Millward wouldnt go to Salford pre season when you wanted him, cant see him coming now the transfer cost would be high and I feel he is waiting for a top 6 side next season.

I agree with RED101 over the performance which was woeful especially the second half when we appeared to have capitulated to a team who in the first quarter looked a poor side.
The fans? who boo and jeer the team and throw in obscenities at every opportunity are in my opinion an embarrassment to the club, its supporters and indeed themselves although for much of the game the fans did try to lift the side.
I like many people who have been supporting Salford for many years are cheesed off with our performances this season and the latter part of last season and the whole set up coaches,players and officials need to take a long hard look at themselves over the next few days and decide what action that they are going to take in the interest of the club.
Clearly the coach should consider his position although I still find it hard to accept that the players have been coached into giving away stupid penalties in key positions, dropping the ball or helping it to go into touch at every opportunity.
Either the players that we have signed plus the ones that we have retained are not up to standard or they are either playing how the coach wants them to or they cannot understand what the coach wants.
As an example I rate Daniel Holdsworth as a player and against Hull HR and Crusaders he showed what he can do, but in the last two matches my ten year old grandchild could play the game that he is playing at present IE Get the ball from the scrum and pass.Is he being told to play this type game?

You've got to be so careful, you're literally knocking on the bottom door of the franchise system. It's as if your club has already given up.
Sounds stupid but..why haven't you signed anyone decent in the past 2 years? Where's the Myler money gone? And why on earth are you getting 3000 crowds at this level? Don't mean to sound awful but Leigh could do better.
Dico is yet another who doesnt understand the workings of finance. Salford still one of a handful only of RL clubs never to go into Administration/Liquidation for over 100 years. Yes we have paid our way yet if we had behaved like Leigh (Insolvency Masters Degree), Harlequins (ditto), HKR (£3 million in debt & in a Rented stadium), Wakefield (Several Creditor deals), Widnes who wrote off £2+ million of other peoples money we would probably be in a position to acquire the top players to challenge. Its all a question of integrity in the end isnt it?

Indeed.
I would genuinely rather watch a financially sound club in the Championship with JAWs integrity intact than a team in SL with administration, liquidation, massive debts, etc. behind them.
All this "splash the cash" garbage gets on my nerves.
It's idiots throwing money around with no intelligence that's got the UK economy into the mess it's been in recently.

Love him or hate him, 163 consecutive appearances should make Stuart Littler a Salford legend in anyone's book

Good john wilky last looked out
on the pitch at salford.
when the snow lay round about
deep and crisp and even
brightly played the lads that night
though the frost was cruelllll
when poor swinton scored a try
we had 94urrrrrrrrrr
There is only one thing a Salford Supporter can say really and its that HE'S GOT TO GO with McRae he makes good players into bad players, Myler left at the right time and so did Jordan Turner, look at Stefan Ratchford this year he's got nothing like he did last season, and he knows it himself. The more he stays the more damage he does, we're all just gonna be and that includes the players aswell ! i can't think of one person/player i know who likes the Pr1ck

I know passions are running high but can we cut out the name calling? Slug, prick whatever adds nothing to the discussion.
Under Harrison, you could see what he was trying to achieve and where the improvements he made where having an effect. I can't actually see what McRae is trying to do with the team.
