The odd mention of a protest tbh I think the fans need to take action on a large scale and try and force some change at the club I can't see people with burning pitch forks etc but summat somewhere needs to be done i.e boycott games or don't turn up for the Leigh friendly etc

Club confirmed it now rlHererl

Shine-a-light Salford. What next?

That tells us all we need to know. Once again the club treat us like e! they don't deserve our money or our support.

I don't know the ins and outs or the who and why's. All I know is that it's incredibly bad timing on so many levels. Pre-season started, new season around the corner. It feels like a bad joke atm. Salford as a Club need to take a long hard look at themselves and ask themselves whether they really do want to make a difference, or stay as an old boys Club with no clue about anything.

I feel we have been the latter for too long and fear the former will never happen.

the statment is rubbish as well from the club website.

"Matt leaves the club in a much stronger position than he found it on the field, with what the club believes to be one of the strongest and most innovative coaching setups in Super League"


are you having a laugh, hes won one game since being at salford! and to tell us nothing more about what happend must show theres something going on behind closed doors at the club.Wilky i know simms is part of your family but for god sake no one wants him at the club, all other managers have left apart from him WHY????

Whilst there was every chance he could have ended up as a dud from a coaching point of view, at least he had the foresight to see what was wrong at the club and try and change it. What's the best we can hope for now? Someone promoted from within or another one of Simms mates (a la Mcrae) who won't rock the boat.

I like us all don’t know the full facts but as the website as stated, perhaps there are genuine personal reasons and nothing more. I know really unlikely but still we just don’t know.

He clearly wasn’t meant to be for us and we now have to move on. I know were all panicking about nobody wanting the job but are you saying there is no one out there who wants a seat at the top table? We are after all a Super League club for the next 3 years, we have a brand new stadium and all the facilities that come with it, a mid-table squad at present so someone, somewhere is already rubbing their hands at the thought of getting a shot at this.

The other thing is, there’s certain comments on social networking sites that seem to imply that he might not be missed as much internally as externally which is the most important thing.

Get Powell in and have Long / Vievers / Hunte as his back room team. I would take that anyday.

I have nothing positive or optimistic to say about salford rlfc and the men who are incharge of running the financial part of it

The bright light at the end of the tunnel was our big chance and it has now passed us by

Think small and you will be small and eventually disappear

I think its finally sunk in

1) Terrible appointment to start with (just speak to people inside the game); surely questions must finally be asked about the people responsible for making these dreadful calls.

2) Pray to god they don't approach Dunemann (again, speak to people inside the game)

3) The really worrying thing: a) if we were dumb enough to overlook credible candidates first time around (Powell, Noble etc), what's the chances of us wising up now?
b) Why would any credible candidate be interested in working for a such a shambolic club?
