there are

Macnamara for a start!

the vast majority,myself included who post on this forum probably aren"t that knowledgable about RL - we all have opinions based on our own experiences - that's what the forum is about,giving your opinion however stupid it may seem to you.Even great ex players like Phil Clarke who has forgotten more about the game than most of us will ever know talks like a complete plonker most of the time !



Agar will go and i'm sure there will be the usual suspects sending in their CVs to take the lucrative post.Taking flak from us the hard done by fans is all part of the job and is more than compensated with thier salary,plus perks.



I'm not in Hull - i'm just a troll who enjoys a good debate with or without alcoholic refreshment trying to make a contribution to an open discusion,hower idiotic you may find it.

fair enough,but the love/lure of money plus the challenge might just tempt him - whether he is good enough I have no idea ! great players don't always make great coaches as we have seen many times



great coach obviously but will they go british again ? maybe Mr McRae will return ?



depends on what you call a good job ? he's done ok but is the criteria for success simply winning trophies or producing a team that will always compete at the highest level ? There are only so many trophies to go around !

Didn't Agar, a poor coach, take what a lot on here consider a poor team, to top 6.
Just playing Devil's Advocate.

I agree. I also agree that Agar should go. I do not agree that Noble should replace him. I have no suggestions to offer, as I don't know who else is available.

I do find it interesting that, aside from Standee, the people who are most against Noble coming in are those who back/ have backed Agar the most. I can understand the view that Noble isn't the man to take us to the very top, but the claim that we have a better chance of success under Agar than we would under Noble is beyond all reason.

For that very reason he should not replace someone, who is also not capable of taking us to the top.

It's not a [ireason[/i though is it? It's an understandable point of view that has some evidence to back it up and some evidence to go against it.

IMO given our board's limited vision and ambition, Noble is the best we can hope to get and things would improve greatly under him. Maybe in a few years time we'll all feel he's taken us as far as he can but I'm quite happy to cross that bridge if and when we come to it.

It is a very reasonable point of view, however my point of view is, that to go from Agar to Noble, will only end up with us further down that famous creek, only this time we'll not only be without a paddle, we may well have a large hole in the canoe.

That's not what you said before though? To carry on your metaphor, maybe Noble wouldn't get us to the top of the creek, but to suggest that he'd take us further down it than Agar already has defies logic.

So why not bring Noble in on a deal till the end of the season, tell him were looking for a coach on a 2/3 year deal starting 2012 and that he's expected to apply, been the current coach it's his to lose, then interview other applicants and make a appointment asap for recruitment purposes.

only one problem with that, we've a shed load of recruitment to do.

I agree that's a good idea from FC's viewpoint, but from Noble's point of view I think he'd see it as disrespectful. He's one of the most successful coaches in the SL era..why would he agree to coming in on what is effectively a trial?

We better appoint someone asap then or we'll be ed for another 2 years.
