No

While we will all feel sorry for Ian Millwards tragic loss last year, and accept that he is pally with Sean Long, that is no reason for us to give him a job. How many times on this forum have we heard complaints about the past regime giving jobs for the wrong reasons, and keeping people in jobs that they were not upto. We have a new owner, with high ambition who has already proven he's not interested in the soft option, but is looking to strive as quickly as possible to bring success to the club. I can't believe anyone could seriously consider Millward. Apart from Saints (a good few years ago) his record since is abysmal. So once again, no thank you.

Well I did mention last week that he is the oldest coach in SL but if we take on either of the Brians then we will have the pleasure. Not for me IM - dont forget too his big pal (Lance Todds mate) has just left the club.

When is the Dr back from Dubai?

The RL mole just tweeted

"@RLW_Mole: Moley's UK spies tell me poor Ian Millward has been sacked at Cas, while Brian Noble will get the Salford job. Brian Smith out of running"

Interesting. ...

So get on with it Doctor !!

I'd guess that he's been meeting with Smith in Dubai and when he's back there will be a big announcement.
Think they might wait unt after the Hull game as its a hiding to nothing, use the CC away game as a training exercise and then its the Docs but brand/club relaunch agaibst Cas and hopefully a big crowd and winnable game.

I've gone beyond trying to guess now. All this hanging around is breeding a bit of negativity around the Club from fans and impatient journos who want something new to write about. With an absence of news they seem to be sliding down the negative vibe route as they become frustrated too. See Barkers double effort today as an example. One article suggesting Fages wont get a shout with a new coach along with Longy going (Although this is a fair article imo and highlights something that I thought about myself) The other article rolls out mcRae with his usual brand of subdued praise followed by reeling it in in favour of a nice dose of negativity.

Just wish that the Club would get on with it.

They seek him here,
They seek him there,
Those Devils seek him everywhere.

Just where is he ?

Perhaps Dr Nocash is finding it harder then he thought to raise finance.

You might be right mate. Worrying times these.

The MEN has said today that the Dr may not even be back before the Hull game so Iam afraid it is going to linger on.Not good PR to be honest

What good PR are you expecting ? Appointing the right coach is more important than PR over the coming years.
If you are the Leigh follower I think you are shouldn't you be 'bigging up' Ian Millward.You know,the latest good Englist Prop,Chris Hill,nurtured at Leigh by IM.How he gives youth a chance.How his BBC punditry will keep Salford in the news with the television watchers.How is silverware record is as good as Nobles.How he has experience in the NRL and Noble doesn't.His signings from overseas.
Or don't you Leigh people want to see him at Salford ?
rlI didn't know this - from his local paper back in Australiarl

Seems some rugby league people rate him.

I think whilst as frustrating as it is, the doc has stuck to his words here. Firstly he stated Alan Hunte would be given a fair crack of the whip - and he's had 6 games in charge W1 D1 L4 (albeit without his own signings) so far. Secondly, all along he stated he wants the right man for the job as its a massive decision - it has become apparent that he is weighing up all options - which makes me think it might not be Nobel after all
