True, haven't the board paid the debts of with whatever profit we made? Now there gone it will be interesting to see what we do with the extra cash.

I'd agree with you that throwing silly money at a coach would be a foolish thing to do, particularly if it was going to land us in hot water financially. I reckon we must have a fair degree of leeway however, given our current relatively healthy financial position.

I've heard that Kath is building a Scrooge McDuck style money bath and that her and Rule will be taking regular skinny dips.

| To be fair to Agar he has more than earned his contract extension this season. I was completely against the decision being made so early in the season but if the decision was being made about now (as it should have been) I dont think most people would argue against a contract extension based on the current league standings.
He has done enough for me to get another crack at it next season and with further recruitment I would hope we progress again. One thing to consider though is that next season it wont be so easy to improve on this seasons showing so Agar will have his work cut out.

well said Sheldon, and he has done what he said he would do.
He has brought in the right people, and taken us from wooden spooners almost to 4th in the table with 5 games to go in one season, now excuse me but that to me is a serious step in the right direction!!
you know there are some Sheldon that would complain about something if we won the whole trophy availability !!

The quote Jedi returns!!!
Decent is a figure of speach, I shall make sure that i quote correctly when I see you are on sir!!

| Part of mrs happy he got another two years.
If he'd have only signed one year then we'd be in that very odd situation of trying to sign players, and well need major recruitment for 2012, without having a coach in place.

Good post. I didn't agree either with the early extension but it has now been earned. We have come a long way from the despair of the last two seasons due in the main to having better players in the first team squad. This season has been the best we could have hoped for bearing in mind where we were coming from. Hope there is some further team strengthening as we clearly still need it in certain areas, notably in the backs now. The decision to strengthen the forwards first within the confines of the cap and existing contracts has been totally vindicated.

| Whilst we were busy finishing bottom in 2009 , Wire nipped in and grabbed Tony Smith as they were under achieving at Wire. Imagine if we'd signed him , another WORLD CLASS COACH , not 'decent' , which is still debatable.
