Millward to be Mcrea's assistant?

Quote: theredshed "Even harder than the England Football Manager's Job because Salford fans are even less realistic. (Think this is what Mr Mcrae was getting at during an interview for the BBC Sport website)
Well imo Salford is a bit of a pandoras box of issues which you are battling against
We are a potential big club trapped in the mentality of small clubs body, our fan base has took such a hammering over the years with promises, then failure more promises and more failure its hard for us fans and the club to build a “winning mentality” and increase attendances. The players and coaches Im sure sometimes forget they are employed by one of the top 14 clubs in the country because
1) our profile in the city and the area always being put down as “sorry salford” ect
2) where we currently play tucked away in weaste they can mooch around manchester just like a face in the crowd and not be recognised like they would if they played for wigan for example

The club don’t have a lot of money so spend so sometimes it’s a “make do attitude” or just “do enough” when it comes to websites, shops rather than pushing back the barriers and seeing when we go on what we have.

Its not all bad tho…

It seems the Harrison years we have been able to improve our youth system down to the rugby genius being involved and off the field with the new stadium right next to the motorway with nowhere to hide around the corner after 10 long years people are beginning to take notice and want to be part of it, the new internet shop will hopefully soon be backed up with a new official website that runs a bit quicker add the fact the facebook and twitter accounts are going great guns with news exclusives we are targeting new audiences all the time
Our community projects are doing very well in the community spreading the word and touching new potential fans something that until recently haven’t really heard of .

On and Off the field we are on the cusp of something, the leap from small club also ran to main competitor big club is a large one and the club need to be prepared both on and off the field for the potential avalanche of new support when “old fans and new fans” wake up to where salford city reds are and where they are going.
This will bring expectation and excitement which everyone within the club will need to embrace and not let sufficate, its improved 100% on the late 90s early 00 both on and off and they should be applauded for that but we need to go up another level both on and off the field if we are to compete at super league level.

You’d hope Millward/Mcrae can use their experience coaching higher profile clubs to turn the juggernaut which is salford city reds around and make them a force on the field which makes the job of the field a little bit easier, all it needs is a cup final or a season of winning more than you lose and this club will take off in its new stadium .
