Breaking where?

Blinky flip.

Seems harsh on the face of it, but maybe the last few results have been the excuse the management needed to bring in who they wanted originally.

If I was employed by Salford in any capacity I'd be working my nads off as our new management are not messing around.

Not a shock but quicker than thought it would have been.

Hope to God we keep hold if Long

We become more like Chelsea - now we also have an "interim coach"

Any bet's on Longy's future? I'd hope we're keeping him.

It would appear Dr K doesn't do excuses - could his losing horses be the source of the meat now appearing in various burgers?

Perhaps he's the new full back signing.

I can't imagine Long staying either TBH , He was offered coaching duties at Bradford & and I guess will be welcomed with open arms at Langtree Park .
Who would want the Salford Coaching Job under Koukash ?

I can't see them getting rid if there wasn't a ready made replacement already sounded out.

Does anyone know if Simms is doing anything

Seriously wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if with all the connections with NZ and Titans if the new guy comes from one of those avenues.

John Cartwright would do nicely thank you muchly.

Not shocked at the news but a bit surpised at the speed of it. After what has gone on during the close season I think he desreved a bit more of a go at it. Who now though? If Sheens says he isn't intersted until after the world cup then is Noble an option until then?

I see Alan Hunte has been put in charge. Does this mean Long has gone as well?

Unbelievably harsh on Vievers after holding it all together for the last 12 months. The good Doctor may want his own man, someone recommended by Westy, but I certainly hope when the new man comes in he gets time to move things forward. The last thing we need it to become the Chelski of rugby league.

Harsh but inevitable, if not this soon. Leaves the question of who will take us to the end of the season if we are presuming a new long term man will be approached for the start of next season.

Thanks to Veivers for all he has done.

Veivers has maintained his dignity throughout the past 12 difficult months. He can leave with his head held high.

I thought some of the stuff you played last year particularly in the backs was brilliant to watch.

Thought PV would be given longer but my hunch now is that they will bring in Brian McClennan.
