I don't mean anything as a cheap shot. I also think he was given plenty of time at Hull to do better, but simply didn't, and he wasn't treated unfairly by most. Neither do I think that him being a success for you would make most of us look stupid or require us to eat humble pie, as it wouldn't change what he did with us nor make what he did do any more successful. Sometimes coaches just don't work out for a club, and it may be that that was the case for him and us, or he may just have learnt enough from it to do a better job for you. I for one won't feel silly if he impresses for you, just as I won't take any satisfaction if he fails. I was just offering some observations of my experience of an Agar team and how they would appear to compare to some of your fans' impressions so far.

it's odd i agree. think he's looked okay in a below average team. which in a half back position is no mean feat. also compare and contrast that with the hero status afforded (by some) to ben cockayne who's our current top try scorer on the back of what for the most part would be called "tap ins" in soccer (no slight on bc for this for the more sensitive souls on here). we all have different opinions and perceptions i suppose.

It really does beggar belief the unfair criticism some players receive.
John creates three tries and I think someone referred to him as out of his depth.
Well done CostinsaGiant for giving opposing fans fair appraisal.
Having watched the video of the game I also feel Tim Smith had a fair game.
Took on the line, got over but ruled not to have touched down, constantly organising and I think we had three near misses off his passes.

I have to agree with Mr Spackler mate.I can`t see how we can be made to look stupid when all we have done is pointed out our last few seasons.I know it must get on your nerves with some Hull fans swooping in to have a go at Agar,but whatever the outcome I would not eat humble pie over my thoughts of him.I truly hope he does well for Wakey.As for being faceless,what else can we be on here?

Made to? In your case, I don't think any outside help is required.

Do Hull fans camp outside his house too and boo him on the way to work? Jeez, let it go, guys.

Hull has a pattern with coaches. In 7 years, we've had:
Love him, got us the cup - Kear - bored now, sack him.
Love him, got us to a Grand Final - Sharp - bored now, sack him
Love him, got us to Wembley - Agar - bored now, sack him.
Love him, putting us on the right track - Gentle - to be continued

We are playing dumb risky rugby because we have talented 1 to 7 and some good back rowers playing behind no punch in front row. Beaten pack = no go forward = risky Rugby..simples! Oh and nobody who can kick for good field position also simples...RL is a very simple game really

Thanks for that,if you met me face to face maybe you would form a different opinion .I seem to get up your nose for some reason.Why don`t you meet a person before you get personal?
This is a forum about opinions,I am entitled to one,if you agree or not.

Strange that both Kear and Agar have come from us to Wakey.
Sharp was missing his beach hut on Bondi beach.
Who knows,maybe you will have the Gentle touch next.

Not at all. IMO Kear was treated poorly by the club. Arguably the decision was the right one, but the way it was handled was definitely wrong. I actually think he deserved 2-3 more games.

Sharp paid the price for poor recruitment/retention, something that Agar actually did pretty well at for us. With the rumours that persistently circulated about our previous board it's still questionable whether Sharp was even to blame or just a sacrificial lamb for those above him doing things on the cheap.

Whether it sounds like sour grapes or not, and I appreciate that you fans want to give Agar a chance which is only right, Agar seemed to get far more backing from the board than either of the other 2 and with more control afforded to him than them, too. He still achieved less than both.

Do I really have to put a emoticon at the end for you to understand it was a tongue in cheek comment.

Sorry, sometimes it's hard to tell the difference as a couple of my posts seem to have been labelled/dismissed as petty sniping and sour grapes by others.
