Overall, I feel the board have done a good job in regards the financial side of the club.

The only minus was, the three gaffes regarding Cooke,Thackray and Reardon.

My major concern, is the opinion of James Rule, which he has stated on numerous occasions, that an appointment of a top coach or coaching staff is not important.

IF Agar goes, would they go for another unsuccessful or unproven coach??

you must have missed the forum she did, was only 4 years ago

Any links from the past month?

TBF I'd like to see a couple of interviews a year in the HDM - maybe one with Kath, one with another director. Would build on the progress already made.

Come to any Toulouse home game and after every game there is a get-together with the players,fans,match officials & owners etc - when the weather is good it's outside at the back of the stand and when it's bad weather it's in a building next door - there is a bar,usually with sandwiches available and usually the brass band,depending on how much they've had to drink during the match ! It's a great atmosphere and everyone gets to meet everyone else - you can exchange opinions - ask any visiting Championship fan !

No, have a look yourself if you're that interested. I'm not bothered about other clubs, only my own

I have no desire to spend any time with the directors. I'd just like to know their opinions on goings on at the club, their aspirations, vision etc

not that you're being a bit shallow minded of course ?

With the current owners we seem to have a plan in place and are building the club on solid foundations that can last. It won't be an overnight success story but it give us a good chance. With new cash rich owners we would get an immediate boost in terms of signing players for a couple of years but when they walk away would we be left with a sustainable financial model for the club to continue with?

It's the unknown which is the problem for me which is why I would tend to sway towards the current owners staying place.

James Rule is a Director, when ever the club has anything to announce its usually via him. been the CEO, thats part of his role, being the public face of the board.

Of the other clubs you mentioned, St's (McManus - Chairman), Salford (Wilkinson - Chairman), Bradford (Hood - Chairman), Wigan ( Linagen - Chairman) etc.... Whenever these clubs need to announce anything its these individuals who do it, usually via the RL press. You can bet your life these guiys would not go running to the press simply to give their opinion on something. They would either have something factual to announce about their club. The only club owner who is proactive with the press is Ken Davy

I'm happy with the levels of interaction with the board / CEO etc. I'd prefer our CEO to be working with the coach to recruit the right players than tell the fans about new offers in the club shop etc.
