Very well put ..RW.. I totally agree

ITS LIGHTER ON THE BACK POCKET

PR, please tell me which of the 4 things listed below Malcolm Alker has done to you. ). Has he made mistakes? (Jacksonville). Yes, show me a human being that hasn't. However, if the best you can come up with to describe him is "he's been a loyal servant" then I think you're being a tincy wincy bit harsh. IMO, Malc has been as good as we've had in the last 20 years and as fans we should appreciate the MANY great performances that Malc has given us over the years and not try to belittle his status amongst Salford's greatest players. He has stood out head and shoulders above the vast majority of his team-mates over his career at Salford and his longevity, passion, commitment etc etc is good enough for me to (in my own little world) give him "legendary" status .

Now (rant over), whether he can cut it at the top level in coaching is another matter. He should certainly command respect from other players and his knowledge of the game should be up there with the best of them. However, being a good/great player doesn't necessarily equate to being a good/great Coach/Manager (Bryan Robson anyone?). I think he deserves a chance though and if it doesn't work out then we should thank Malc for years of great service and wish him all the best in his future career. If it does work out I'll be more than chuffed as Malc is part of the Salford family and it would be fantastic to see him stay at the club.

Holding off on this topic for a while however a few choice opinions thrown in has caused me to add my two penneth worth Love him or hate him, 163 consecutive appearances should make Stuart Littler a Salford legend in anyone's book :Others/NA.JPG
