r agar . hope you have a big top . the clown will be with you soon .you deserve better

Diane gave the job to about eight different people and her job was never on the line. I doubt it that the Golden Boy's will be too.

Roonaldo why do you have a personal vendetta against Elston? Has he shagged yhour lass or something?

Just generally, Im not his biggest fan. And dont know how he was playing at Dewsbury as a hooker on a Sunday and by the Wednesday he's Chief Exec at Wakey.

That's a really good point.

People are making an assumption that AG is naive and is being hoodwinked by JE into taking his mate on in a big job; let's not forget that AG is a successful businessman, operating at a level far above JE and in a very cut-throat environment. He's hardly likely to be taken in by him to such an extent that he'd risk his new acquisition.

In short, it's safe to assume that if Agar does join us, it's because AG believes he's the right man for the job.

And that will be the first bad decision that AG has made.

Time will tell; since AG pulled the SL rabbit out of the hat, my own view is that he's earned the right to receive the benefit of the doubt.

Mr Agar certainly wasn't my choice, but if he is appointed, I'll back him until I have a reason not to.

In your (and many others it would seem) opinion. For me give the bloke he chance if he does get the gig. If Agar gets us playing entertaining rugby, decent cup runs and a bash at the play offs in a hypothetical three year contract would you still be saying it was a bad decision?

I just put Agar head to head with Kear in a game of top trumps and just dont see where he actually beats him in any managerial areas. You know when you play Top Trumps and you know that certain player cant be beat on that certain area... Agar just doesnt have that oomph about him.

Im well impressed with the way the club have gone out and bought the right players, I just think we may have taken a backward step if the Agar appointment is true in the management decision. And obviously the rumours of him holding hands and skipping down Doncaster Road with Elston doesnt help that thought either !

I'm still not 100% convinced Agar will be Head Coach. I wouldn't be shocked to see him as Director of Rugby (not sure what they do though, and wasn't he offered that role at Hull?) or as assistant to a more experienced coach to be groomed for the top job.

If we wanted a Director Of Rugby role then Kear would have fitted the bill perfectly. (Shorter hours, less of a hands on role etc..). I dont think we need one as Elstons playing days will probably mean he covers that role in his CE role in the same way Ferres had a big say on certain things when he was in the CE role too.

Key word in there is think. Basically its all down to opinions and we all differ with them and rightly so. FWIW Agar wouldn;t be my prefered choice and if he does get the job I honestly don't believe it is because he played at Dewsbury with Elston and they are best buddies, I believe it will be for the right reasons. From what we've read on here (may or may not be true) Agar wasn't our first choice so maybe if he is appointed then he's the best of the rest. All I say is give whoever gets the job a chance to prove themselves, in 12 months time judge him, don't judge him now on his performance at another club under differnet management and structrures.

Agreed. Unless AG wants Elston to concentrate solely on the business side of things then I believe a DOR would be a waste of vital resources

Agreed.
