Exactly what I would agree.



Agar needs a proven top of coach to learn from.

We need someone soon. Not necessarily to rescue this season, but predominantly to build for next season and onward.



We have some great players, but we are not getting them developed to their full potential. There are a few coming off contract this year and next. We need someone now who might have time to assess, what we have and what we need to replace, before contracts are extended etc:

You don't go into sports teams to make £££££££ - you go in as a passionate hobby hoping to be as successful as possible whilst keeping losses to an absolute minimum or at least what you can afford to lose.

Our board are investors before they are supporters - the majority wher involved at Gateshead and that is the cross we bear from the merger.



Agar/Crooks/Sharp/Harman/Last - they can all go for me and then the board can sell 49% of the Club to supporters via a share issue and hope 51% are bought by an East Yorkshire wealthy supporter with ££££ to lose.

But Hull is primarily a business and it is managed very successfully. Unlike other clubs that are run with passion by fans who focus on getting the most success possible on-the-field. Our club's priorities clearly lie off-the-field.

I am glad it happens to be run successfully as I lost a LOT of shares when big Shane shut us down .

However I don't follow a club that is primarily a business and when I bought my shares in 1995 I didn't buy them as an investment I bought them as a show of respect to Royce Simmons and knew that I would never see any divi etc.

However my point is Shane Richie and the others dragged in NEVER joined Gateshead then Hull FC for the love or passion - £££££££££££££ and it still is today.

Adam Pearson cries when whichever team he is involved with , loses. WHY ? Kath and 1-2 other directors 'love' HullFC because their £££ is tied up and that is the only reason. If Kath sold up would she be a season pass holder at HULL ?? Come on Whitestar - are you playing devil's on this thread

I'm saying that our board don't care if we play boring rugby and win nothing as long as the £££££ keep rolling in !! which they always do !!



It pi$$e$ me right off but while we have this board, we will always have to accept that on-the-field success is way down on their list of priorities.

I agree with this!



Like it or not, unfortunately we are still paying the price for our survival.



No one with a 'passion' for the club, came in and bailed us out. It was a board that saw the potential to make some ££'s. Had they not, then we would have gone.

St Helens are not run by a bloke who is passionate about them are they?

Simple they where part of the cap until Crocker was finally turn down he was taking up a space Lauaki until he get a visa will also be part of the cap ..on the Crocker part we should move on and look to sign somebody ..but the question is "WHO "all good players are signed up where do you find a good 6/7 this late in the season

or do we do a Rovers and poacher somebody

This is actually a fantastic post as not only did Webbo get injured and we sign Dobbo the next week but to do it we let go of Webbo.

So our board in doing what they felt was best for the club let go of the fans favourite and club talisman without the blinking of an eye as it was the best for the club.

If you invest you get the best for you clients ..if not you are going to lose they trade ..If it was my money I would have people out trying to get me the best so my investment would then grow ..a lot of fans are losing heart and will take they business else were

Although I am not happy with our present comedy duo, I would not want Mc Namara..like Sharpe they lose their jobs for reason they are cr@p

Calm down

Last time i checked it was a Rugby League club. With several on and off the field failings
