The rest of Rugby league see our once great club as a Joke and I have heard that half the current squad can't wait to get away and if we do get relegated their wish will happen. I have not heard any of them say what a fantastic organisation to be apart of and I agree. For Gods sake Marwan shut up you are destroying us.

Quote: rubber duckie "He did it because he cares.'"


I believe it really is as simple as that. No agenda because of some friendship with Harris which nobody even knows if they are friends.

He simply doesn't like seeing the sport looking bad and the things coming out from Salford and the owner don't exactly make for the best reading. For all we know as well he has had private discussions with Koukash in past.

Whilst he was critical of Koukash, he didn't say anything insulting and he didn't try and mention any rumour he might've heard.

Instead of viewing it as an attack on him, Koukash should view it as advice. However I doubt he'll do that.

Dr Kockrash got the rounds of the kitchen from Mac

At the end of the day Mac only said what probably every RL player,coach,administrator,owner,fan or journalist wanted to say to him

Dr Kockrash can do whatever he chooses in regards to how he runs "HIS" club as he has put his money where his big mouth is,but I'll bet that there's plenty more 5hit to come out of the club before all this furor dies down

Kockrash needs to take a step back and to employ a coaching team that he trusts enough to stay out of the coaching domain

He clearly didn't trust Nobby or Harris to run things their way so lets see how he leaves his golden boy Sheens to turn his club around,sadly i can't see this working either

When Sheen leaves and Harris gets sacked, who would take on the role? Has the Doc burnt all the bridges?

McDermott doesn’t often speak out in this manner – only once before have I heard him talk with such passion about a club that wasn’t Leeds and that was last year when he was asked if he believed RL in London was viable after the terrible season that the Broncos had had.

Sometimes I think the BMcD needs a little more ‘media training’ as he can come across as brash and standoffish at times but he wears his heart on his sleeve and is massively passionate about Rugby League.

IMO he has said what he said because he cares about what is happening at Salford and the road that they are currently on. He has worked with several of the current Salford squad and knows some of them on a personal level so may have an insight it what is going on behind closed doors.

Whether or not he should have said anything in the public eye is debatable but one thing is for sure and that is that he is right. The “Good Dr” is making the once great institution that is Salford RL a bit of a comedic enterprise.

Money IS the answer but it needs to be invested in the right way and in the right places. It is no coincidence that the top three clubs in SL are also the three clubs that have the best youth systems in place. If Marwan is serious about his involvement in RL then, as has already been stated, he needs to play the ‘long game’ and stop believing that RL is the same as soccer i.e. if you throw enough cash at it you’ll get instant success.

What I can't understand is why the players chose this particular game to effectively down tools. Did something happen in the week leading up to the game that was perhaps seen as a final straw for the players? Since Hull KR away we had won both our games, coming back from 12 and 14 points behind respectively. Yet the way McDermott has spoken after the game it was almost as if he knew what was going to happen before the game had even kicked off.
