 The following season proved a different matter however as Agana struck up an immediate striking partnership with new signing Brian Deane.During the 1989–90 season he scored 24 goals in 46 appearances which, along with a similar tally from his striker partner Deane helped United win promotion from the Second Division at the first time of asking, with Agana being named the fans player of the year.The following season proved to be more of the same, with United gaining back to back promotions to take them into the then Division One thanks in part once more to Agana's goals, including a brace in the 5–2 victory at Leicester City that clinched promotion.
