In a word no.

Not confident either..?

I don't know why anyone is surprised. It has been yet another awful season for Salford which is destined to end in failure again. Harris deserves the sack. We move on.

It's pretty obvious reading many comments after today's news broke than we have all been keeping a lid on things. I don't think any of use wanted to contribute to even more negativity did we?

If it Harris's team selection for the HKR game, then he has paid the price for it
Harris now wants to take a leaf out of Andy Gregory's departure from salford, and take a break from all things Rugby League, and go and watch Salford on Sunday

Coaches column in the programme. Could be an interesting read on Sunday.

Probably needs to be written in pencil - nothing permanent at Salford

I don't think Harris will be applying for his old job back at Wigan will he?

If Iestyn is on his way out, think Mr Sheens may have something to do with all this ?

We could all be barking up the wrong tree here. He's only contracted for this year and there was a post recently on this forum predicting Harris was destined for some coaching role with Sale Sharks. If true they would probably want him around for their pre season rather than wait until September/October when the RU season has already started.

It's got to be Koucash Head Coach Vickers Assistant and Sheens Water Boy

Many fans of different clubs unhappy with their coaches - Wigan (Wane), Wires (Smith), Hull (Radford) , Bradford (Lowes)
etc

No doubt the Merry Go Round will start soon.

Chairman at 21.30 tonight ;-


`Iestyn have not been sacked and is not feeling well`

Radford and Lowes are also very poor coaches who were appointed based on their playing rather than coaching ability.

Hope he's OK.....

Koukash in the MEN

“There’s no truth in the rumour that he’s been sacked and we wish him a speedy recovery."

So there you are,the facts straight from the horses mouth. No truth in the rumour at all.

Get well soon,Iestyn.

Forgive me if I take what the MEN says with a pinch of salt, especially with Manchester's chief clown as the main contributor. Besides, Lama Tasi said there was no truth in him going to Saints. MK said, well, any number of things that have turned out to be .

My point being, that there's plenty of examples of the Club saying one thing and doing another...

That was my very point !

My guess is it's one or two things.

1. It's work related stress (McRae was absent from his position with only a few months of his contract left)

2. There is some truth in the rumours about a coaching job with Sale Sharks, Harris has walked and the Doc's has told him to take a few days off to reconsider.

How often does it become public knowledge that a sports coach/manager is off ill unless it's something very serious? I just find it odd that Harris made a post match comment after Hull KR saying it's a 'do or die' game on Sunday and he won't be there. Considering this it's not a bout of hey fever, a stomach bug or a head cold is it?

Nobody is seriously buying this "Harris is sick" are they? What has happened between Tuesday night and Thursday morning - it's complete and utter b*llocks.

Oh and I would love to have Paul Rowley as Salford head coach. The things I would give to see Salford play a similar brand of 'care-free' and entertaining RL as Leigh have done for these past couple of seasons. In a game where people are too concerned about percentages Rowley has ripped up the coaching manual and gone about things his own way.

He's just thrown a sickie so he can have a few days in his garden with the ambre solaire. He'll be back Monday looking like Clayton Blackmore.

This is a classic in industry, Harris credibility completely shot, MK wants him out & puts pressure on Harris, to safe guard not being pushed out with nothing he goes on the sick with stress, getting rid becomes more difficult, this is my opinion.

No doubt you will get some who would like to chew your ear off for suggesting this, but as you say it does happen. A friend of mine works in HR and he can tell some stories on this subject.

`The one thing we can't do is carry on as we are. Pi$$ poor coaching and pi$$ poor selecton decisions are killing us imo.`



So true





But this was a comment about the PIES coach.
