Suppose the obvious one is Man United/Fergie, although that means Agar must win something this year.

The irony of this isn't lost on me since by taking the decision to give Agar a new deal you have proved that the club clearly couldn't care less what the fans tell you, at least as far as on-pitch matters are concerned.'"
All record 9,500 season ticket holders who all bought their tickets when Agar was in charge you mean ? Plus the 3000 or so walk ups that haven't seen a home defeat yet this season ?
I respect your opinion but don't lose sight of the facts.

Agreed. Even when the string of other SL and NRL clubs were knocking on his door, Agar stayed loyal to Hull. Good on him.

| Why does this club want to waste another 2 years of being also rans? Wasn't the previous 2 seasons under Agar enough to prove that he doesn't have the ability to coach at a professional level.

| This is not only a crazy, non-sensical decision but also a very depressing one. Radford's 1yr extension last season was totally ridiculous and this decision is probably even worse.
What was wrong with waiting a month or two in order to see where we were with regard to results and performances ? As someone has already said, we have very much a season defining month ahead of us after which a more justified decision could have been made.
Yet again the club have jumped in with both feet and decided that the easy and cheap option is the best one.

I think the board are scared stiff of getting a coach with proven ability who will tell them to stuff off and mind their own business when it comes to team affairs, and not the 'don't whip me masser' we've got at the moment.All we get are assistants after assistant. We want a Leader. Hull Fc is just turning in a club where no one can do no wrong no matter how bad they are.

Listening to his pre match and post match interviews the lack of passion and any sort of desire is frightening, I hate to think how rivetting his team talks must be! And we wonder why the teams over the last few seasons seem to have had a lack of motivation.

Which may not be a cheap option if we choose/need to get rid in the next few weeks/months.

If that's the case, serves them right.

| When i woke up this morning i said to the wife i had a terrible nightmare last night that the club had signed Agar on another two year deal. However upon checking my inbox i realised that the night before was a horrible reality. Our club is the only club who can create an april fools joke like this but forget to add "Haha April Fools" at the end of it.
I have been on the fence regarding Agar for a while now and to be frankly honest he has done nothing for me to get off the fence and in his corner and i suspect the majority of the fans feel exactly the same way. So for the club to extend his contract for a further 2 years is nothing short of a disaster PR wise.
The player retention argument is a load of hogwash, as has been said by many, players come for the money first and foremost.
If we win tomorrow will we all instantly think it is a good decision to get him signed up before someone poaches him?? No i don't think so i for one wont suddenly become Agars no 1 fan if he manages a rare win over them. Surely the board would have been wiser holding off till the next 4 very important games are out of the way at the very least.

Maybe so, but we'd pay in the end through increased season pass prices etc
