Another brilliant MEN column from Dr Koukash this week. www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/ ... ed-9462925 Amongst other things, the fact Bobbie Goulding will shortly be given a job is mentioned. Goulding has confirmed this himself on social media tonight. Great addition to the club!

What's wrong Neil nothing negative you can think of?

Maybe Mario thinks it is negative.

I love Bobbie to bits, but he's the RL equivalent of Gazza. In what capacity is his arrival at Salford going to be beneficial to anyone?

Brilliant

MEN

Oxymoron

Should make booking a taxi to and from the stadium a bit different.

To be fair, we've got a decent track record when giving former troubled players off-field roles. Long has done okay for himself, and Gleeson is proving to be very good in his new role. BG seems to have turned his life around and I think he can provide something to current players. The trouble with a lot of RL fans is that once an opinion is formulated it can't possibly be changed.

I just wait for Gareth Hock returning as anger management consultant!

I said we had a decent record, not that we're miracle workers!

I cant make any sense of this appointment whatsoever. What capacity is Goulding even coming on board in? I thought Iestyn had a bad CV when he was offered the head coach position, but Bobbie Goulding' is even worse.

Would any of Leeds, Saints, Wigan or Warrington make this appointment? No they wouldn't.

Top Twitter bantz innit. Seems to be the main qualification we're looking for these days.

Just had a look at Bobbie Gouldings Twitter page and some of the retweets from Salford fans are cringeworthy. These new-age fans we've got, seem to think the pre requisite of a good coach is one that a) use to play for Salford, b) tweets A LOT and c) replies to tweets A LOT.

It's actually embarrassing. I haven't seen one tweet mention what Bobbie Goulding will bring to our club other than "passion" and we all know passion alone will win us the Super League wont it.

It just sounds like another lunatic joining the asylum.

What position/roll is he actually joining the club to take up?

I find it hard to believe that if we are looking at Sheens coming on board in a position of rugby manager that he would not have been consulted on Gouldings appointment.

RL has too much of a tradition of jobs for the old boys, for me it is one of the reasons such a brilliant game as ours is run in such an archaic way.

Blimey!

Give the fella a chance.

I'm an 'Old time' fan rather than a 'new age' fan. I didn't realise we had any of those...Anyway...

I don't understand why we as longtime sufferers should knock the enthusiasm of any of our own support, however misguided it may be. Christ! we're almost on the endangered list we're that rare, and long term sufferers like us are even rarer. I'm not sure what Goulding could bring to the table in all honesty, but writing him off before we even know what he's being appointed to seems harsh to me.

If you're embarrassed by the Salford fans offering encouragement to someone, maybe avoid social media for a bit. I'm sure it wont be long before the traditional doom and gloom returns and we'll feel a lot more comfortable measuring who's ennui is longer in our cosy forum melancholy.

FFS get a grip.

kicking coach i believe !!!!
