| He just likes to be controversial about whichever team happens to be in the news most at the time. That keeps his own profile up, whether warranted or not. Like the lady says, just ignore him.

| I'm afraid you Salford fans are wrong and Mr Schofield's constant criticisms of the Red Devils have proved to be spot on.
Garry called it correctly months ago about this 3rd rate Salford side.
You are a club that's sinking fast. Relegation could well be looming...

You are Garry Schofield and I claim my five pounds.

| Quote: Bruce_Forsyth "What is it with this bloke? Is he really anti-Salford?
He totally slaughtered your club from top to bottom in his column in a certain national newspaper after St Helens thrashed you and in the same paper just the other day he was giving you yet more stick.
He was bigging up Castleford and comparing them to Salford, saying Cas were a 'better team, bigger club and will certainly finish above Salford this season'.'"
He wasn't wrong about the Castleford comparison!

| Schofield was having a right go at Salford in today's Star on Sunday.
For those who didn't see it he slated your performance against Wigan whilst bigging them up and then dismissed Salford as 'dads army'.

| Detracts from my view of the bloke.
He was a tremendous player,and now he's just a fat hack trying to be controversial.

It's nothing new.
He has a personal crusade to continue, the reasons have been mentioned plenty on here. The guy is just embarrassing now.

Exactly - The fact he is writing for a joke rag like the Star tells you all you need to know.
Because you are this season's story, you will always attract opinion from various angles, but Schofield is a cock and should be ignored.

| Unfortunately he's right though. After the amount of publicity the chairman has created the team are looking over their shoulders at Bradford

I would say that is a fair viewpoint though. Some poor decisions made in the off season bringing in players like Meli and Morley.
Should be a different story for Salford next year.

| It's nice to see he has had a change of attitude towards us (Cas). He had a reputation of being anti-Cas and I was near him at the Fev - Cas cup tie a couple of years back, when he was cheering Fev on to the hilt. If he wanted to cheer them on, to be fair that's his perogative, but some of the venom that came our way was totally uncalled for. Then again there were a couple of other well known RL figures and they adopted the same attitude.
He comes across to me as very embittered towards certain aspects of the modern game, and it is also evident that he does not like Aussie coaches, coaching over here. Maybe the fact that we are now coached by an old international team mate and friend of his, has something to do with his new attitude towards us. Incidentally his son also played with us in the second team for a while but never made it. I don't know whether that had a bearing on his previous enmity towards us, as I never could understand it.
I suppose with the new owner pouring money into your club, it now makes you a new target for him. As I have said in a previous post Dr MK, coming into our game cannot possibly be anything but good for it, but unfortunately jealousy is a funny thing, and many don't see it that way.

You have had some bad advice so far. Unfortunately RL is awash with not just agents but 'middlemen' that will get teams to sign players on at inflated prices, not for the good of the club, but for the benefit of themselves. We had the problem big style at Cas with nearly all overseas players being signed from the same agent, who just happened to be a big mate and associate of the club employee who was charged with the task of recommending them.

| What is "The Star on Sunday"? It is not a publication with which I am familiar. Is it rather like various unpleasant newspapers, calling themselves "The Mail on Sunday" and equally unimaginative things? I would suggest you stop buying it and reading it.

| I see Meli and Morley's names mentioned quite a lot when people are talking about supposed 'bad signings'.
The facts are though that Meli's our leading try scorer (scoring more then double the next player and the only player to break double figures this year) and Morley's our leading metre maker (out of the props).
The question is: Are they really as poor a signing as what people make out?
