Conspiracy theory. Kath wants rid of him, finally, but they live next door to each other so doesn't want the awkward conversation. She pays Childs to put in the display of his life and push Agar over the edge, winds Agar up by agreeing it's the worst reffing performance of 50 years and tells him to crack on and speak his mind. Agar then gets a ban from the RFL. Kath rings McNamara on speed dial. Job done.

Actually I heard James Child is her godson, so this could be true...

I went to the game with a workmate who is a cas fan and he was gobsmcked at the "penalty" that cas got just before they scored their final try, and the comment he made at full time was "Hull spent most of the game playing against 14 people".

I'm not normally one to have a pop at refs, but he 100% cost the game today. It takes a special kind of talent for someone to be that incompetent for an entire game.

"If you're going to sin bin people for that, sin bin everyone, not just one and be selective," Agar added. "Sean Long has has been dead-set cleaned out on their line at the end there, not even a penalty. "Absolutely cleaned out around the head, the same as he was on the sin-bin. Absolutely baffling.

It's baffling. We've all come, so many fans from both sides. It was just completely ruined as a spectacle by him. "He (Child) won't be under pressure will he? He'll be backing up in Super League next week and we'll get a sheet round telling us all his decisions have been the right ones, I guarantee you that." Agar's rant, which included him saying Child was "100%" the reason why his side lost, was followed by Hull chairperson Kath Hetherington entering the media room, looking to speak to the match commissioner. Well said Agar!!! Tonight's reffing display was the worst I have ever seen, truly awful decisions and he could not even get the signals right. Shocking, absolutely shocking.

The failure to stop the clock also was at times staggering.
