| Red John good assessment that. For me Foran was bobbins again today. I hope he's not taking you for a ride regarding wages. His only contribution i saw today was to stand still during a tackle taking place with his arms out like the eagle crest of the Manley Sea Eagles. When will these nailed on signings be confirmed?

| Quote: Red John "Anyone care to talk about that debacle? I'll start.
Poor. Very poor. Too slow in attack and too frail in defence. We don't have many aggressive forwards, and the ones we do have are injured at the moment, leaving us vulnerable down the middle. Warrington's forwards were punching holes on a regular basis which gave their halves plenty of room to dominate. In fact, the only forward we were able to handle effectively was Adrian Morley. Of course, I'm told he would be a "brilliant" signing, so I have to assume by "brilliant", we mean "a bit like Ryan Boyle, really".
As for the bottle throwing, why do we have a tiny handful of bell ends who insist on throwing bottles when we're losing? What does it achieve? Credit to Marwan Koukash for getting in the middle of it.
I guess the most positive aspect of a dismal day was that, according to the Dr, we have four signings "over the line" for next season, and are hopeful of another four to six. I hope some of these are hairy d forwards. Not Adrian Morley though. No thanks.
EDIT
In between starting that and finishing it, some lame brain from Warrington took his hands out of the front of his pants long enough to share some unimaginative thoughts with us. I don't suppose we could ignore him could we? Would it be too difficult?'"
Fair summary of today, ignore the lune who posted previously they are obviously as idiotic as the bottle throwers. Not heard Radio Manchester nor near enough to the incident but it is claimed that Koukash has accused Westwood of throwing the bottle at a Salford fan. If Benny did it stupid git if he didn't same should be said for Koukash (if he accused him of it on radio) Good on him though for going into the crowd to calm things as the guy at the front was getting very irate. Did the bottle thrower stay in the ground as I saw one person who the stewards had been allowed back to his place in the stand?

| As far as I'm concerned, we've over-achieved so far this year. Most pundits and fans had us down for never winning a game all season, and I must admit, I secretly thought it was a possibility too.
Once the Clubs future was confirmed we all new that this season was to be written-off in preparation for next season. So with that thought in mind I'm not too worried by results like these. Most teams will be battered by Wire at their place all season long so the result shouldn't come as a massive shock.

I listened to the interview and Koukash never mentioned any names. He accused a player but didn't name them.

Foran has played well at dummy half over the past few games, but suffered like the rest of the team today by playing in a dominated pack. You're right about his defence though. Maybe the lack of a pre-season is at fault, because he still looks unfit.
The signings will be announced in September or October. The rumours will be announced immediately. Just wait and see.

I didn't see who threw the bottle, but no Salford fan will be surprised to see who was being restrained.
As for the doctor's comments, I think he said [ihe was told[/i a Warrington player had thrown a bottle. He didn't make the accusation directly. Perhaps a little unwise, but no great harm done. He actually achieved the near impossible today and managed to go up even higher in my estimation by getting amongst the fans when some of them were behaving like they'd missed a feed or something.

| The fact that most if not all of us had us down for a tanning on the prediction league speaks volumes.
Today does make me wonder if the team wrote the game off in favour of a good performance a week tomorrow. I do think that Griffin not being available was a hammer blow to any hope of a credible score as he seems to me to be the forwards catalyst.
Was very encouraged to hear the Doc say that 4 of the signings have already done so and that the others aren't that far away, wonder who then seeing as he said that he will announce them at the end of the season the Comic this week makes wild unfounded speculation about next.
If anyone was in any doubt about how genuine he was, about his commitment and about him being a good egg then todays actions for me take the Doc to a new level.

No. Bespectacled and old enough to know better.

| Thought the Doc was restrained in the interview, you could tell he was itching to go further with what he said. He was incredibly complimentary towards the fans and even if only half of what he says comes true we are in for a much happier future and we expected at the turn of the year.
Think perspective is needed as to what the club has to work with, as they say you can't polish a turd.

Thanks Red John. I've only seen him twice to be fair and we all know players have off days. Good luck for the rest of the season.

| Pity some of our fans chose to blurt out what they 'heard' happen rather than what actually happened.
