good player but would not go that far

The question we need to ask is can RA do similar at Wakey??

The headline is totally misleading. If you read his quotes, he doesn't say that Agar has 'transformed' him at all. He says that Agar and the coaching staff have looked after him and helped him to be able to play longer than 15 minutes.

Hope for Hickey then

Give over fella!



You might not like Richard Agar but don't try and bend everything that's said or written to suit your agenda.





[iHULL FC player of the year Willie Manu has praised the influence of departing coach Richard Agar in turning him into one of the most destructive players in Super League.[/i

Jumping on everything Agar and finding a way of criticising simply diminishes you argument that he is no good. It is obviously just personal to you.

You are making me feel better about his possible appointment actually

That's what the HDM have written, not a direct quote from the player.

I was criticising the inaccurate headline rather than Agar himself. And as for my feelings being 'just personal to me', I think you'll find that the vast majority of Hull fans feel the same way.



Good. As I said on the other thread, I'll be interested to see how happy you feel after he's been in post for a couple of years.



You and The Clan seem to be a little hostile to my opinions on the matter. I assure you that I take no pleasure in the fact that he may be appointed as your coach. I like Wakey as a club and, in the main, I like their fans. I'd much rather than the next club Agar messes up was based in East Hull.

I have grave reservations about Shaun McRae's ability as DoF and coach but I won't be all over the Hull board pouring acid on every thread.



Maybe SM will do well despite my misgivings and lets face it there's more evidence of SMs incompetence than there is for Agar, and maybe Agar will be a success at Wakefield despite what you think.

My god you really are blinded by your prejudice.

Er, I've commented on two threads. And I haven't poured acid on any of them. I expressed a reasonable opinion based on four years of watching Agar's team. As regards McRae, he's coming as an actual bona fide DOR - he'll have no direct input to coaching matters whatsoever. With his contacts and personality, he's the ideal bloke for that job.

Really? Wow. He won trophies at Saints, built a fantastic legacy (which has been subsequently destroyed) when he was at Hull, and did as well as anyone could have done with limited resources at Salford. Maybe. And maybe Avril Lavigne will be popping round to my house later for some nasty sex.

On the subject of Agar, despite what alot of my fellow one eyed Hull fans say, Agar has done alot of good at the club. Whilst im happy with us (hopefully) bringing in a top replacement I will be sad to see him go really. He was given a lot of grief that really wasnt deserved and I think at a club like Wakey where expectation isnt so high he could do really well.
