blaming the ref for that result is a joke!there were 13 players running round in salford shirts in the second half who bar a few looked completly uninterested.Thaler didnt help matters but was he the one kicking rubbish,dropping the ball all the time,tackling like a girl etc???

Well said. Salford were awful in the 2nd half and seemed to rely on lying on in the tackle to slow Warrington down. I'm amazed it took as long as it did to sin bin a player. Ironically, the player that was binned was the one who put the most effort in during the game. Wouldn't mind see'ing Phil L pulling on the P&B in Rau's place next season.

Why don't you add an 'S' on the end of 'Scarlet Turkey' as a tribute to your players effort today ?

owt means summat else up north.

McCrae summed it up - some good plays by Wire, many mistakes by us, some dreadful decisions by Thaler.

Did you boo your players off at half time ?
Christ knows what you lot would do if you were on the end of a hammering like that.
Do not delude yourself either, we made you look like world beaters.
Against Saints or any other top team in that first half you would have been taken to the cleaners.
You are average at best and without that little to$$er Briers definitely struggle.
Good luck with Richie, how long before he becomes the next Kevin Penny

But we recently played Saints and weren't 'taken to the cleaners' at all. Whereas Salford most decidedly [iwere [/itransported to Sketchley's in the [isecond [/ihalf today.

Bitterness at its best.

You would kill for a little like Briers in your side

Read what I said or is that beyond you.
I said on the form you showed today in the first half Saints would have took you to the cleaners.
26-40 at home to Saints you think is not a bad defeat


Even little Salford beat Saints

Anyone even mentioning the referee is surely missing the point. You were in it at half time, then you gave away, what, 50 points in one half?

That isn't the referee. It's a far bigger problem than that. When you're in that position you're meant to come out motivated at half time after a rousing speech.

I am getting a deja vou feeling. Do we remember all the posts after the Huddersfield game, about how bad we played, about threats of not renewing season tickets etc etc. Then the following week we beat Saints. come on guys thats all part of being a Red, one week we are up the next we are rock bottom, its been like that for years, not saying its right but its just Salford, watch out Wakey, thats all i can say, draw a line and look forward and just be glad you dont support a normal, straight forward club.

That is your problem you can not play without him.
I would love to see your win loss ratio with him in and out of the team
BTW You can keep him, never liked him although I admit he is a good player.
Bitter yes I am.

Bless

I dont think ive ever seen Warrington put 50 unanswered points on anyone. To be fair with Lee briers penalty kicking, you didnt stand a chance of coming back.

i hate wigan but i hope they smash you in the semis and shut you up Tony smiths barmy army course you didnt sing in the first half once and sang quite with 10 minutes to go when you are hammering us.

yes but we beat saints and you didnt

wire fans are poor,anyone who needs a drum to help create an atmosphere the same applies...i was waiting for the widnes "GET INTO EM"chant to kick in to the drum beat

I assure you I read every word, but imagining what [imight have[/i happened is no substitute for reporting what actually [idid [/ihappen. I made no reference to your win over Saints, either.

And are team are good at druming up a crowd fans dont come to watch salford when they give tickets away so i dont understand the critizizam of wire fans when we hardly have any support at all

and u where singing your hearts out when wire where hammering u

and he still wont pick fitzy next week ,what a idiot this guy is ,stick to tv fat mac cos your worst coach i have ever seen

Today was about as embarassing as it gets & coming from someone who's been watching Salford for 36 years that's high praise indeed. For those who are slating McRae well I can't believe I'm defending the man but the truth is when the players cross the whitewash there's not too much the coaching staff can do. The Salford team that turned out for the 2nd half were an absolute embarassment, yes the ref was poor, yes some of McRae's selections defy reason but to lose a half of rugby 50-0, quite frankly a large number of professional rugby league players need to wake up tomorrow morning & realise that what passed for a performance today is completely unacceptable. If I stole a liviing like that at my job I'd feel embarrased quite frankly, sort it the f**k out.

yes and would u have done at that scoreline

No you weren't, you were throwing your arms in the air and blaming Myler and Thaler for everything. I did see many Salford fans cupping their ears when they went 20-12 up though, they weren't an hour later however.

To be honest, I'm surprised there isn't more Warrington fans on here getting giddy, but I'm not going to dwell on that...

The performance. Shocking. We looked bloody brilliant at times in the first half and then looked like we should be playing in the National Conference. They need a long, hard look at themselves. I'd love to know what Myler was doing everytime we conceded, waving his hands around like an idiot. Mind you, he did pat a Warrington player on the back and smiled as if to say "well done" after they'd scored one of their second half tries. But hey ho...

As for Thaler... Well, I didn't think he was that bad. Some dodgy decisions, but he was bad for both teams I thought. There was a couple of decisions that everyone was screaming about that he actually got spot on. He shouldn't be a talking point in any way, shape or form.

I know the coaching staff can't be held responsible for the players putting in such a shocking turnaround, but it doesn't say much for McRae's coaching ability when something like that does happen. What the hell did he say at half-time?!

One final point. All this talk about low attendances, not being able to attract more supporters and so on... Can anyone seriously blame other people for staying away now after that? Next Friday could be a very low crowd with an even flatter atmosphere than usual.

You leathered us and you are the best team in the world with the best fans best ground blah blah blah
Happy now

Warrington. The Manchester City of Rugby League.
