If Theo can't learn from Goulding he will not learn at all I am glad he is on the coaching staff.

An appointment that raised an eyebrow as I wouldn't want BG any where near Widnes - but it's right you should wait and see how he does before having a go.

His track record isn't great in RL even with the French national team which people seem to mention, he pipes on about wanting a job as head of youth and has been extremely critical of HofY Phil Finney at Widnes about his role (which is graded outstanding).

Will be very interesting to see how he does.

Everyone's got an opinion, some will differ from others. Life, innit?

As it is, I can't see what he'd bring and agree with JRG. It just doesn't look like a decent appointment to me. But hey ho, we shall see.

I'm willing to see what role BG gets and give him a chance in it before I cast judgement. If it's as some sort of attacking coach then I can only see where his skills and knowledge could be a huge influence on the likes of Theo (for as long as we have him!). If he's being brought in as Social Secretary we're fooked!

As for the plebs out on Tw@tter it's embarrassing. I follow half a dozen people on there, the likes of Stephen Fry, David Lloyd, Jonathan Agnew... people that have something interesting to share with the rest of the world. Seems like the majority of people/r*tards use it to become "cyber friends" with Z list celebs and spout nonsense all day!

Maybe at 37 im jus not wiv it innit lyk da kids ov 2day?!

I agree with The Butcher. Give him a chance. Sean Long was a troubled guy, we took him on and he proved that he could improve our attacking game. So much so that Saints have taken him on. Goulding was a brilliant scrum half. He played at Wembley when we beat the Aussies in the 'Sean Edwards' test match. I think he 'could' have a lot to offer. Why not wait and see?

Hope it works out. He will certainly bring some enthusiasm to the club.

Sure he's not back playing ? Fages replacement ?

Would you put it past the mad Dr ?

Not just your fans, a few weeks ago he was linked to FC basically begging for the job on Twitter. People were messaging the club & all sorts thinking he'd be a good addition.

He was begging Widnes for job not so long ago. What happened to him at barrow ?

3 International or ex International Managers at the club! Aussie, Welsh & France what you moaning about. Add Nobby and you have a full house.

Another silly move from the Dr that has disaster written all over it. Ticking time bomb.

Insightful.

Priceless input, keep up the excellent work.

where can I get one of these mystical wonderful crystal ball that other supporters have?

Are you really this naive? You think everything is okay at Salford and the club is well run? You don't think there is even a possibility that the rumours about Salford could all be true?

Employing Bobbie is like making Paul Gascoigne activities coordinator at a rehab centre. It won't end well and you know it.

Goulding in,Locke out.
Unconnected events,obviously, but hardly a step forward either way.
