Apart from the dismal display today, another thing that got me down was the lack of protest fom the stands. We seem to be just rolling over and letting this happen. I don't know the terms of Agar's contract but I don't think it is likely that many if any fans on the terraces or on here do either. I want answers from the club. What does it cost to be rid of him? Are you looking at it? If not, WHY THE HELL NOT??!! I think we now need to put pressure on the club with a more vocal and visible prostest. We need some 'Agar out' to be heard at the match. We need some banners. We need to make our feelings felt before its too late, because all I felt today on th pitch and around the whole gound was resignation. I watched Blackpool FC fans pelt the pitch with tennis balls and stop the game to get thei feelings heard tonight on sky. I am NOT suggesting we go that far but I think just walking away depressed and hoping is not the way now. Time to put pressure on fom the terraces fo me. AGAR OUT!

I totally agree Charlie, enough is enough and I believe a large percentage would agree with you too. I am sick to the back teeth of the same effortless displays, the same soft tries conceded, the same players picked who've had chance after chance to do something but still do not deliver, the same 8 tries or more conceded every game, the same pathetic tackling. What the hell does this coach do all week? Same old excuses after every game, "we've got some things to fix up this week " Flaming fix 'em up then! The guy talks a helluva good game but my goodness he doesn't know how to win one.

I said if Cas put 40+ on us Agar has to go. Nothing will change my decision.

Snowie only got a dozen people to help out with ground repairs, what makes you think thousands are gonna protest, this is the fickle Wakey fans we're talking about here!

We could all protest but ones things for sure Agar wont go of his own accord he showed that when at Hull look at the verbal he got from those fans and still continued until his contract ran out.

You are right, he will not walk, the protests he will get from Wakey fans will seem like compliments after being at Hull.
If he would just stop dicking around with the team and making excuses, it would be slightly better.
Someone has to take the decision out of his hands.
It's a huge call but one that has to be made.

I was in despair when we appointed him. I live in the East Riding..I saw the Hull perfomances. I heard the talk..I knew where this would end..I'm sure many of you knew it too. I'm not claiming special status..it just depresses me. For Christ's sake lets rid ousrelves of RICHARD AGAR!

MC was honest in admitting he had limited rugby knowledge, this is why he brought Kath Hetherington in.
Maybe MC feels a duty of loyalty because KH has come in and done a pretty good job.
Unfortunately the pick of Leeds loan players just about sums up RA's selection policy.
I don't think it's a secret that KH and RA are very good friends.
I hope MC has not backed himself into a corner by over trusting the people who have the 'rugby knowledge'.

A lot of us have said in the past what we could do if we won the lottery without being specific. I reckon the majority would now know exactly what would be the best use of that cash.
You can put me down for £100 anytime.

Sounds like a plan, fans are asked to back the club.
This maybe the way?

The answer to the OP's post is 'no'.
I remember the Good Friday fixture two years ago.
A depressing night. There were calls for Agar to go even then, albeit from a tiny drunken minority.
I think we'd only won two games by then as well.
Also remember the crowd cheering when Tim Smith was substituted against Warrington.
Indeed, we didn't start to turn things round until the Magic Weekend, when a scruffy victory saw us go on a run until the end of the season where we only lost another 4 games (from memory).
The squad we have this season is not as good as that one and certainly the defence is a concern.
But it is clear that Agar is still trying trying to find the right combinations. I don't necessarily agree with him but he's the coach and will live or die, in coaching terms, by his decisions.
I think in reality, he has until the Bradford game to get it right.
If we can get on something of a roll by then, then we should stay up. If we can't you can protest all you want as far as I'm concerned.
Protests at this stage will not help a team which is already clearly low on confidence.
