Fair point which is why I was wondering what happened to Brian Noble when, during a game last season, he was physically on the touchline remonstrating with officials openly in front of everyone in the stadium ? Surely the RL are not operating an inconsistent approach to their respect campaign for the good reasons you mention ?

Are they ?

I hope you don't go home to find a fork in the spoon drawer, it could push you over the edge!

Actually Agar alludes to this happening during his media interview (available on the FC website) and James Webster make reference to disparity between official reports and informal discussions with the ref post match in a piece also on the website.

Edited to reflect reality.

HTH.

I know i thought that. Pathetic.

Do Hull FC have a medical team? If so what were they doing allowing their star player to stay on the pitch if he was concussed?

hull and agar will be punished enough anyway when the refs close ranks on hull fc for daring to have the audacity to critisize one of their own. although agar was correct in what he said, his hot headed outburst will cost us points in future games when childs colleagues give us fewer 50/50 calls(if any).
personally i would consider it a breach of my rights of freedom of speech.

Get real daft lad.

And as for your right to freedom of speech, you have the right, you also have to accept any consequences that exercising that right may bring.

So if a colleague at work makes mistakes/wrong decisions you believe people in positions of responsibility can start ranting that they are a disgrace etc to the full workforce because every-one has a right to freedom of speech ?

This is not about freedom of speech, this is about respect and dignity and following procedures, Agar never afforded Childs any respect and dignity, and he will now face the consequences.
What has amused me about all this is how most of the FC fans enjoyed posting dummies ect on here when Morgan had a hissy fit, yet it appears Agar was in the right

After all the comments regarding his performance at the KC, I'll bet he has a guilty conscience and the Wigan game tomorrow will have the fewest stoppages in the history of rugby league. (if only).

The law really is an

If only the match officials had allowed them to enter the field of play to assess the situation.

"get real" in what sense.in my experience an attack on an individual of any group or faction usually results in the said group or faction closing ranks,regardless of any official punishment given out
as for freedom of speech, to my knowledge as long as it isnt unduly offensive to anyone i fail to see why you should be punished.
as for the daft lad comment, i suggest you substitute the cod in your name to the old fashioned short version of richard

Either way, most ppl will agree Agar should have kept quiet, followed the procedure and made his complaint privately, instead of shooting his mouth off.

All he has accomplished is bringing bad publicity to Hull FC, and leaving them wide open for fines etc. Doesnt matter if everybody in rugby league thinks Childs had a poor game, what Agar has done will just make the other refs want to stand together to show they cant be bullied into things just because someone rants in a TV interview.
