lack of smartness that annoys me.

Its simple stuff and I am not sure how much of it you can blame on the coach. I think agar's tactics are boring at best but he can't be blamed for the players refusing to challenge for high balls, or forcing way too many passes. I also believe he doesn't coach them to make that many mistakes during a simple task like playing the ball.

The areas where I would challenge Agar is his recruitment, they were players out there to be signed look at Bradford who have brought in over 10 new faces. The lack of structure in the team, I don't think anyone really knows what they need to be doing when we have the ball. As soon as we lose momentum in a game we never manage to gain it back and when we do its usually far too late.


We won't be challenging ( we knew that anyway TBF) so it was nice to see a few of the younger members of the team have good games (Moa, Turner and Houghton). I believe we will be better then what we showed today but its still too far away from where a club like this deserves to be.

Thanks bud. Feel better now.

Excuse me pal, don't insult me by calling me daft because I am explaining my opinion of discussion.

Fair post.

Apologies, my rant was at a previous poster - sorry!

But they'll also include at least 2 sloppy penalties and probably a few missed tackles. I'd just sooner have him at full effectiveness for 40 minutes than 20 and a middling 60.

My pleasure

Brilliantly put mate. Very true, Pete.

Come on Tommy wake up !

Well put.

I know a few bradford fans through work. All are saying that since Potter came in, the way the teams plays has altered dramatically. The lines the players are running, mean that they can create and, look like they are worth watching. I know they lost today, but they look like a creative side that is going to kick on.
We have had the opportunity to try and play some rugby, to try and improve tactically, but we look the same old disheveled mess. I think that we should let Webster organise the attacking side of our gameplan, at least to shake things up. We are way too one dimensional. Bradford appoint Potter and they look a different proposition.

and lets be fair bradford havent got the star big name players we have but think braford will go alright with potter in charge and most probable another case of a coach getting the best out of his squad unlike us

Was impressed by Bradford in the first half and we were at that point saying how Bradford get rid of a poor British coach and get an Aussie in and step up immediately, while Leeds get rid of an NZ coach and bring in an average British coach and step down. I know the result didn't pan out like that, but think Bradford have the makings of something this year that they've not shown since Noble.

Wake up?
