If he's not fit for the next month he should be relieved of his duties full stop. Don't want it derailing the season. As someone mentioned earlier never heard of anything similar in sport.

And more importantly , has he not just had 3 or 4 months anyway

And how are you qualified to comment on physiological issues like those listed above? Oh, wait a minute... Ha.

Bloody hell, hope the bloke soon sorts his problems out and gets back to the game and Salford as soon as he feels he can.

Has SKY issued a statement saying they have also let him have time off whilst ill??

or as in my case the bloody horse runs off

Do any fans feel a little guilty or harsh due to some of the chants directed at SM during the opening of the season, if it is a stress related illness?

The big guy should resign and put his family first in my opinion. Enjoying life alive is better then driving yourself into a premature grave.

you sound like my doctor

Getting booed by 500 people in The Shed in a sport that has minimal coverage in the press and living in an area where no one will recognise him. It's hardly Graham Taylor's reign as England manager is it?

The tone of some messages on this link is pathetic.
If the guy is ill let him recover with the fans blessing and support.
Its only a bloody game,for heavens sake.

Wasn't it a bit more then getting booed? Quite personal songs about him if I remember rightly.
