I hope for your sake you don't end up with Kath Hetherington involved at some stage, having Fubar is bad enough!

You never know - the season's not over yet - might change a few opinions if he gets Hull to GF this year.

Agar was always up against it at Hull.

He inherited a squad in 2008 full of poor recruitment & rentention decisions from the previous two coaches, Kear & Sharp. He then faced a season and a half of a chronic injury crisis, together with no playmaker (Dykes was injured, Thorman was awful).

The past two years have been better. He brought in Long, Fitz, O'Meley, and established Houghton & Briscoe as first teamers.

This year, we had an awful start and one we've failed to recover from. Since then we're 11 wins from 16 I believe, although we've struggled against the top teams. We've posted a few 50+ scores and alot more tries than recent years and our brand of rugby is alot more exciting than it has been.

Unfortunately, Agar lost the respect and trust from the fans. Our attendances have gone down by 3k. He's also prone to some baffling rotation desicions and as has been said, doesn't give too many youngsters their chances.

He's still a young coach and will get better. He's held in very high regard by the players and is very knowledgeable about RL. His tactics and perhaps motiviation skills seem to be what let him down.

All in all, I'm glad he's left Hull as we desperately needed some change and I wish him all the best.

Oh dear I feel for you guys you make an amazing escape to stay in super league and then get saddled with Agar or dear.

Agar with a far better squad then Wakefield ever had couldnt win us anything, and couldnt even beat a super league team in the challenge cup so god help him with your squad.

No chance of Manu joining you guys either

The thing is, that’s being sold to us as one of Agar’s virtues.

Quote: bellycouldtackle "He is our coach now and as such I wish him every success. I hear good things from people who know a great deal more than me. I am told by people whose opinion I trust that RA is a great choice of coach for us.
I am sure that I am guilty of jumping to an opinion about RA from the persona that is portrayed on TV and by comments made by Hull fans who may well be just the vocal minority. It is obvious that RA does not court publicity, we never see him as a sky guest, he may just be the sort of chap who likes to quietly go about doing the best job he can possibly do. I am told that he will work well with our excellent youth rugby staff, that he has a fantastic work ethic, that he got rid of the drinking culture at Hull, that he got rid of problem players, that he is very well regarded by players loke O`Mealy, Fitsgibbon and Manu. Good luck to RA. I am pleased that I have taken the time to speak to people in the game, outside of Wakefield to find out more about the man.'"


This is exactly how I feel - it's hard not to have your judgement coloured by the "Agar Out" contingent. If you look beyond that he's got a lot going for him. Good luck Richard.

I'm sorry to see you making the same mistakes that we previously made, yet again.

After we promoted John Kear beyond his capabilities to the position of Head Coach, we did the same with Richard Agar.

There is no doubting the technical, coaching abilities of each man, unfortunately there is much more to the role than that.

Good luck lads, you'll need it I'm afraid.

I have no idea but that press release is just comical, surely the man who likes detail should be checking this before it gets released!!

Quote: Khlav Kalash "The thing is, that’s being sold to us as one of Agar’s virtues.'"


yeah I noticed that icon_confused.gif

The four the article mentions are Briscoe, Houghton, Lyne and Turner.

Briscoe is a freak of nature and would have come through at any club.

Houghton has learnt the hooking role from two of the best hookers in recent years, Swain & Berrigan.

Turner was signed from Salford two years ago where he was already a regular. he hasn't really nailed down a spot at FC yet, although has had a good run at centre recently.

Lyne has made a handful of appearences on the wing, and seems out of his depth at SL level.

Two players in 3 and a half years is not good enough, especially when we've signed around 20 foreign players in the same period.

“We will not accept a top eight finish as a barometer of supposed success at any point in the future whilst I am the owner of this club." Adam Pearson, FC Website 23-09-2011:



Quote: Neville Bartos "Agar was always up against it at Hull.
'"



What a load of horse poop.

He had 4 years to change the team how he saw fit and is still garbage. The team only started playing when AP took over and Agars days were numbered

If you think Agar was up against it at Hull, what chance has he at Wakefield?

the sign of a good coach is a coach who can make a rubbish team better.

John Kear, Brian Noble, Justin Morgan, Tony Smith, Nathan Brown are examples

The sign of a rubbish coach is one who can take a top side and make them mediocre

Richard Agar & Steve Mcnamara are examples
