| Quote MikeTommo="MikeTommo"Are you seriously happy with the way the club has been run? Does it not concern you one bit that ex players, coaches and rugby people from afar criticise the way it's run?
None of us on here are saying there's an easy answer and most are fully aware that a lot of finance is needed in the club which looks unlikely to come in. This is a forum for people to vent and discuss the issues with Salford, you seem happy to criticise anyone who is unhappy with the running of the club.
All is not rosey and all is not well. You've highlighted the Stadium as a positive. Whilst I'm delighted that were moving to a new home the endless problems we've had to get here only serves to show up the many off field problems we've had.'"

| Quote Michigan red="Michigan red"I read that and think that if he doesn't get some of the players he knows we are desperately short off then I would suggest he'll walk away.
I said yesterday that he might see Salford on a limited budget as a challange to showcase his skills but if the option to strengthen as he expected or was lead to belive then I can see him being coach who deserves better than that actually going and finding better than that.
Unless there are some glaring misquotes I'm seriously worried by that article.'"
And If he goes we are finished If he could go back to that interview room,and no what he no,s now.What would he do

| Quote Red Tide="Red Tide"Don't press the panic button just yet. We all know what 'journalists' are like, he may have said this or that and gave the impretion etc. Don't believe all you hear fro these rags. Don't you think MP would have looked at the info' available to him, stats etc about the state of SCR. I read into that article that he is angling for more cash to spend, no big shock.
Keep the faith, Reds will rule..

| Quote LEDGE787="LEDGE787"Maybe he is putting it our in the public domain to put pressure on the board? It does seem very worrying to me that after a month he has sussed all of this out yet the previous regime didn't once mention anything like this in the previous 4 years! It does also worry me that there could well be a big bust up behind the scenes and a total lack of trust already! I'm glad he is open and honest and I hope that what he is saying will be taken on board and acted upon.'"
McRae was happy just to take the money,or maybe he did tell them,maybe the Chairman did not listen.

| I'm actually a bit disappointed at MP's comments. As a Wanderers fan I thought Parrish could/would be our Owen Coyle (getting a lot more out of the same squad than his predecessor) but I now fear I was wrong.
Anyone can say "I'd do a dead good job here given a truck-load of money" but everyone knows it's just not available.
I'm glad to hear Parrish publically acknowledging some of the faults we knew/suspected existed at the club, and hope that JAW and Co support him to the best of their capabilities, but he has to learn to work within a tight budget and needs to get more out of the players we can afford to sign than McRae was able to.

I cant agree more FL.
He must have spoken to present players and coaches here in the UK and Oz to know exactly what he was coming to.
Everyone knows there has been trouble behind the scenes, lack of money and small fan base so why now sound so surprised ?
It is refreshing to hear some of the comments, but I would much rather he got on with trying to get a couple of wins in what is left of this season to give us all hope for next year.

| Quote And If he goes we are finished '"
What are you on?
Coaches come and go, Salford Reds are not finished if he leaves, . Why on earth would he walk away as it would mean the end of his career in coaching. He is doing what we all do given a chance posturing and negotiating.

| Also posted on another thread, but it applies to both
Quote I really cannot believe some of our fans no wonder we're in the mess we are and have been for years if fans are willing to accept the dross the club has produced for years. You really do need to wake up and see the bigger picture, the whole of rugby league think we're a joke, players come to the club without having medicals, players have clauses in contracts that no professional player should have. Simms has a lot to answer for as does Mr Wilkinson and the rest of the board.
The club is badly run both on and off the field the sooner people realise that then maybe as a club we can move on.'"

Really?
I'm delighted hopefully now something will change. Its no good the fans just saying it, now someone on the inside has come out said what the problem is with Salford RLFC maybe just maybe the board will be shaken into action, because one things for sure we can't take this unprofessional approach the club currently have into the new stadium.

| Quote Red Willow="Red Willow"I am surprised this has come as news to anyone. Harrison said this on taking up post in 2002. He wanted to change everything at the club from the retail and backroom onwards.
Parish has to realise that RL is a minority sport in england and even more so in Salford. The changes he wants are a long term project and we can't honestly expect John and Howard to fund this club to the degree Parish wants. We need a real money man like Moran for that.
I wish Matt the best as he could be the cataylist we need to push on. We need to encourage young players that Salford is a club they can trust their future to, and maybe airing all this in the public domain isn't the best way.'"
Making sure the club operates in a professional way off the field and goes about player recruitment in a thorough manner costs little if anything to implement.
Surely for a club with such scant resources we need to make sure that all aspects of the club are operating at full capacity if we are to attempt to compete with the big boys and this is clearly not happening. A simple look at the Trish era can see the improvements that can be made by maximising what we have.
If anyone thinks we are getting value for money from Simms and Tarry I really do despair. They say the first step to solving a problem is admitting it but the amount of denial on here is frightening.
