Have to agree that we are never going to sell 2500 season tickets if Agar gets appointed.

Maybe that is why there is such a delay. Keep delaying it till the end of September hoping we reach the 2500 mark and then announce Agar. Can't see this working myself as too many people now are waiting on the announcement before getting theirs.

The right announcement in the next few days could see a big take up prior to the final game of the season, after that footfall at the club drops off completely and there is less chance to push the sales.

Come on AG, do the right thing, announce someone other than Agar by Monday and see what happens with ticket sales!!

Not only that but we only have half a squad !

How do they expect people to buy a ticket for anything if they don't know what they are going to finish up with.

so forget 'together we are stronger'

How about 'Ticket sales wither, while AG and Jimmy dither'

Thats great news but like you said earlier if we get the wrong coach tickets will be 175 and some fans will get a refund and vote with the old feet.

I would be happy with Cummins and maybe Matt Adamson as his assistant??
As much as everyone wants a previous "hero" JD, Willie, Wright etc involved somewhere, id much rather just have the right people. Someone who doesnt have a link with the club may not be such a bad thing although it may help get the ST sales up!

Whoever it is, needs to make sure they get a top class conditioner in asap as that is something we have been lacking for a good few years!

Basically, i would be happy with pretty much anyone except Agar (im not even taking into consideration the Goulding/Schoey rumours!)

To throw another name in the mix, someone (who may be talking nonsense) mentioned Matthew Elliott to me last week as someone who was interested??

Assistant at Roosters according to Wiki, so may be tempted at a HC role over here. Now that would be a decent signing!!

Was sacked by penrith a few month ago. Dont think there fans were to keen on him but could be better than other applicants who knows?

Forget Elliott, Cummins, Agar or Goulding - Favourite for Wakey job os Andrew Dunneman.
