Complete rubbish. Agar will be in charge to see your booty.

The board back and believe in Agar. In terms of rugby league thet have financially backed him (transfer fees are rare and we have Tansey, Westerman and Obst on the coaches decision)

Therefore Agar will not go after 2 matches to a board that believe he is the right man. However a low attendance against Leeds (despite a ticket drive by the club) signals fans voting with their feet and ultimately a loss in revenue for the club.

My understanding is that the target is 6 wins from 10. Hudds next week would be 3 losses but after that there is only Wigan away that the club would mark down as a possible loss. Therefore Agars future lies within the 5 games after Wigan (assuming we beat Crusaders). The club take a low attendance on the chin against Crusaders (watch out for the 'free tickets for schools campaign') and then after Wigan expect points on the board. I understand this period will with losses see Agar relieved of duty, with 6 wins - stay of execution until the end of season and depending on results there after see if his contract is renewed.

Tbf,it was bloody freezing,and it was on sky.how many will have thought,sod it there are some cans in the fridge?

True and the reserved seating on East Stand didnt help but for a team that hit a 14,000 average last season you would expect first home game to hit the same expectations. Truth is season passes are down on last season and ticket sales were poor up to the run in of the Leeds game hence family tickets and reduced prices ( I heard 10,500 ish was the expected crowd before family day and reduced prices were introduced) - thats poor when you think Leeds probably brought 1500.

Last year had the hysteria of Long, O'Meley and Fitz. This year the pre season has been an anti climax.

I expect the Crusaders game to be the 10,500 - Season passes stand at around 8000 (despite the club claims) - down on last year and no away fans and I would say 3 poor results, a poor attendance will be there.

Without wishing to give away my secrets, it's so easy. This fella has only 10 posts to his name. There is some correlation between low post count and mischief-making IMO so someone coming on here and making a statement that will wind up an already agitated FC fanbase with only 10 posts arouses suspicion. On his post, click on "profile", then "search user's posts" and it gives you their 10 posts. Most seem to be about Sammut being nailed on, which was not true and wound up an already agitated FC fanbase. Maybe this chappy is genuine and the rumour is true, but the evidence available suggests some caution should be exercised.

Correct, but I like his way of thinking... I believe we should listen some more!!

I can't see Kath sacking her godson any time soon. If (and that's a bloody big if) she does, Webster will get promoted.

Expect to see Noble at Salford though

I've just woken from a dream where Agar had been sacked, I can't explain how much my heart sank when realised it wasn't real. In it RH interrupted a Lady Gaga song to break the news, and then went straight to interviewing McNamara about it! My frustration didn't last long though as I realised he just happened to be in the studio in his capacity as England coach. Just before I woke RH were saying the club were looking at Jim Dymock.

I'm going to spend less time thinking about rugby today.

Whatever the actual attendance against crusaders, the club will announce a figure over 10k
