Sniffing & glue springs to mind!!!

I thought I'd give McRae a helping hand with his post-match comments

any slug comments been made in media yet tonight?

Not yet but no doubt it'll b "we're a new side & need time to gel"!!

Sky report' I accept blame for the performance'...,.. To right you should do it's your team you tactics. Do something decent and walk!!!!!! NOW

Well I got what I wanted but even I did not expect a performance as woeful as that.
If Mr Wilkinson does not get rid now then he seriously needs his head examining.
A new coach in and we might just might win at Wakefield, the extra optimism will bring in the fans against Leeds and hopefully things then move on from there.
Keep it as it is then it will be defeat next week and around 2k Salford fans who are still mad enough will turn up against Leeds.
That number slowly dropping as the season goes on.
As a business man Wilky must see how much the performances on the pitch are damaging his club.
If we finish bottom then that is it we would be out.
No improvement in 3 years, decreasing fan base 2 huge points in the franchise criteria.
A shiny new stadium wont save us either.
Please Mr Wilkinson for the sake of the club we all love do something now.

Agreed, Ratchford has a good game for me along with a few other players (Nero, Wild, Spencer & Jewitt) but as a team it was a complete sham! I really don't understand what's going wrong! The two worst players by a country mile tonight were Holdsworth and Patten, our so-called star men. Lets hope training is intense this week and we see a different performance at Wakefield otherwise it's the end even so early on in the season.

Star men???? Laughing all way to the bank that comedy duo

Utterly dejected again, I'm not saying we should be beating Saints or anything but the performance served up tonight was miserable. As much as SM has to come in for A LOT of stick, it seems that very few players are playing with any desire or hunger out there at the minute and I think it's probably a bit lazy to assume that if McRae is indeed sacked then everything will be rosy.

We have the makings of a decent side for sure, and we are a lot better than what we're showing right now but I still think if someone new comes in he's got a hell of a job to sort out this side's deficiencies.

young jack was up for the cause tonight i thought along with ratch and nero,the "general" has deffo looked a bit out of place in our first 2 games!!

A few points i noticed about Salford’s team this year after 5 games.

1. we’re not fit enough we had players that were pulling up with cramp and not tracking back to tackle, were totally out of shape.

2. were not tough enough, how can you play a game and expect to win when we have players being almost bullied out of the match.

3. we don't defend as a unit, again an old school boy error we have players coming out of the line to early leave huge gaps in the middle of the field and this is what Saints exploited.

4. We don't play tight enough. in the majority of tonight’s game we had players bunching up totally out of position leaving others totally on their own, I remember the defensive game we played when Karl was coach we were spaced out evenly an every player playing for the opposition were covered by at least two Salford defenders, if we had a player that was player was being caught out on the overlap we had others sliding over covering, that totally went when McRea came.

5. to may individuals who can't properly tackle (the use of the shoulder and smothering the ball ect) its ok signing players who can attack but it seems like they can't defend, Matty Smith, Ashley Gibson, Rob Parker, Chris Nero, Feka, and Jack Spencer are the main one's who were missing the tackles tonight and cost us most of the try’s saints scored
.
6. were not sharp enough, Luke Patten’s header to the opposition says it all really, kick outs on the full not making touch with penalty’s, letting the ball bounce dead when we were due to receive it on the restart.

7. Bad discipline. Too many penalty’s given away again and too much back chat.

I could go on and on and on, we have nothing that will contribute to a victorious team at the moment.

This im afraid is down to the coach and only the coach he's in charge he's the boss the team resembles what he does on the training field, imo Shaun McRea is a coach from the class of 96. Sorry Shaun but the game has moved on and you are to stubborn and up your own backside to study learn and practice the new modern day strategy’s.

I was watching the SL launch press conference at the Trafford Centre and noticed something about every other SL coach that we haven’t got, their nearly all fresh faced, physically fit, ex successful players, and bring new ideas to the table, McRea is overweight by far nowhere near fresh never played the game and doesn't have anything new to bring and hasn't for years, as they say you can't teach an old dog new tricks.

Sorry Shaun 4years is 4 years to long now mate if I were you I’d pack up and leave now, for the home fans to chant abuse like that is awful but imo it is deserved, I’ve never seen anything like that at the willows before it just shows that nobody wants you here anymore, Brian Noble or John Kear please John we need to get this mess sorted now before it’s too late.

You musty of been watching a different Jack Spencer then matey? He was totally out of his depth tonight and it showed with Saints targeting him and making a lot of breaks through him, cost us a lot of field position too. not good enough for Super League stick him back in the academy.

top post RED LEAGUE....sums up what we all know

To be fair they had to target someone after Patten left the field. They had targetted him for most of the game so just moved on to JS.
