Can't be Agar. How does this:

"We have been looking for a coach that can work to improve the skills and ability of our current squad, but also work to bring in new players (both through the academy and from other clubs) to help strengthen the team for the 2012 season and beyond. The new coach must also be able attract world class overseas players, and make this a place that people want to come to."

equal this:

"Richard Agar"

I'll give hime a chance but I can't help thinking we've missed a big opportunity to inspire the fans and really change the culture.

Can't believe Agar would even want the job after reading the recent forums. No doubt it's better than unemployement till he gets a job somewhere where he's wanted?

The club read these boards, which makes this all seem worse. Totally uninspiring.

Rather give John Kear his job back.

Looks ominous but if so I'm willing to see how he goes. He's turned it around at Hull, something none of our coaches have done in SL when it's gotten really bad during their tenure.

Re: Agar leaving Hull... : Tue Sep 06, 2011 1:14 pm  

It does have an air of inevitability about it; Hull, with their wealthy new owner, have nicked Gentle out from under both ourselves and Cas, so we end up with their sloppy seconds in Agar, the Mr Bean of RL.

That said, it hasn't been announced yet, so I hold out a glimmer of hope that there may be another twist in the tale; after all, who genuinely thought we were going to get a SL franchise?

According to Martyn Sadler:

Hull looking to appoint Shaun McRae as Director of Football with Peter Gentle as Head Coach

Thats about it then. Thats why we have had weeks of silence.


How has McRae still got anything to do with rugby league??????? Flumped it at Souths and Salford and he's director of rugby????????????

:lol: How would the choice between Agar and Goulding be close? Agar who has been coach at a SL club for 4 years or Goulding who's never coached a SL team?

Neither has Franny Cummins but at the moment id take him in a heart beat.
