I don't think he would have come for Simms,do you.I sincerely hope he stays at the club for a long time,but If goes

I have become cynical and sceptical since viewing this forum but a few things do still trouble me.
When,for example,will Phil Veivers receive some praise when reports last year,at the time he 'filled in' as head coach he received praise from the players,including DJ ? Or is he just using Salford as a stepping stone ?
As lots of ingoings and outgoings from clubs are arranged sometimes many months in advance,why is it that Steve Simms is not given any credit for good people arriving at the club ?
With the,as yet,unappreciated Phil Veivers having spend a great deal of time under the coaching tutelage of Brian Noble,perhaps Sean Long sought advice from Noble and decided working alongside PV was a good idea.
I don't know the reasons for SL to leave an international tour but the last I read
rlHERErl suggests he may rate Brian Noble.
Anyway,I now know that all the good at the club was done by Matt Parish,who was at the club for a number of weeks only and planned long term,and everything else is not worth bothering with as nothing is planned but only due to serendipity and is only temporary.
