| Quote Cripesginger="Cripesginger"Oh dear little man. You are one of the knuckle dragging wakey fans who have dedicated a dozen or so posts to bellyaching about me on a thread where I have not even posted.
My posts seem to irritate the dimmer of the wakey mob. Ho hum.
If something bores me I do not write paragraphs about it
The conditioner came to the end of his contract, his agent offered him around and the Giants signed him. Welcome to the real world.When you say we 'knicked' your conditioner you appear foolish.
Tommy Lee has done a decent job for us. But Brown and Anderson are very capable coaches.
Instead of blowing hot air tell me what I got wrong about Agar. With the riches of Hull he took them backwards. Feel free to prove otherwise The evidence on his player recruitment and development of young players is at best mediocre.
Where is the evidence that Agar can get 18 new players to gel? If he can't you are stuck with many ill fitting players for a couple of years.
If there is evidence that agar can coach please provide it.'"
I'll humour you. The point I was making is you only appear to see fit to point out how bad a coach agar is now he is at
Wakefield (whom for some reason you seem to detest above all other clubs and for no apparent reason). If you have previously said how bad he is, then please feel free to provide some proof of such posts and I will gladly apologise.
You are kidding if you think we have a poorer youth set up then Hull, far from it. Our youth set up is highly commended by the RFL and held out as an example to other clubs. The new club lottery 1873 is purely set up to increase funding to the youth development programme in place, and so we are only going to get better in that regard.
As for proof of him being a good coach, I will reserve judgement until a bit later in the season when he has had more time with what is a totally new squad, but the initial signs appear to state we are heading in the rght direction in terms of competing and wins should follow.
I have no evidence to say he can get the side to gel, but you have none at this early stage to say he can't. Other than the obvious lack of a top class goalkicker, and the potential argument we could do with a big prop, the rest of the squad appears to be well rounded. A couple of additions for next season and I reckon we will be competing for the top 8 in 2013.

| Quote TrinityIHC="TrinityIHC"Luckily for us youth development is part of the franchise criteria.

You won't be able to poach everyone else's when Uncle Ken is gone.'"
What many supporters of other clubs fail to realise about our u20 side-is that the giants do actually play youngsters in that side and with the exception of the odd player ie tonks getting up to match fitness following a foot injury we don't play "squad" players like many other sides do. In fact many of the players who play in the u20s have actually been stepped up from the academy. Considering those kids only left school one or two years ago and are playing against men I think that the future bodes very well for the giants re youngsters.

[You are clearly hard of thinking. Have a look at the thread title. It is about Giants versus wakey. The clue is there for you. I am not going to write about the Hull coach on such a thread. For some bizarre reason Wakey gave this failed coach a nice long contract. Admit it Agar's record at Hull was abysmal so why take him on at wakey. I think Glover was ill advised
You are kidding if you think we have a poorer youth set up then Hull, far from it. Our youth set up is highly commended by the RFL and held out as an example to other clubs.
[Not kidding at all. I care even less what the RFL say after some dreary tick box activity. Development is about bringing players through to SL level. Your own coaches have so little faith in your youngsters that you have signed 9/10 overseas players + plenty of older uk players rather than rely on your youngsters..no faith in them at all
The new club lottery 1873 is purely set up to increase funding to the youth development programme in place, and so we are only going to get better in that regard.
[Good stuff
As for proof of him being a good coach, I will reserve judgement until a bit later in the season when he has had more time with what is a totally new squad, but the initial signs appear to state we are heading in the rght direction in terms of competing and wins should follow.
[So you cannot look at his Hull results with any objectivity?
I have no evidence to say he can get the side to gel, but you have none at this early stage to say he can't.
[Don't I? You obviously know little about the Hull era

| I thought this was match talk, unfortunately it's fallen into farce from both sides. As i work with giants fans and live closer to huddersfield than Wakefield I think its better that I discuss it there, and as for that cripesginger thing you really do need to get a life, both clubs have an illustrious past but no recent trophies and you do nothing to aid YORKSHIRE RUGBY LEAGUE so please refrain from your vitriol.

I have made rugby points and your fellow supporters have nothing of substance to say.Your post is equally void of rugby content.
Please do set your latest post to music - violins maybe.  The effect will be very moving. It really will.

| Getting back to the thread title, advance tickets for Sunday are £15 which is likely to be the best away price that you will find all season and its only a few miles up the road.
So if you can manage to stand up for an hour and a half, get yourselves to Belle View and show what a BIG club's away support is like.

Back so soon. I was missing you.
no rugby league content...yet again. Oh dear. What a surprise.
Do you think Cockayne and Smith will mange a trouble free season. Will Smith manage to even look interested in more than half his game? Will John show he is even SL standard? And Collis, will he ever learn how to position himself defensively? Its not that he misses tackles, sometimes he is so far away he cannot even attempt a tackle.
