"My experience of coaching London means I know what it's like being on the end of bad scorelines and I know that Salford's players are not that bad. To concede 70 points you usually ask questions of the players but, on this occasion, Marwan Koukash needs to stand up and apologise to everybody.

"It embarrasses me to be involved in rugby league when there is an owner of a club conducting himself how he is - saying what he wants, when he wants and how he wants. He needs to realise that that is not how to lead a club.

"That group of players are not that bad and what we saw out there was a completely demoralised, shot group of players who lack confidence. It's not because they have had bad coaching or have bad conditions but they are demoralised by what goes on off of the field.

"I wouldn't want to be led by a person who is erratic and says the things he does about his own group of players - that (the scoreline) is absolutely his fault. There are some good people in that team who don't give up that easy so there are questions to be answered and lessons on leadership to be learned by the owner."

Koukash on Twitter saying "McDermott should keep his mouth shut"

The irony of him saying someone should keep their mouth shut. Should practise what he preaches.

Well said Brian Mac!

It's about time somebody did or nothing will change at Salford.

Trololololol

mcdermott has gone up in my estimation by about 500%. Every body has thought this for a long time but Brian is the first high profile RL man to be brave enough to say it. Marwans twitter response makes it even worse, would he say it to BM's face?

Totally agree with everything McDermott says.

You do have to wonder when the mad Doctor will finally admit that his interference/antics/ etc has had a negative effect on Salford. Given how quick he is to blame and offload players.

I thought good old Brian summed it up pretty well.

Well said BM. Had the guts to say what everyone's been thinking.

Shades of Massimo Cellino

Good on Mac! What a legend!

That bloke is a f*ucking numpty. About time somebody said it.

I think I have to agree with BMcD on this occasion.

Salford were woeful. They looked like a team that had never met each other before, let alone played together.

On our way out some random bloke said to us “best game I’ve seen in ages” and I thought “really???”.

I thought we played average at best and never really got out of third gear – this isn’t a criticism, we didn’t need to play anywhere near above average.

Salford are a shadow of the team they should be, they have some decent players in their squad. With players leaving and threatening to sue for non-payment of wages, sponsors dropping out left right and centre and winding up petitions being posted against the club, while all the time Koukash is insistent that there isn’t a problem and everyone else is talking bullox.

How could this NOT have an effect on the players and coaching staff?
