Has he officially gone to you guys yet? As he was at the match yesterday warming the players up on the pitch, can't work out what's going on?

He handed in his resignation notice at Salford, I'm not sure if it took an immediate effect or the usual 2 week period applies.

Eddie seemed to think they were making him work a notice period so he can't give us all Salfords secrets before next week.

The mind boggles as to what those secrets are!

What's stopping Long from phoning up Wane and discussing Noble's genius tactics?

Welcome to the crazy world of RL on Sky Sports. It's like watching a time warp were the telephone hasn't been invented yet.

Absolutely clueless.

Eddie talks Bo$$ocks shocker!!!!!

He joins us a week on Monday

His first internal disciplinary meeting is scheduled for a week on Thursday.

Should be interesting if he trains with the Salford first team on Friday

Todays M.E.N states that Long's last match with Salford will be at Wigan on Friday night before he joins up with the Warriors. It would be most interesting to see the Wigan fans reaction if a Salford player breaks away down the wing and Long forgets himself and starts jumping up and down urging the player on. Another interesting snippet in the paper is the report that Paul Deacon has been sounded out, but has made it clear that he does not want to leave the Warriors.

If said scenario happens I would be disappointed that he wouldn't be encouraging his current team to score.

His last game as Salford's assistant coach is this weekends game against Wigan.

I wonder if he gets his usual rousing Wigan welcome.

should be interesting judging by the chants at the hull game last friday.

hardly call them chants! quietest ones of the night that most people refused to get involved with. always going to get some hatred towards him after what has gone on but he is part of the wigan club now (or will be soon) so dont see the point in such songs. If i were a kid in the 19's id be thrilled that I was getting a coach like long to learn from.

He get's the chants as he was such a good player and he harmed us back in the day. IF he can pass some of this onto our youngsters it's a good thing.

I worry about his temperament though, let's hope he has grown up.

I think he will be fine and do a good job, no worries at all from me.

If he's working for Salford tomorrow night, he should do his best to help them win.

is he going to be "on duty" for Salford on Friday night though, judging by his twitter i'm not so sure...

I would like to thank all the staff at the stadium for my gifts.Card, Cake, vodka, Fake nails, and nail varnish?? I think a lot of thought x

He's proved himself at Salford to be a good coach.
For one, we signed Matty Smith due to his improved skills and game which became apparant at the Reds. Their backs last year played some great rugby.
All that IMO was down to Longy.
He's at Wigan from Monday and he'll have my support from then on!

I agree with you.

Whatever it was you were on when you jumped to those conclusions you should bottle it and sell it. You'd make a fortune.

I wish we could bottle you and send you back to the 1980's as your getting very boring..The club is run better than i have ever known and i've been a 30 year fan..thanks IL, made a dynasty..great work.

It depends on what he coaches the under 19's to do.



Hope it's not this.
