My favourite part of the Coley chanting was the fact it took the majorty of your support half an hour to realise it had been Paul Prescott you were booing everytime he got the ball

They do look similar form a distance though.

As for Coley i just wish we could play Salford every week! He's had 2 outstanding preformences against you now.

he pointed his hands to a shirt when they sang it to say this is what you are missing.

Don't make excuses for them mate...Especially extremely random ones.

To get this into perspective.... I don't think anybody actually wants him to die... and he knows that too. He will know he let the fans of Salford down and the Salford fans can't forget that. Maybe it is a little harsh... but perhaps it's the only way to get across how strongly some fans feel about his last season in a Salford shirt.

Andy Coley is great guy and we should all be grateful for the professionalism he showed in 2007.

I understand he's out of contract at the end of the season and hopefully he will be treated by Wigan appropriately.

Cant't you just "boo"? No justification for that chant whatsoever.

reds.originalreddevils.com/2004/ ... year-deal/ Coley turned down lucrative offers back in 2004 to stay with Salford for another three years. He showed loyalty to Salford back then and couldn't be blamed for taking up a very good financial and on field opportunity in 2008 for what is a short career. His decision to accept this last chance offer and the fact he might have had a poor 2007 season does not warrent Salford supporters singing songs that are willing him to die. It's pathetic.

Great numbers from Salford tonight, let's just see how many of these gloryhunters having the cheek to sing "we'll never die" and "Salford 'til I die" come back next week!

As for Coley, think the bloke is a complete C[size.[/sizeock, a few fans singing abusive songs is no reason to purposely provoke a large number of away fans, he knew it was tense cup game against a team who's fans dislike him to say the least, him pointing at his shirt etc could easily have caused problems, grow a pair of balls and take the abuse you are bound to recieve for behayving like a p[size.[/sizerick whilst you were at our club.

All together now...Die, Die...

Yes the chant was uncalled for, but lets see how you would feel if one of your players decided that because he knew he was going to another club he would put no effort in for a full season.
Remember we got relegated that year and could quite easily have not got back into SL.
Coley is a wan*er is a much more apt chant.
Boo where do you think we are, in a pantomine.

The chant was just that. Heat of the moment stuff thats all!

He's a fu[ic[/iking w[ia[/inker end of! Playing for a team who once dominated this game, where he gets off pointing at his shirt now makes me laugh, he may as well have a swinton shirt on.

yes you are right he did turn down offers at that time, the thing is, many salford fans havent got two bad words to say about michael korkidas or david hodgson who left the club with a bit of dignity and played for us untill the end of the season and still put the effort in.

i have no problems with any player signin a contract with another club to better their career but when you sign a contract with another club and the first thing your own club knows about it is a press release from the other club ( ie wigan) saying such a player has signed a 2 year contract with them. i think you could understand our anger

plus when you see coley playing like he did tonight and indeed the time at the willows it makes you think why didnt he play like that for us in 2007

in his time coley was a great servent to our club but the way he left us was a complete insult to us, the fans, the club, and the game and for this HE DESERVES TO DIE A SLOW AND PAINFULL DEATH

WE'LL BE WALKING ROUND THE WILLOWS WITH HIS HEAD (ON A STICK)

I watched Andy Coley closely last night and in my opinion he should have not have reacted in the manor he did despite a lot of provication/banter from a small minority of Reds fans.

A true pro would have just laughed it off but he chose to insight the Salford fans and in my book he should this morning be embarrassed by his actions.




Footnote: Andy Coley is no better now than he was when he was at the Willows he is just surrounded by better players in my eyes he did not do anything special last night, he still gives away plenty of penalties and he's still too slow at the tackle.

Here's hoping next Friday on the return trip Andy Coley just gets on with what Wigan pay him for and does not let himself down again in the manor he did last night.
