Who, if any of these four will be the first down the road?

For what it's worth I don't think any of them should be worrying about their positions but a lot of players should.

However the CEO's and directors of the clubs do think in mysterious ways (French Federation anyone :wink:) so you never know.

What I do know is the that the lttle darlings who go out onto the field are wonderful chaps who always give 120% for themselves, the club their team mates and, more IMPORTANTLY, the people who actually pay their salaries the FANS!!!

Next season might be a different kettle of fish but as this is the first year of "upsetting Widnes and Leigh" :wink: then if the CEO's etc have the gumption they may let things lie and let the situations develop from the end of this current season.






regards
and ENJOY your sport

McRae's going nowhere and Noble's probably bought himself another few weeks at least.

Lowes looks by far the likeliest, then McNamara.

lowes will be in serious trouble if wire dont win in next couple of games.

dont think anyone should be considered for sacking though this early in the season when thens no relegation, they should at least be given a full season to try and turn things round

They play Leeds next week - should be a easy game after Manly have bashed us about a bit






Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.

Right, Im the owner of Salford.....I got a acse of beer from the shops, it was 5 pounds cheaper than I expected, so I bought the Reds.


So I'm the owner, and I'm spending good money and the team is complete and utter sh*t.


However, my clubs coach has found the time to be a commentator for Sky?



I can tell you the first thing I'd be doing is calling the walrus into my office, telling him to do his ****ing job and stop pretending he knows what he is talking about on Sky.

Then I'd fire him anyway.

Well I'd break him you see.


Call him in, ask why he goes on Sky.....ask if he is short of money because I know I'm paying him enough to not coach my team to victory.


Eventually the truth would come out.....



See, they have catering before they calls the games, and they make these sandwiched with these little pickles in them, and the walrus loved his pickles.

In fact, he has never been paid to work on Sky. He isn't even employed by them. He's just there eating all their food and he picks up a mic and no one has had the heart to tell him to go away.

Surely as non of these clubs were expected to win a trophy this year, and with the three year franchises in place, then it will taken some of the pressure off coaches.
