Bl00dy hell, 6 posts and he's invited into the club. I'm still waiting after 6,000 (most of them rubbish, admittedly)

You're already a Junior Robin, what more do you want?

Didnt mind him tbh.........got sacked for less than what Agar is upto.

If anyone thinks that our CEO makes decisions on hiring and firing coaches they are well out of touch with things. He like everyone else does as he is told and I am going to amaze a few people with my next comments.

He has done a good job all things considered.



1) He took over in the wake of the cooke saga and steadied the ship

2) He took the blame over the Thackery registration and it was not his fault

3) The club is clearly operating on a good business level, I think even the harshest of the clubs critics would agree with that.

4) He is articulate and has clearly demonstrated a high level of commitment to the club and by that I mean the board.

5) He is loyal to his employer and that is not a crime, the board pays his salary not us muppets.

Agar is one problem

Jimbo is IMHO not

Man the treches and get your tin hats on.........Here comes the barrage.

Interesting perspective on Rule's position, Ian P also. However, if it is indeed the case that he had no part in Agar's appointment and has no power to sack him then he has simply accepted that it is part of his remit to be a 'lightening conductor' for the wrath of fans. Thus by being prepared to continually back Agar in the press and on the radio he deserves the flack that he gets for this aswell as the damage to fans perceptions of his intelligence and ability to do his job. I accept of course that he's in a good, highly paid job and it's understandable that he doesn't want to lose it and therefore has to tow the party line, but as a consequence of this he has to accept the resulting criticism.

I think the board have realised that they probably got rid of Kear and Sharp too hastily...so are deciding to give time to the coach that really doesn't deserve it in a bid for stability.

Whilst i was in favour of Sharp going (I think he had really ran out of ideas and physically appeared drained and stressed) the rugby we thought was bad then was better than 2009 has been

this clubs got so bad that i'm getting misty eyed for the inconsistent days of Kear, missing the playoffs cos of salary cap breach in 2003, heck at least 1999 had the stress and drama of possibly going down and going bust. This season is just dead rubber all the way now.

And if agar goes i wonder who will replace him?

Another donut in sharp

Fair point, it's one of my biggest fears that if Agar does get the boot they'll only install J Sharp, but I don't think that's a valid reason to accept Agar staying!

Do people think that Hetherington would get rid of Rule considering he is shacking up with her daughter
