| Quote LoyalFan="LoyalFan"McRae was awful for Salford... We played some horrific RL under him... and for us to say that is was horrific, it must have been bad as we've not had much better than average over the years.
He had the best part of 4 years to build a team... when he took over from Karl Harrison... he said that it wasn't his team and to judge him when he built his own... well he built his own... we judged him... and he failed miserably.
In my opinion... he wasn't great with the fans either and I'd say he got back what he put in. I wish him the best like any normal human being... but as long as he stays away from my club I'll be happy.
The players didn't rate him as he gave more analysis of the game on the TV than he did at his own club. This was mentioned a few times on speaking to players 'off the record'... and yes... players should be bigger than that... but a club like Salford need a coach who can stand up... he couldn't.
Finally... [udon't be so gullible to what you read in the press[/u.'"
Were not, neither are most of us gullible to what we read on here! |

It's unbelievable that people believe all this tripe that they have read in the newspapers. If only you all knew the full story... you'd have a huge amount off egg to wipe off your faces.
As for the 'great coach'... he certainly didn't continue that at Salford. |

Who has done it at Salford??!!
FWIW - I loved the rugby we played under McRae and think we would have won the cup in '05 with the team that Kear had available to him. He was also great with the fans, great at fans forums etc so whatever you think of his time at Salford, its not going to tarnish the reputation he has with the Hull fans |

That's fair enough,... and we are entitled to our opinions... however... I know exactly when he used to say and think about the fans... with no reason. |

i've no idea of the 'full story' - please enlighten me !
if he's not suffering from depression then that's great news ! I wouldn't wish that on anyone.
I have a beach towel to wipe the egg from my face....
he was generally respected at Saints and did the job - he seems a really straight guy the times i've bumped into him so good luck to him
whatever happens,I hope he's back in the game asap in some capacity |

Talked to him a couple of times and a really nice bloke,always had time for the fans and was one of the few coaches at Hull who has had his name sung....We played some cracking stuff with McRae but ultimately won sod all with a superb squad.
Looking from the outside in....has Alker(who i believe isnt that popular and Bomber had a falling out with) and Simms(who is a total to$$er imo) got anything to do with it? |

Very brave to speak in public about his illness, I suspect a book about the challenges he faced will be on the shelves very soon. Along with Sky TV pay and a payoff from Salford he hasn't done too bad.
If the illness hadn't come along and Salford ended the season 9th or below, who would have taken him on as head coach?
I'm no mug and neither is Shaun Mcrea. Maybe Salford isn't a nice place to work, I don't know, and maybe he has been ill for a while. He seems fine now though and that's good, hopefully the cheque will help.

Just reading the garbage you've written about the bloke, I'd suggest he had every reason if you're indicative of a Salford fan |
