Agree, both have been terrible this year!

Wakefields useless performances in relation to the mighty Hull FC
Finished a whole two places below super Hull FC in the league
2 tries all at the KC and only lost out on goal kicks to Gentle inspired Hull
beat GatesHull Thundersharks out of sight at Belle Vue

Useless!

Kear is the best coach we have had in decades at Wakefield. Every coach moves on at some stage. His departure was more to do with administration and chanegs at the club than him.

We 'have' beaten Leeds so that example doesn't match up either.

For me the measure of a coach is how he improves the players in his charge. Agar has done that at Wakefield. We are happy with him at Wakefield......don't see why the Hull fans have any reason to moan any more.

Hul two years ago got 32 points in the league with Agar as you have now. Last year you had two wins and a draw less.....hardly ground shaking improvemnt to go back to 32 points.

There are differences that only Hull fans will notice, points etc do not always tell the whole story as most people know. You only have to look at the shirt numbers at Hull to realise how much as changed during the course of this season alone.

As for improving players, has he really done that this year? He started with a new influx of players (not sure on how many) so it is hard to gauge whether he has improved players when you don't have previous seasons to compare to. Like I said before he has done well so far but the acid test is 2013.

The only people who can form a true opinion of Agar are the Wakefield fans, who get to see the team week in week out and not those of us who see the odd sky game and the games against our own team.

Surely, if the Wakey fans are happy with him that's all that matters. I wasn't sorry when he left us but I didn't have any personal issues with him. Good luck to the guy and to Wakey. The more strong Yorkshire teams the better for me.

I'm sure that Mr Gentle will do well at Hull but, this thread is titled "Richard Agar, well done" and from last season to this, his first in charge, nobody can doubt that he has done well.
Last season we won 7 games and finished 13th with 10 points (after a 4 point deduction).
This season we finished 8th with 13 wins with 26 points. Just eat humble pie like the rest of us and agree that he has done well.
Tomorrow is another day and we will all start again on 0 points next season.

Regardless of your club affiliation, it's clear that Richard Agar has done a good job at Wakefield this season, as has the new Chairman.

We came out of administration and one way or the other clung on in SL by the skin of our teeth. Since then, the club has achieved a top 8 finish, posted a 25% increase in attendances and has made significant progress towards a brand new stadium that will put us amongst the best provisioned clubs in SL.

We don't expect any flags or balloons just yet, but I would've though that anyone who had an interest in the wider fortunes of RL should be pleased about the fact that a historic club appears to be finally sorting itself out?

Nah, you're not iconic enough. We only care about Bradford.

Which is a fair point, but it was a Wakey fan who dragged Gentle into this thread.

Tbf, I think it was BoxerTom and i've not seen him posting on the Wakey board before and wasn't aware that he was a Trin fan, but you obviously know him

So you're saying that Gentle has doe a better job at Hull than Agar as at Wakey, is that right?

If you think Hull was in a mess, i'd hate to think of a word Trinity was in at the start of the year with 17 new faces and recovering from administration.

I was replying to a previous comment that brought Gentle into it. I don't have to eat humble pie, check my previous post in the thread.

Cos I havnt and cos I'm not
