Announced.. guys.. I have it on good authority.. he'll be announced as your new coach in the next 24 hours... Sorry!

According to Martyn Sadler:

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

He's your problem now

Oh Dear

If true, very uninspiring. Would rather have had Cummings.

i sincerely hope he is not coming this way one bit. go to hull kr mr agar.

What a nightmare.

I bet you'd rather have lost your franchise!!!

my sympathies, he is a total loser.

Shine a light! If we`re getting Agar it doesn`t say much for the qualities of the other 6 candidates, Goulding and Schofield must have been among them!

In the words of Graham Taylor "Do i not like that!"

I would have been happier with Tony Dury or maybe even JK staying on. On what grounds could he be the best candidate? Unless the competition really was Schoey and Bobbie Goulding and even then its a close run thing!

Well that has just about confirmed the news most of the fans on here were dreading........AGAR to Wakefield !!
I for one will not be buying a season ticket. As a coach he has not managed to achieve anything with his pick of world class players and for me that confirms that as a coach he is nothing more than a cheap option.
If the Board think this is an exciting signing for us then they really have no idea.........totally deflated after beimg very excited about next season.

Nightmare

on a slightly positive note. he has been doing rather well since the change of directors and ownership at hull........ perhaps he would continue this with us if we suit how he works

What world class overseas players can he attract? Apart from washed out ones that want a final payday.

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?

O'Meley, Fitzgibbon, Seymour, Heremeia, Crocker (?) are all very good players!

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?

who would want agar!?!?!

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

Rather give John Kear his job back.
