Quote: Diavolo Rosso "Nobody seems to know for sure. It's customary for employees of a company to report in to the CEO, but he may have a direct line in to the Board. Either way nobody has made it clear, which demonstrates a lack of clear communication to the fans.

Working on the assumption David Tarry [idoesn't[/i have any oversight on the football side, he clearly has very little involvement with Barton, and doesn't have the job of running the Variety Centre so what exactly [iis[/i he doing?'"


Fair enough. In the private sector that would be the case but not sure in the crazy world of sport where we live! Director of Rugby and whole manner of titles crop up across RL, RU, soccer, cricket etc.

From an outsider looking in Mr Wilkinson has praised Tarry a couple of times in events at the Willows and the papers. So i do tend to go with what he thinking. Not defending anyone and just trying to look at it from outside but maybe its a case of being seen and not heard. I know with my job i quietly go about doing what i do (very well i might add icon_lol.gif ) and dont kick up a fuss.

Variety Centre is ran by other aspects of the Wilkinson family iirc. Taking away rugby side that leaves commercial, community, marketing, media, lottery and the shop. Will our Chief Exec head up those?? We do do some good stuff with these - i get pulled for my lottery quid and recieve a load of stuff email wise about what we do.

Im first to bag the club and have a moan - but do think we get some stuff right and lets not forget that.

Read Moneyball by Michael Lewis. You don't need money to compete, it's about how you approach what you do and get value from the resources you have. Re: Castleford, why do they get bigger gates than us and why are they able to spend more on their playing squad? Castleford has a population of 40k, Salford has a population of 220k.



Because Salford is not a Rugby League Town, simple answer, and i have been watching since 1967, too much apathy within the city, too many people who can not be bothered to do anything and that is the way it will stay. No matter how successful we become 6000 -7000 is possibly the best we will do.

I disagree with that personally Bigpev. Potential for bigger support is there, needs real hard work to turn it around. There are plenty around Irlam and Caddishead who support Wire, why? Because they are succesful(ish) and well marketed.

I dont agree with the "build it and they will come" attitude, as originally mentioned we need a full shake up from top to bottom (i personally am not including JW in that) people in with new ideas.

Quote: Diavolo Rosso "But you don't disagree with my analysis?'"


I do in general mate, yes.

I can't see much difference in where we are now and where we were about 20yrs ago when you (and I) started to follow the club.

The only obvious difference is that now the blame is shared between McRae, Simms, Alker, JAW, et al ..... back then Tarry was the root of all evil.

Maybe your post will mean that he is once again?! Whilst I have nothing against the fella personally, I think you're right about the need for a change at the top.

JAW can't/shouldn't/won't go anywhere, coaches come and go anyway so maybe Tarry needs to be replaced to change our fortunes??

The way you talk pev,we mite as well fold up now,I talk to people who always came, but don't now because they
think the people running the club,are amateurs,you yourself think Mcrae should not be the coach and so do a lot off
other people,yet It looks as If the the board will be having him back so they cannot complain when people keep there
hands in there pocket.'s

The fans, the members, the people there.. from the day I stepped foot onto that field at the AJ Bell Stadium,I knew I would love that club for the rest of my life. "Jackson Hastings".. Worry a little bit every day and in a lifetime you will lose a couple of years. If something is wrong, fix it if you can. But train yourself not to worry. Worry never fixes anything. Mary Hemmingway, US journalist,widow of Ernest Hemmingway (1908-1986) The Stupid Neither Forgive Nor Forget The Naive Forgive And Forget The Wise Forgive But Don't Forget "I am not young enough to know everything" Oscar Wilde Irish Playwright (1854-1900) One likes people much better when they're battered down by a prodigious siege of misfortune than when they triumph. virginia woolf (1882-1941):icons1949_files/4193-180guyguyme2003-msnicons.gif



Tarry was to blame for everything for years but always avoided the bullets, then somehow once Simms came on board, it has been him or a long list of coaches who take the flak, meanwhile Tarry sits in his Ivory tower wrapped in kevlar, whilst the club itself hasn't really advanced.

Something isn't right, as pointed out a long list of nobodys have appeared in challenge cup finals, and the likes of Hudds (perenial cellar dwellers like ourselves) are now top of the league and handing Leeds their bootys at Headingley.

So is the chief exec a success for Salford ? I think the number of years he's been here together with our achievements, somewhere there you'll find the answer.
