new two year deal so am told, thoughts on ths then, keep it clean if you can

Lets be serious here who else would we get if he went.

I think we've still got more to see from him, I guess hes just building his team and then we could see what we can do - on the little resources we have.

Did this come from yesterdays board meeting baz

No, i did not know their was a meeting

Mark Aston for one.

Doubt he would ever leave Sheffield.

Says it in one of the papers this morning. Can't remember which one. Was going to post it myself.



I'm happy with it for the following reasons:

1) I think he is doing ok job with the team he has. Many individuals have shown improvemnt under him, though some have dropped off at end of season

2) I think he is building a good team and is progressing. Even though some see it game to game and only points get prizes, we are competing at a higher level than we have before but slipped on some lower team points we shouldhave got.

3) There is no one out there I thinkw ould be better

4) The team always say they play for him and like him to a man, and if he isn't causing problems, the stability is a great asset to the team

Not particularly happy with a 2 year renewal but there is really little to chose from with regards to alternatives. They all to a certain extent would be gambles.



Poching could be an option. He's been around successful teams during his coaching career. He'll surely have picked up one or two good habits.

Poaching is often talked about but he has never been a head coach and we will be taking a step back while he learns with us.

Either bring him in as assistant or wait until wheels come off. Wouldn't bring him in now.

To be honest I dont think Agar is suited to be a head coach so having someone who has never been one shouldn't be too massive a step bckwards. They've all got to start somehere. I don't believe Wane had been a head coach before he got the Wigan job.

Not particularly convinced as lose the next two games which looks highly likely and its highly possible we will sit in 12th position to finish which is pretty dire tbh.



Now if others are investing heavily for next year like Salford and cas I really fear for us next season. With the same squad minus a few bodies and plus Tuson only signed Agar has alot to do next year.

I haven't seen any official confirmation, so this is probably a bit premature.



If it's true though, I'm content; last year's freakish outcome has made things difficult for him, but I think we're seeing steady progress on and off the field. If he has another 2 seasons with some money (?) and a total lack of interference in the playing roster by other parties, then I think we'll do ok.



I'm excited to see some of the young scholarship players come through the ranks, so he perhaps has to revisit his youth policy, to ensure that some of these lads see a first team shirt.
