| Quote MR BOJANGLES="MR BOJANGLES"Considering I was stood in the bar next to this incident I can say with good authority that all of the above is bullox. It was indeed a Rovers fan and his actions deserved a lot more than the few decent digs JR gave back in self defence !!!'"
So which part is bollox then? Apart from the bit about him being an FC fan which I have already accepted i was wrong about? The incident was clearly not Rule's fault but IMO as CEO of our club it's still pretty unprofessional of him to have retaliated. I'm not expecting him to be a saint but it looks very bad.

| Quote berrigans bitch="berrigans bitch"I disagree Kosh, some of the greatest players came from that era, the mentality of the players was possibly more professional, the players were generally semi-pro, however very few drank before games etc, their attitude and dedication and professionalism was greater than a lot of what is displayed today, they had fun yes but there was a time and a place for it.Many xmas days in our house was alchohol free due to the boxing day match.'"
I'm not challenging the qualities or the achievements of the players from that era, but I do doubt that they were more professional than [imost[/i modern SL players. The fact that they may have been more professional than our shower says more about our current crop of underachievers and the loser culture at our club than it does about previous stars TBH.

Fair point, I was indeed only measuring it against our lot

Rovers fan went over to him and to cut a long story short, the conversation changed in seconds from the kid trying to be all matey, matey and dignified in defeat to him becoming abusive. JR offered no-one outside but when the kid lashed out and hit him in the face, JR gave him a few back. I dont think JR can be called unprofessional for acting in self defence, Can you ?

As CEO of the club being down Prinny Ave after a Derby game was unprofessional.

Well it depends, self defence is one thing but 'giving a few back' gives the impression that it was more than self defence. I'm not saying the guy who started it didn't deserve it and I'm not condemning Rule for doing it, but yes I would say it could be seen as unprofessional.

Disagree. Once his club duties are over then the evening is his own time.

| Quote maximo="maximo"I have pretty much backed Agar throughout the season partly due to him having a go with his own squad next year and also due to the board only replacing him with a second rate coach anyway.
I got told some information last night which has changed my mind.
A friend of mine was in Bezier over the weekend as he rocked up to his hotel at 2am sunday morning a big aussie bloke was trying to get in aswell. They ended up chatting and it turned out to be Josh Cordoba's girlfriends brother. Cordoba's girlfriend was staying at the same hotel and he was going to sleep in her room on the floor. My mate asked him where else has he been staying and he replied "the night before i slept on Agar's bedroom floor".
Im only passing on what i was told but if this is thecase then Mr Agar has to go, it is completley unprofessional and sends out the complete wrong message for me. Can you imagine Alex Ferguson letting someone do that I cant. For me its time to get rid of the majority of the coaching staff bar Andy Last.'"
Thats It I have had enough I am not worried about game plans or discipline or even poor signings but thats it someone sleeping on his floor!!!!! Unbelievable!

Because if it was as easy to predict 6 numbers every Saturday and Wednesday night as it was to see how a trip down Princes Av, after a derby game for our CEO would end up, then we would all be loaded.
