| Quote: The Dentist Wilf "Well said Martin we have to stand together as supporters and see this through. We have seen a lot worse but that does not make it all OK!
I tend to think though that Mr Agar will be here at the start of next season. I also expect O'Meley and Co to come over and bang a few heads together. . They are being kept up to speed with the behaviour of our current players and I expect them to be saying soon what they will be doing when they get here! By what we are hearing from folks near the bench yesterday and what we saw when Thorman was taken off discipline is at an all time low. I would not be surprised if O'Meley is not aiming to get here early for that very reason.
Sadly if that is going to happen, then now is the time to get a new coach in place, then with leaders on and off the park we could just be a good team again. otherwise we could just loose another season!'"
Who's keeping these signings up to speed then? Surely not Agar as that would just be an admission of his failure and weakness - despite the near visionary status that Fitzgibbon and co have bestowed on him in their initial interviews about why they're coming here! If it's the current Aussies as someone else has said why can't they deal with it or why do they believe the new guys can? I'm sure you're right but it's a totally weird situation.
Really only the coach can sort it. Agar has to drop the players he's referring to and play anyone from the reserves or the academy with the right attitude. Or just pack his bags of course and take Sharp et al with him. |

We are, of course, assuming Agar is picking the team, and not certain people in the board room. |

This keeps coming up, and while not wanting to dismiss it out of hand I can't think of a single reason why anyone on the BOD would even [iwant[/i to get involved in picking the team.
What would be the point? |

You'd think, wouldn't you. Seems not to be the case for all players. |

At the moment, I would have Kath picking the side above Agar! |

| Quote: Standee "seems people have had a bit of chance to calm down now, we're at a low, it's not the lowest we have ever been at, the club is financially strong, there are issues for sure but do NOT give up on YOUR club, Messrs Rule etc. will not be here forever, nor will Agar/Sharp, and fortunately nor will Thorman, Thackeray etc al.
We must galvanise as fans, line up almost arm in arm, and see this through. I honestly believe that if Agar isn't pushed after the next defeat then he will jump, we need to be ready to support whoever comes in, yes even if that IS Jon Sharp.
Forever FC, FC Forever.'"
Agree totally, the club have to be seen to be pro-active and do something about this situation even if it is only Jon Sharp for now. |

Ludicrous if true. Although there is a fair amount of evidence that one player in particular is bulletproof.
BTW - could you edit the title of this thread slightly? I can't argue with the sentiment but every time I read it I hear that stupid Leeds United song the Rhinos sing.  |

Nonsense. If Jon Sharp was the answer, we'd be doing a lot better than we are. Replacing Agar with Sharp will make not one jot of difference. Waste of time. |

I haveposted before about supporting the team, its really hard when you watch performances like Sunday but I will always go to watch them.
The good thing now is that I don't expect much so it does make it a little easier afterwards, not much but a little.

I think there is an element of truth in that, especially with our No 7. |
