I have two issues with the idea of a protest...
1. It will look a bit silly the whole time we are still in the top 8.
2. It will achieve nothing as it will not involve enough fans.
Staying away strikes me as a high-risk strategy. Do it in sufficient numbers to make a point and you risk the financial well-being of the club. It then becomes a case of playing chicken with the board and hoping they blink first.
I have no view on how loyal or otherwise fans who want to protest or stay away are.

I do not care about professional I want to go watch my team play entertaining rugby and look competitive...So far for nearly 3 season I have not seen this...These so called passionate professional people just seem quite happy to rob my money every fecking season!!

We are in a virtually identical position to last year and playing no better.

Think carefully about how much money KH placed into limbo for so long to keep the club moving forwards!!

If they were that bothered they would have recruited the best possible person for the most important job at the club. Head Coach!! Either they are more interested in the money or they are completely clueless when it comes to on-field matters. Its also not a FACT that "there is no bigger fan of FC and no one who wants them to do well more than KH".
The FACTS are that we are yet again underachieving in the areas that really matter to the fans. On the pitch. I couldn't give a toss if Agar is the most professional coach in the world, IMO he is not upto the job of making FC a top SL side. He has been given plenty of time to prove himself, well I'm afraid all we ever hear is excuse after excuse and I'm sick of it. The contract extension on April Fools Day was the last straw for me and proof that those at the top are willing to say anything to keep us quiet and they will do whatever the hell they want regardless.

we could have the whole Australian test pack and the Kiwi backs in B&W but without creativity in the middle its still route one footie as we have now, one out drive and kick

I am not interested mate...I have as many fans have sunk and continue to sink a lot of money in order to keep the club moving forward...
Is our club moving forward...Bank balance yes...on the field NO!!

It will just make the whole scenario that much worse .. thankfully it will not happen because folk in RL do not do those things'"
Since they cant play much worse currently whats the difference? I would prefer Agar would make them play better but since that has been proved beyond his capabilities we have little other option.

| Quote: Hull Kingston Convicts "From what I recall they spend 90 minutes singing about a player who last played for them in 1997.
Now that is iconic status.
I bet all our board could not name a single FC player from 1997'"
So 80 minutes of us singing Chico time it is then

There is no FACT when it comes down to Agar's ability as a head coach. The fans don't rate him but the board still seem to have belief in him. They may or may not be proved right but they have made a decision on what they think is good for Hull FC. They would not appoint the wrong guy because it was cheaper.
I would like Agar to go at the end of the season but some of the bollox written about the board at times is laughable.

The FACT about agar is that there is little or no evidence to prove that he is a good coach yet shedloads to the contrary.

Again its not something I normally condone and if it wasn't for the fact the board have signed up for another 2 and half years of this I wouldn't be suggesting it now.

That's opinion not fact. The fans might end up being right about him or maybe the board will be proved right. My point is they would not knowingly appoint someone that they thought was no good, they want the club to do well just like we do.
