| Quote Sebasteeno="Sebasteeno"Whats it matter if people swear? We are passionate about our club and some people are rather annoyed at the the way its being run and that comes out on the petition. Doesnt make it any less valid and if, and its a massive if, it makes any differnece im sure the powers that be wont be reading individual comments but more looking at the numbers that are against Agar'"
Personally, I don't have a problem with swearing. But there's a time and a place for it. When a petition is being submitted to the board of directors, it will be very easy to dismiss it out of hand if it's full of the sort of comments that are appearing on this one. Why should the club give any credence to a document that calls one of its employees a 'c***'?
In my view, such a petition and the comments it contains should appear to have been fully considered by the signatories and ought to be a measured response to the situation we find ourselves in. Sending a load of bile and vitriol to the club totally undermines the validity of the argument on the opening page.
I appreciate your view is different, I'm just giving mine: if those comments stay, it will end up in the bin. It might well end up there anyway, but it certainly will if they're not removed. |

Well said 
This is my view also. |

| DW guys.
I'm a computer buff 
When the petition is ready to sign, i'll export all the signatures into CSV, I can send the names and e-mails, and comments, or just the Names and E-mails (and selected comments) to the hull board. (Most probably end up sending it as a .PDF format.
Or i can simply filter the words on excel such as ",,bitch,ing," etc.
Do you really think i'm going to send it like it is to the directors, although I feel like doing so, because all the names what they have been called by some fans, is fecking true.

i'd be tempted to go to a home game with a few ppl and ask wether ppl are happy at paying top money to watch 2nd rate rugby and then say are you happy with the coaching set up and would you be prepared to sign a petition to relieve the club of its current coach.

I wouldn't do that. Anything that is remotely abusive (even if it is "loving bitch") will be dismissed out of hand.

You see, I don't think they are. Perhaps the "sh*te coach" style comments are (although they could be worded far more appropriately), but I don't think Agar is a "c***", or any of the other abusive names he's been called. |

| Quote Dobbo Hull="Dobbo Hull"Im filtering some of the fake and duplicate signatures now aswell.
I'll do as many as possible, although it would be better to filter through them towards the end of the petition, that way it's not a constant task.

I'm guessing this one is not all it would seem. (Although you can't blame her for looking after her man).

Seriously being in the same boat not a bad idea, you could just take Mcrea back from us  |

| Quote Rock God X="Rock God X"Sure. For a start, I think the bit about player recruitment has to go. Many people would argue that this has been one of Agar's stronger areas. Mistakes have been made, I think, but there have been some successes as well.
I think the bit about 'all other SL teams' having a top quality proven SL coach has to go as well, as it's not true.
I also thinki the statement needs to be less emotional. I appreciate that emotions are running high at the moment, but it doesn't come across well in a petition that's intended to be presented to the board.
I'd stick to a very general statement about how the off-field set up is not being matched by results (and performances) on the field and how Agar seems unable to get the best out of a decent group of players.
I've never drafted a petition before, but I'd go something along these lines:
[iWe, the undersigned, wish to petition for the immediate removal of Richard Agar from his position as Head Coach of Hull FC. We do so on the following grounds:
1) That performances throughout his tenure have not been of an acceptable standard given the playing staff as his disposal. Lack of support play, poor defensive line speed, lack of any discernible attacking structure and the tendency for our edge defence to be exposed have been features of our play for the entire time that Richard Agar has been in charge of the first team. There has been little to no improvement in these areas.
2) The interchanges executed by the coach seem to make little sense. Some players seem to be forced into playing many more minutes than they ought to whilst others play only for very short spells to the detriment of the overall team performance.
3) Agar seems unable to motivate his players for big games. The recent derbies and the last two home games against Leeds are standout examples of this, but there have been many throughout Agar's tenure.
4) Most fans watch rugby league for entertainment. Our style of rugby under Richard Agar has been anything other than entertaining. We are also amongst the most expensive team to watch in the entire competition. It is time that the standard of entertainment improved to reflect this fact.
5) Off the field, we are a top-performing club. We have one of the highest average attendances in Super League and excellent merchandise sales. We are constantly reminded of our 'Grade-A' licence status, yet, when it comes to results on the field, we're no better than Grade B or C.
We, as loyal fans of Hull FC, will support this club through thick and thin provided we know that those running the club are doing everything within their power to bring us the success we deserve. As things stand, we feel that this is not the case. Until Richard Agar is replaced with a top-quality coach with a proven track record of success, the feeling amongst the signatories below will be that you are doing both the club and the fans a great disservice. [/i
That's just off the top of my head and others might have a better idea of how it ought to be structured than I. Any input is welcome...'"
2. has to go for me... I'm a fan and as a fan I have opinions but I do not work in RL so cannot comment on interchanges or the finer tactical detail which, despite what some on here think, only those directly involved in the game are placed to argue for or against. The coach ain't doing his job.... FACT. I think all the other points are well made. |

Someone should actually start a petition about Hetherington & Rule, the real cancer in our club.... Ask those that work there.
