I wasnt defending Steve Simms I was merely pointing out what his job entails. As Fatboys Limb points out its akin to Kenyon being sacked when Scolari was dismissed.

He is Football Director and therefore he should be seen to be with the coach. Sir Alan Sugar doesnt walk around with his employees he gets the other two to follow them and report back to Him. I can only presume SS reports back to JAW with info about what is going on as well. JAW cannot be everywhere.

Unless someone can come up with 2 years Contract Settlement to SMc I would guess that JAW doesnt have to worry about who to give the job to.

Whatever Simms does or doesent do neither he nor McCrae drop balls, miss tackles, give away penalties or generally @rse around the pitch for eighty minutes trying to keep their shirts clean. Now i dont believe that McCrae can turn it around this year. For whatever reason the players dont seem to be a happy bunch with each other, and maybe he will not be around come the second season we play but the players not doing the basics is killing us. It has become obvious (to me anyway) that a combination of poor recruitment and some players from last year not being able to step up has along with having less money than most left us way behind where we would want to be. Poor old Myler must be really looking forward to taking the field every week just to try his nuts off for no reward. I have said elsewher on this board that i have written off the season as i cant see this group of players improving enough to become competative. We will get more thumpings and that will not attract fans will it. I have no idea of where we begin to put it right but i will still turn up at home games but spending the season as Super Leagues equivelant of the school spanner is not one i am looking forward to. :oops:

but you had not been there before so it was a novelty, we have been there and back a number of times and with the team playing with no conviction why should us fans bother going away and paying £20 to get into what is a crap cold ground.


How much is it in your crap cold ground this year? :P

Born in Hope, live in hope - Salford RLFC.

This club needs sorting out and it needs sorting now the whole set up is nothing short of shambolic on and off the field, they cant expect people to watch that for much longer.

Summats got to change or else Salford RLFC are as good as finished.

[quote="wardleyred"]so if simms has nothing to do with coaching/who we sign/team selection....why does he tail behind mcrae everywhere?
Perhaps he could give it up for a week and next week at gateshull we could do a raffle and the winner gets to be steve simms for the day!!go in the dressing rooms walk across the pitch holding mcraes hand,helping the fat old loaf up the steps into the stand and giving him a comentry on what is going on in the game as he is quite clearly blind to see what is going on in front of him!!!!
Quality idea hey???£5 a go all money raised goes towards paying mcrae off!!! :lol: :lol:
perhaps shirley could sought something out :wink:[/quote

Sorry to dissappoint to help with the above, but you are all talking through your ar#es re Simms, he doesnt pick the team & only contacts the agents of the players he is asked to contact by his coach, aka, Mcrea.

At this moment what I agree with is that McRea does not appear to know what he is doing & has more or less admitted to that in his post match radio interview (which I have not heard) as people who had heard say he seems to be talking his way out of a job!!!!!
If the guy has never been in this position before coaching a club over here, he probably doesnt know what to do, so he should hold his hands up to the board & say so & go, If I was at work & knew I couldnt do the job I would be big enough to approach my employers & say so & to give the job to some one else.
Looking round at todays game plenty of usual die-hard fans who for years through thick & thin(iknow, mainly thin) have travelled to the away games no matter what, were conspicuous with their absence today, before long, those die hard fans , who dont buy into the season ticket will stop going to the home games, & as for new fans attending, they will be none existent, so incoming revenue will be massivly hit, can the club afford for that to happen? Maybe the club need to cut the losses now, keeping him may be false economy, use a plaster before a bandage is needed.
Nobody seems to be giving the team any encouragement during the game from the touchline , so is that the same at training, if so no wonder there is no motivation, Goulding eluded to that in his interview last week.
The interchanges, why, after having a break at half time for 10mins, within 5mins of the start of the second half, he subs Leuleui, it seems just because you can have 12 interchanges, they HAVE to use them.
Have to say, we need a complete change in both coaching depts, then see how the players play & then see which , if any , of the players are not performing, because they certainly cant for this coach

This ofcourse is only my opinion. :)

this will not be the end, or even the beginning of the end.
It is merely the end of the beginning

Old Walrus Chops career has certainly had something of a decline in it.

Maybe he will just be kept on until the end of his contract and let a new coach build from there.
