| Please everyone get on twitter (or register if you've not done so) and message Glover and Elston to show how much you do not want Agar. Before they make a crazy announcement.
If not, there could be a lot of banners and chanting on Friday.

| Think it is a good idea for your clubs sake. After 4 years with him at the helm I really feel sorry for his next club whoever it is.

| sorry but this really is pathetic , if agar is the boards choice then so be it WE as fans have got to give the bloke a chance there seems to be a hate campaign against him before hes even stepped in the place , im all for giving someone a chance if after 2 months we havent won a game then complain but not before hes even started it cant be worse than this season can it.

Why is it pathetic?
As a club member and soneone who cares passionately about our future, I am more than entitled to question the choice of coach and voice an opinion.
It can get worse! If Agar can't coach a team of internationals and a big budget, he can't coach strugglers and triers like us! Nor will he change us from strugglers and triers, to a competitive side.

| I think a few people on here need to take a bit of a reality check.
Who with any experience were we ever likely to get, hes a better choice than Noble Morgan or Millward, others mentioned have no SL experience, some of them were just plain lunacy and we were never likely to get Gentle who may go on to be as successful as his predecessor!!!!.
We are a small club with a poor track record, a history of bad finances and a poor stadium.
Maybe in a few years with a bit of stability we may be able to bring in a better coach who knows?
For know he (if he comes) starts with a clean slate and i will judge him on his job here at BV.

| Desmond Decker, Agar is not the fans choice if you look at recent polls on this forum. Fans vote with their pockets. Some are happy for him to come to Wakefield, some are not. We all have a voice and a right to be heard.

I would take issue with the idea that he is better than Millward and Morgan!
Agar won't change us from being a "small" club, nor will be provide stability. We need to improve and grow, not stay where we are!
Christ, the HFC fans are having street parties! What does that tell you?

| it is how do u know ??
there maybe a culture at hull that hasnt changed for years HE isnt my choice but how you can predict a new start with new players who gain is respect it wont be any different you cant so give the guy a chance and if your not going to get behind him and the clubs decision if agar is the choice then your not a fan at all theres no point taking your bat and ball home if we havent appointed who you wanted only time will tell who is right and who is wrong

| I don't understand why you are all so downbeat about getting him (if you do)? Realistically, who are the other options? Goulding?
Agar has his flaws, so do other coaches, but I feel certain that he's left us a much better team than what he inherited. The culture of the club is much better too, the 'drinking culture' of Tansey, Thackray, Berrigan and King was weeded out by Agar. The player's all seem to really like playing for him (may be too much?) a lot of people speak highly of him.
He has taken us from bottom of the league to guaranteed top 8 finishes. He atleast deserves a chance.

Explain to me why you think Millward and Morgan are better coach's?
The FC fans were having a party when JK left, he did ok under terrible conditions, until lately.
I think we need to be realistic about our place in SL and how we are viewed by the outside world.
Maybe after few years growth and with NM sorted we will be a better option for better coach's.

| How about back the club and give the new man a chance.
I do not know who some of you were expecting but realistically I doubt very much with so many coaching seats to be filled at higher profile clubs you would be fighting off a long list of proven big name coaches.
I do not know who is coming, but given what Mr Glover has achieved in his short time at the club, I think he deserves the chance to appoint a coach and not be slammed for it before firstly it has been made official and secondly prior to any games being played under his guidance.

| Millwards record is considerably better than Agars - how can you not see that?
And Morgan has been at least as successful, with a fledgling team that came up from NL and with a much lighter budget.
Agar has had quality players, top to bottom and BIG money. He has failed.
Why the hell should we accept being a project club for him to develop his coaching career? He's had his chance at Hull - what are we? A registered charity for coaches!!!?
I will not accept this "little old Wakefield" crap. You reap what you sow.

You need a new coach at Wigan - you give a him a chance.
The selection of the coach will tell the RL world about our ambition. It needs the right man - not someone who needs "a chance".

Apparently Hull haven't spent the full cap over the last few seasons. Morgan has done well but Agar has taken his team to a CC final which (IMO) means he's been more successful than Morgan (only just)

| Let's be honest about it. I can't recall anyone proclaiming Agar would be a great appointment. I would rather have given Cummins a shot personally - although if he brings in 3/4 good signings and gets us playing attractive, competitive RL I'll happily eat humble pie. Problem is if he doesn't achieve results quickly a lot of fans will get on his back or simply stop coming - could be disasterous.

I think whilst "achievements" are loosely comparable, the positions from which those achivements have been made point to Morgan having the bragging rights.

| Noble is surely a better appointment than Agar?? If we couldnt afford him then that is a different matter but i cant see how anyone could compare the 2 and confidently say that Agar is a better appointment??
I am still not sure its a definate as it would not go along with the recent statement the club has made with regards to junior development and attracting big names. Think i will wait for confirmation from the club before losing it anymore!

Millward's done now't for years, if he's such a great coach how come he's been at Leigh for so long?
Morgan has spent far more than Agar and has not achieved anything, he is also on a lot more £££ than agar, and for what return?
Over the next three years we are finishing in the top eight and reach a cup final i for one will be quite happy.
We are little old Wakefield, and wether you like it or not doesnt change anything, its what we are and more importantly its how we are viewed by others, (such as coach's) in the RL world.
Good god man! you only had to look at some of the joke names who put in for the job to see that.
