What annoyed me even more as well was that people felt the need to sing Coley songs over and over for an extended period of time when we could have still been getting behind the team which we eventually did in the last 10 minutes of the game.

Coley is a tw@ but he gave as good as he got last night. I actually like it when players give a little bit back to the fans like that (in the same way that Palaeaasina was laughing and gave a bit of applause when people were singing "You're supposed to be in jail"icon_wink.gif. You need a few villain type characters and disliked players when you play against other teams that you can give a bit of abuse when you play them, although I think the song is slightly OTT and there are plenty of other ways you can take the pi$$ out of players in songs.

what is the funniest thing is the idiots singing about Coley shouldn`t waste their efforts on an oppositon player, who are they there for?

i dont know what game you was at then because if you ask me the salford songs was going start to finish!!! the reason why people get ed off is when it was 16-6 wilshire does his normal kick off then as soon as it goes to 22-6 he tries then 10 metre kick and the question is why dint he do it earlier when we was still in the game... and if you look over the past couple of years how many super league players have been let off with jail terms eg pryce,reardon,feka and etc.... how many salford players get in that situation none so therefore the players deserve the stick that they get from the fans of rugby league!!

I agree with this post right up until the word game, from there on I think it's in very bad taste, yes we can show we don't like him but not by wishing him dead.

As soon as the Coley songs came out I knew the game was over for us. Our moment had passed and Wigan were on their way to cementing their spot in the semi's.

Whilst it appears some people are taking the aforementioned chant to serious, it like all chants, needs to be taken with a pinch of salt. Coley gave just as much as he got last night and both parties provoked each other. I would have expected more from a "professional" sportsman.

Nobody there last night genuinely wants Andy Coley to die and it's unfortunate that his name fits into such a chant. You've got to look at it as a rap song, rappers dont intend to diss or offend people but if their name fits into a line it goes in.

Forget it and move on, to have 4 pages on the subject is boring and over the top. I'd rather look at the fact that we took superb numbers to the JJB (whoever said 1200 needs to go back to school) and made an absolute racket.

This person started the same topic on the Wigan forum. Seems more likely that the said person his a Wigan supporter and should return to that forum rather than seeking to stir up trouble here.

The self righteous supporters from other clubs should perhaps take a little time out to think what Coley could have done to engender such antipathy. Other players such as Hodgson, Haggerty and Korkidas left the club and are not held in the same low regard as Coley.

It may well be the case that others from the squad of 2007 just played out their time until the season was over. Sadly, for Coley he made it pretty clear from his on field demeanour that that was what he was doing.

His in action was a significant contribution to the relegation of the club that year and who knows where that may have led to. Thank god we now have franchising and such selfish actions of players can't relegate a team. There were no consequences for Coley for his abject, disinterested performances but there were for the club. At least now if such a situation was ever to happen again such a player's contract could be terminated immediately. Instead of hanging on to him in the vain hope that he might have sufficient moral fibre to see out his contract in a professional manner.

Disgusting behaviour from small minded idiots.

impeccable timing as well after a family bereavement last week for the coley family....

Some people really need to get a life . The chants may have been OTT but a LOT of Salford fans still bear a great deal of ill feeling towards Coley for his enexcusable behaviour after years of great service at our club. If he'd have left as Hodgy, Korky etc did he would have left as arguably one of our greatest players of the last 20-30 years. Instead, he very nearly ruined our club along with others (Robinson etc) therefore in my eyes he is a complete and utter . Everyone knows that the chant is not meant literally but it is merely a way of showing how strongly some fans feel. FWIW, I would have preferred those fans to save their energy to back the team but each to their own. But for people to come on here ranting as they are is quite frankly pathetic.

They are words and words only. Do these holier-than-thou fans have the same opinion about players who perform acts of thuggery on a Rugby field? No, I thought not as it's all done in the heat of the moment therfore a few punches here and there are acceptable. Surely that's setting more of a bad example to youngsters in the crowd than swearing?

[i'Great Britains waterboy'[/i is a much better chant than 'die die coley.'

coley is just a judas scum who deserves everything he gets ,i cannot beleive some people are sticking up for him ,

coley needs to show salford some respect as it was us that got him out of playing for swinton, if it wasnt for us he would never have even played super league, anyway i wonder which club he will be a next year cause i very much doubt wigan will keep him on !!

I doubt that very much. Coley undoubtedly has talent as we saw at times when he played for us - his work ethic is obviously questionable though. If we hadn't signed him from Swinton somebody else would have eventually.

The self righteous Wigan fans, people who support a Club that cheated to avoid relegation, have breeched the salary cap three times that we are aware, how many more times did that not get caught. whoes coach can tap up a player whilst on international water carrying in Australia. A club that with only one song "bang bang bang........
Coley took a wage for a year from our club and just didn't turn up for most games, he caused disruption in the camp and was a catalast in our relegation, Wigan are cheats is a fact now lets look forward to next week and hopefully a fair ref, just hope Coley breaks a leg in training

no chance his knees were both a mess we sorted his knees out trust me he wouldnt of been a super league player now !!!!
