| Agar may well be for the chop.
What about the people who appointed him and then awarded him a two year extention, shouldn't they be for the chop?
Your CEO has made poor coaching appointment after poor coaching appointment. It is the CEO who MUST go first!
Your current CEO will only make another wrong decision and take the club further back than it is now.
A new CEO would bring a new attitude to the club and if it was someone with a track record of quality and excellence then they will bring quality people in who will do an excellent job.
You need a new coach but you also need someone with the ability to appoint a quality new coach. Your current CEO by the recent track record doesn't appear to have that ability.

Just one point, James Rule has only been Chief Exec for the appointment of Agar. Fair play it's a bad one, but it's wrong to say that he has a track record of appointing poor coach after poor coach.

Especially considering that he doesn't actually make the decision.

I suspected that was the case. The only concern I have about Rule is whether or not he has his own opinion on rugby-related matters.

| Quote Jake the Peg="Jake the Peg"None of them support the club so why would they care?'"
Jake they have a vested interest in the business that is Hull FC. Ok we will be in SL for the next 3 yrs minimum. I know some claim the A grade gives us another 6 at least but the RL are very good at moving goalposts.
Sponsors need to see who they are exposed to. Its a fact that the more successful teams appear on TV the most. P+O who pay the biggest wedge after Sky will soon disappear if they see no return.
ISC will not sell so many shirts and whilst they provide to many smaller clubs than us they will not be willing to pump out quite so much when sales drop.
Crowds alone dropping affects the finances drastically and before the BOD know it their pay cheque will be heading into the red.
Very simply put that's why they HAVE to care.
34 yrs I have supported this club. 21 of them from the south of England. Every year I have ploughed in a large % of my income. They have not had a penny from me since I attended the Sts match last June. Ok I am not SKy or P+O etc but I am part of the clubs biggest sponsors the fans. I am not alone in my views on financing this regime.
The club through JR and JC have made it clear I don't really count as I am not Sky or P+O or a cooperate sponsor, but I am a constant over a long time I know of no sponsor who has been around as long as me. I am slowly getting out of the habit and if things don't change my weekly habits will revolve around many other more entertaining pass times that are vying for my disposable.

If you are replying to me I never said that. I have read my bit again and I understand what I said but to make it clear for you. Our sponsors may well disappear or at the very least reduce the wedge they input.
I am not Sky or P+O corporate sponsor etc but I have been a constant for 34 yrs which is far more than any sponsor. Its for that reason that the BOD need to care about us as for me its a chicken and egg situation. If the 18th man isn't there en mass the sponsors will not be there en mass.
The NL teams don't get sponsorship like us why is that?
The NL teams don't make profits like us why is that?
Most of the SL teams don't attract sponsors paying what ours do, why is that ?
Most SL teams make a loss Hull FC by all accounts don't, why is that ?
When the answer to all of the above walks away from Hull FC the BOD will start asking the questions.
Sorry if I was ambiguous

toatally agree with you the board have taken us for granted and now we are seeing our poor on the field results and performances having a bearing on the crowds ect and if it carries on then no doubt that will have an huge effect on sponsors ect

| Nothing will stop me from going to see Hull F C The only time will be
when they are screwing my coffin down ..And my first game was way back in 1941
I was only a baby when my mother took me ..I have seen coaches come and go and I still haven't
lost my chance to see another one go..Ps Board members too

I admire your dedication and loyalty for over 60 yrs. Unfortunately I have to prioritise and when its over £60 for tickets for me and the family before petrol etc when you are not being entertained decisions have to be made.
Some say its been worst and possibly 1999 was but we had an honesty about the players and coaches then and we didn't pretend to be a massive club. The lack of desire on the field and the spin off it have worn thin now.
