I was being sarcastic. Our record at the JJB is beyond appalling and can't see past a 50 point shellacking. That said, Rovers were 12/1 [uON [/uto beat Catalans last weekend and look what happened there.

You can onyl beat what is in front of you and we did that and did it fairly well. Shame to let those last two tries in but lots of positive signs.

what a bundle of joy you are, cheer up mate!

Was it though?,if you remember last season the game ended with Nobby throwing a wobbler,it was that tight.

Got to say if Hull had scored the try down the full length of the wing we would have gone ballistic.

To be fair you can only try and beat what is in front of you and if you don't turn up in this league you will get beat.Imo there are no easy games anymore in superleague.

we have some real class fans dont we (you)
whilest everyone else was trying to get the lads going and giving them some encouragement i can only imagine you were one of those wishing we were losing.
how very sad indeed, that is possibly the worst post of the year so far , fancy slagging all your fellow fans in that manner

How cringeworthy was the countdown at the end....

My lord indeed, you must be absolutely gutted we won eh???
however the rest of us will have a great weekend and will wallow in the fact we now have points on the board and played well for them too !!!
were off and running, agars signing of Obst could be turning into a cracking piece of work and Horne was also stand out last night well done boys

i think he is talking about the ''agar out'' brigade!!! all the negative talk,and then everyone (inc the negative crew)decided to actually applaude the team,but ONLY,when we had a big lead

whenever, however ,whatever... we won the game , the fans got a treat to watch, a big win which we have all wanted and the doubters were proven wrong for one night!!
Agar got it dead right in both his support for horne, His signing of obst and even the bench looked well rotated so unfortunately i and many thousands of others couldnt see anything wrong and as the game went on remembered they were FC faithful again...
well done to the 18th man!!!

Im in the Agar out brigade and appluded the team out at the start and applauded the good bits,whinged at the bad and applauded them off....i showed my support to the players wearing the shirt....not him in the stand.

supporting the team is why we all go isnt it !!
lets hope this is the klick start and you are applauding him too by the end of the season mate

No chance...sorry but il only applaude him when he has his P45 in his back pocket.Didnt agree with him getting job and i wont change my view on him.

Cant believe some people haven't realised that I was taking the p[ii[/iss, especially seeing as I put all joking aside. I would never want the team to lose, what is the point in supporting a team if you want them to lose.

It would be nice for us to be 26 points up and then not concede 3 tries, which made the score look less impressive. Just seems our team can't play for the full 80. Like I said a top side would of nilled them last night as Crusaders were awful yet we still let 3 tries in.

Totally agree!!! i'm not Agar's biggest fan,but i have said all along that the players themselves needed to sort themselves out,and last night was a start,though the commitment i saw at Hudds was encouraging.Some of our player's have yet to hit form,so let's hope they can kick on from our first win!! Crusaders maybe no wigan,but i was at cardiff when they stuffed salford,and they looked very well organised,with two halfbacks,that would grace most teams,so fc deserve all the plaudits for the victory,including Agar.

Fully agree. Fitzgibbon, for example, is putting in 60-odd tackles a week - can't think of any players pulling on the shirt since I've been going (20 years) who demonstrate his commitment to the team. Sounds like Horne is playing when possibly he shouldn't be for the sake of the team. O'Meley last season played several rounds with busted ribs. The effort is there even if the planning and execution aren't and the players deserve our support IMO.

It was a much improved performance last night. We looked nervous for the first 15 min and then settled down and played some good rugby once we were in front. Apart from a sloppy 10 mins when we conceded the points and the spell when we didnt complete 4 sets on the trot, but made up for it with some great goal line defence, I thought it was pretty good.

The thing is at the minute, some people would not have been happy no matter what we did last night. We had a guy near us that kicked off after Yeamo made that that break in the first half because we took a drive in on the next play!

Last night was never gonna be a quick fix, but I thought it was definately a step in the right direction.

very similar to the one hall scored last season

Seem to remember Hall didn't break the tackle as such he ran around the outside of the defender. Williams ran through a powder puff effort by Manu and Obst.

Hall came round on an arcing run and found a gap from memory. Similar in that he went round the FB as if he wan't there

but let in more tries than soft mick!!!

42-18 and yet people are still moaning. It's very rare teams are nilled these days, it takes some effort to hold a team out for 80 minutes. With the start we've had this season to take a side apart with the score we have is a great effort and should be judged so, I would've loved to have nilled them last night or kept them down to 6 points but they were late tries and the game was won, let's just be pleased at the fact.

But that's just it planning and execution isn't there so everyone has to be responsible. We've turned posession over very cheap, our execution is the opposition 20 metre area has been below average, it took us almost 20 mins against Hudds to get into their half with tackles in hand, for our first three games we conceded a massive amount of points and our kicking game has been hopeless but yet Agar takes the flack and the players should just be supported? For me the performances, until last night, haven't been good enough. I'm not an Agar fan but the players have to take responsibility too.



If the players perform badly you still applaud them off and it's the coaches fault? should the players not take some blame for performing below par? we lost three on the bounce that is not completely and only Agar's fault.
