Mcrae says hes not in the mood yet to speak to Godwyn about the sending off jeez he should be right in his face for it

It isn't about the chairman being too "nice" to sack him, it's that we cannot afford to sack him. How many people on the coaching staff?
Mistake was made by giving such a long contract to a mate of Simms.

The only option for the club is to engineer a resignation, but my guess is that McRea is hard faced and will cling on until the end.

Please Salford, don't implode, i've seen it too often, and frankly i'm bored of it.

I really hope a long season won't be our LAST season.

Tactically naive and very predictable. It's really not good enough for Super League.

One of the Sky commentators hit the nail on the head today.

He said atleast Salford can be proud of one thing (before Godwin's little "incident" that is) they've been a clean and fair team giving away very few penalties.

That to me just shows that there's no hunger or passion, which stems from the poor coaching. We just seem to be too tame and give the opposition way too much respect. All other teams are in your face and pushing for mistakes, we sit back and watch with puppy dog eyes. Mr Wilkinson is a charming, polite person but if that's how the team come across we'll never get anywhere.

We need now a coach with a fierce bite and some attitude to push our lads and make other teams scared of us. Without this edge they'll be even more tonkings coming our way.

Haven't we got one place untaken in the squad? That could help go towards it.

There's no way McRae will walk. If JW and co haven't got the balls to sack him say hello to another disappointing season and goodbye to a franchise place.

AS I SAID BEFORE IF MCRAE WENT,BUT I DON'T THINK FOR ONE SECOND HE WILL,NO COACH WORTH HIS SALT
WOULD COME IN IF SIMMS WAS THERE,AND HE IS FIREPROOF.CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME,ARE WE THE ONLY CLUB
WITH A FOOTBALL MANAGER,

Maybe it was an over-reaction to being caned by the refs in the friendlies? Alibert was never going to be as picky as Child so we could have pushed it a bit more but sometimes we can't win. given that they scored off pretty much every penalty i don't think giving more of them away would have been a good thing

People keep saying he won't get sacked because we can't afford to pay him off.

Isn't this the last year of his contract though?

Surely Wilky and co can afford to pay off the last 10 months off his contract. If not then either he's earning a fortune or the club's skint.

There look to be big problems with your lot, from a coach who is clearly past it and a Football Director (who does what exactly?) who both appear bomb-proof.

I don't particularly rate a good number of your signings either, I think a new coach would get a lot more out of them than McRae though.

[iOur head-coach needs to install some passion and pride into the whole squad sooner rather than later.

In the past we have had players like Alker and Littler who would put there bodys on the line sadly yesterday down in Wales not one single player stood out in my eyes.

SACK THE COACH ? Well on that one all I can say if this was football Mr McRae would have been clearing his office this morning for sure.

Next up the visit of the mighty St Helens.

Can we beat them -- Of course we can.

The players are seasoned pros and all that is need now is for our coaching staff to make them believe in themselves.

RANT OVER

Doomed, Doomed your all Doomed.!!!!!

What was almost as embarrasing was that they went almost 100 meters in that set of 6 as well...outrageous stuff by us not being ready for that as well as their numerous short kick offs.

Straight and to the point post, totally agree.

Maybe we could tap up Putrill on Friday night!!!!! On a serious note.

Since We have a certain Mr Phil Bailey on the books, who doesn't seem to be earning his coin as a player, maybe we could use his much publicised coaching/mentoring skills to improve our forward pack. It maybe a little American Football or Rugby Union type thinking, but would a forwards coach be such a bad thing?
