What happens over the next few weeks regarding the leadership structure and personel in roles will define the next three years direction of the club and team. To lose the director of rugby and your coach at the same time as when you have significant recruitment/contracts negotiation taking place is an untenable situation without new appointments in place.If Agars situation is about achieving the best salary to support his family then if the club believes he's the right man for the job we should pay him accordingly. Kev has earned the right to make his own decisions however unless its a stepping stone to a different career path similar to the Andy Farrell route it does appear a strange move. I know we have been hit hard by covid and the stadium investment but to achieve the potential of the corporate package investment we need a competitive team capable of challenging at the top end particularly with Leeds Utd so strong currently. Hopefully negotiations are currently taking place and the club want to announce replacements for next year at the same time as confirming the departures if they happen. The incoming Director of Rugby must be involved in the decisions taken around recruitment and retention otherwise its years in the wilderness
