I don't boo the players, only the coach, he is clueless, the Leeds win left him speechless, and whatever happens at halftime just shows that he is a poor coach out of his depth in Super League in the year 2010.

I also fear that Cashmere does not want to play for him, his injury gets worse each week.

Last year we had size in Stapo and he hasn't been replaced adequately. Cashmere has been missing injured and without these two we seem really 'lightweight'



Rutgerson / Highto / Coley / Haggi..........these guys have never been adequately replaced for me.



Dunemann was head and shoulders above anything we've seen since



Bottom Line is, we're out muscled every week, half backs are average at best and our backline is woefull (And has been for two years), and we've a Head Coach no-one else would touch with a barge pole.



Now tell me again why are we unsuccessful and rock bottom? We've recruited exciting players ,Team morale is fantastic, the players are 'training the house down', we've a new stadium on the way, we're a shoe in for a franchise spot.



THE BOARD AND COACHING STAFF ARE SERIOUSLY DELUDED!!!!!!!!

Pev, not suggesting that you do boo the players. I'd expect anything but that of you.



As for your points re Cashmere and half-time routine. Well, who knows. You could be right.

Amen to all this RR. However, half backs tend to look average on the back of a dominated pack. The bacline will often suffer if the half backs are average. Domino effect... (Although I thought Henry went well last night.)

Cashmere, Leuluei, Sidlow and Boyle are all big units, they just don't seem to hit the ball with enough pace. Not wanting to keep laying the blame on Alker, but the speed of our play ball at the moment is killing our go forward. If you put Cashmere in either the Wigan/Warrington sides, with the speed of their play, he would look like the potential Representitive footballer they say he is down under.



Infact if you put the majority of our team in anyother super league side they would look like the quality players they are. The older members have proven themselves, and the likes of Adamson, Ratchford and Sidlow are all young lads, potentially, with careers ahead of them. Whatever is going on at the moment could end up ruining these players livelihoods.



Our wingers haven't showered themselves in glory, but you can't complain with Talau and Henry in the centres, even Dunneman would look like a donkey in the current team.



There is obviously a collection of problems. From a fans perspective I love the willows, but it can't be much fun for 17 6ft plus solidly built guys in those changing rooms. This is where the new ground comes into play. Better facilities will make happier players and happy players will play better.



Maybe we need to say a big thank you to Manchester City Council, John Prescott and anybody else who tried prevent the new ground!!!!!!

OK yay.

youngsters ... you want an answer



Murphy



had a team that he was superb and needed tweaking... his outsized ego got in the way.



OOPs - DIDN'T REALISE IT WAS A shed query .... sorry

Wish McRae was the worst coach we'd ever had.



We were much worse under Harvey, considerably worse under McCormack and just as bad under Harrison in his final season.

Yes we were bad under Harvey, mcormack was the youngest ever superleague coach, lasted about 10 months and although Karl Harrison did a great job behind the scenes at the club, and we did slowly improve between 03 - 06 we actually only had 1 good period whilst playing under him from February '06 to April '06 after that it went pear shaped and we were actually looking to manage to cling onto a playoff spot!



everyone thinks because we got in the playoffs that one year we were this awesome side with a great coach, but it just wasnt the case... we started that year very very well and that is what ultimatly gave us our playoff berth.





Maybe our downfall with mcrae was the size of the contract he was given, but it was clear that mcrae was the one the salford board wanted and therefore he probably said, give me a four and a half year contract and i am yours...





there has been far worse salford performances under all of our coaches including shaun mcrae, and although he may very well be getting the preperation/tactics wrong, its not him that makes all them knock ons, wrong decisions, and runs/passes the ball like a headless chicken for 80minutes

Its got to be the volvo b10 they used about 5-6 years ago. the seats smelt musty and the suspension was buggered and there was a crack on the window on the middle right that let a draught in.
