"Alker, who retired at the end of the 2010 season, has been working on the book with Daily Star rugby league writer Julie Stott."

When Malc Alker had his column in the Advertiser he was contacted on a weekly basis and interviewed and asked his opinion on various matters by then Sports Reporter Dave Lawrenson. Sadly the Sports section of the Advertiser has gradually but steadily gone downhill since those days as has the Salford Advertiser in general.

Looking forward to reading it to be honest it will be good to read about "the alker" years at salford, lots of crazyness which us fans dont know about being aired

I wonder if it will talk about all the Charlie parties that certain players used to allegedly partake in?

So after publication and you are a Club Chairman - would you employ him?

Though, to be fair, you could have said the same on the publication of "Longy: Booze, Brawls, Sex and Scandal"

Trust me this book will be a good read for salford fans, from what i know you will learn a lot a bout goings on behind the scenes that you will never know.
Even though for legal purposes no names can be mentioned, which he was contacted and advised about, you will be able to assume who he is talking about.
Malcolms walk away from the club was an absolute scandal and he was being fixed up to leave without pay, i know the full story and those involved but whether or not you will hear about all of it due to legal reasons you will get a good idea about things revolving the termination of his contract.
It will be a great read as rather than partying stories which it will contain stuff there is a lot more about other people connected with the club and goings on etc
Malc is a good honest bloke, who served the club well.
Wilky and simms will be the first to buy and read this book as they will be cacking there pants trust me !!!!!

So in otherwords he's gonna make himself look like a saint and blame everyone else?

No Fungus everyone knows there aint many saints in sport, malc will admit he was no saint and his book will tell you that, but if your referring to him leaving the club please bear in mind Malcolm was settled by a compensation package from the club and was cleared of any wrong doing.
Malc gave a lot for this club and stayed with us through thick and thin and for you too start saying stuff like that is totally wrong, you tell me any player that is the best at any club and has never done anything wrong i would be in shock.

I can't wait to hear his side of the Jacksonville story. Wonder if he's been taking pointers off Suarez and Terry?!

haha jibmeister cant argue with that one

I would never dismiss Alker the player. He was truly awesome and a real salford legend. I am however a bit more dubious about alker off the pitch, but will remain open minded

Would love too see some of you Hard Men say this stuff too Alker's Face, Malc was cleared of any wrongdoing and paid a severance package but yet some on here are happy to still tar him. No doubt some of you will have something to winge about when his book his released. Salford didn't deserve Malc's loyalty simply because some"supporters" don't deserve any loyalty.Oh and for those saying he doesnt acknowledge his mistakes see this
“Rugby’s been a big part of my life, but it has to come to an end for everybody at some point,” says Alker.
“I’ve been with Salford right through my professional career and the club runs right through every vein in my body.
Alker claims to have few regrets when he looks back at his 14-year professional career, but admits that a couple of offers came his way that still have him wondering what might have been. The first came from Bradford after Salford’s 2002 relegation and the second from St George-Illawarra Dragons after Salford finished fifth in 2006.

“I’ve made big decisions – I turned down St George Illawarra. If I’d gone over there I’d have come back a much better player – and I’d have earned more money! – but I decided to stay because I had a young family and a testimonial around the corner. It was at the wrong time for me – a year earlier or a year later could have been the perfect time.

“I also turned down Bradford when Salford got relegated in 2002. Loyalty is one of my very strong points. I believe in seeing through something you’ve started and I wanted to help us get back into Super League.”


There is only 1 snake in the grass at Salford RLFC, ..10 years later he is still slithering around, But don't let that stop you spouting rubbish.

Great Post Cavendish street i couldnt of put it better myself m8 !!!!!

A great shame that he's sinking to this depth,if what you're saying is true.
He'd be better just keeping his head held high by respecting the man who paid his wages.
I hope he doesn't write anything that will lower our opinion of him.
