| Quote Dita's Slot Meter="Dita's Slot Meter"I know this is like poking a hornet's nest, but, let's face it, you Salford fans don't really have a choice but to support your owner's actions, because if he was to ever walk out then you would be finished as a Super League club - Its like us Wire fans have to be eternally grateful to Simon Moran for the same reason, despite him making mistakes throughout his ownership, especially with regard to coaches.
As I've said before, I believe that if Koukash shows patience and surrounds himself with people who can rein him in a bit, then some type of success is inevitable, but if he continues to be so publicly vocal in his criticism of the side's displays and making knee-jerk decisions like sacking coaches after a few poor results, then attracting top class people to his club will become increasingly difficult.'"

| Quote TheButcher="TheButcher"Everyone loves a bit of speculation don't they?
I'm just bored of reading the opinions of other fans who seem to be legends in their own lunchtimes, self-confessed RL messiahs, and general morons who struggle to find the right keys on the keyboard. I don't normally mind them, but the influx this season has dulled my senses.
=#FF0000
Take it as me not adjusting to the Koukash era just yet. I wish Marwan would just be quiet for a month, and I might be alright!
Saying that, if he was they'd be on here claiming he's losing interest...

mate, that one brief statement has completely changed my mind about you. its what all us nobs have been saying after all.

| Quote pottsy31="pottsy31"From what I've heard, noble didn't go on the training pitch, and left it to two coaches who weren't up to it. Against castleford the subs didn't know they were on the bench until they checked whether they had a shirt hung up. When players are telling the coaches what we need to do, that should set the alarm bells ringing. Fortunately they did and marwan acted accordingly, because he wants to win. Addressing the issues to leave the players with no excuses is a positive step.'"
God did you hear wrong, myself and other posters on here are members of the onsite gym and personally I often saw him taking the training sessions on the 'training pitch'
Why on earth post something so obviously wrong?

| I Think when Harris takes over on Monday the Dr will come out and tell us why hes changed nobles position or sacking him and put everyone minds at ease. Im abit gutted about the news and its spoilt a good week for me after what the guys did on Thursday. I hope Noble stays on.
Nobody knew karl Harrison when he came to the club and he ended up getting us to the play off. Who knows how Harris will do with us with Koukash backing him you never know.

| As I've posted on the VT:
Wether you believe me or not I'm not bothered, this has been caused by the players. 6 of the senior players turned up at Marwans office on 3 separate occasions to voice their concerns about the training methods and game plan of Noble. The doctor listened and had done what he had to do.

Thought there was a quote the other day when this all kicked off from Morley saying he was shocked? Surely if he is the club captain he would have been very much aware about what was going on. If senior players really do have an issue with training methods and game plans then I'd say they should have first gone to Noble and then if nothing got done to the owner.
All getting a little messy for me now this, would have been much better if this hadn't been leaked on Twitter rather than official (though one still hasn't been posted) club outlets.

| Quote Dita's Slot Meter="Dita's Slot Meter"I'll take that as an admission that you can't really come back with anything worthwhile to defend your argument.....
'"
If I may put words in Butcher's mouth, perhaps the problem is that your post - as with so many other similarly silly posts from fans of other clubs - is that it's laden with pejoratives: "Koukash press the panic button"; " a trigger-happy owner"; "egotistical owner"... If you want a civilized response, then you might want to consider making a civilized point.
You - as so many fans of other clubs do - seem to be approaching it all from the perspective of someone who has set himself up a nice little Straw Marwan; one who is capricious, impatient, rude, etc. and you view everything he says and does through that distorting prism.
So, your little list of "what ifs?" could just as easily have read:
What if your time spent with the likes of Russell Crowe had convined you that there were more modern coaching methods around? What if some of your players had expressed similar concerns? What if some of them had also said that one of the assistant coaches at Wigan was a major user of these methods? What do you do? Do you wait to see if things improve or do you take action?
Now, I don't know if any of these is true, which makes all I've written there every bit as valid as your list of "what ifs?"

Why should he be quiet? Unless you're in some kind of hostage situation, no-one is forcing you to read what he says, no-one is forcing you to comment on what he says, no-one is forcing you to read other's comments on what he says....
The problem isn't with Marwan. It's with people like you.
That said, the Brian Noble thing could have been handled better.

Exactly my point.

I see you'd rather post on the Salford message board than attend your clubs opening challenge cup game.
Obsessed.
