Foal? baby horse - horse's mouth ? Horse's offspring ?

MP hasnt given us any suggestion he is a man to cut and run at the 1st opportunity....

Morley wanted to sign but we didn't offer him enough money

"Morley wanted to sign but we didn't offer him enough money"



Anyone would want to sign if we offered enough money.

That was 17 years ago, keep up with the programme

We have a 'promising' rather than 'proven' Coach, a Team of 'have beens' and 'might be's' who haven't seen the the top eight since 2006. So far, we've signed a Crusaders cast off, a Saints reserve and crocked Aussie. We've a Chairman with a big heart surrounded by numpties and the smallest fan base in the Country..................oh! and we've no money.



Apart from a new Stadium, it doesn't read too well does it! How do we expect to make any decent signings? Why would Morley leave Warrington if there's any hope of playing on there?



Myself and many other die-hards will no doubt be signing up for another season, but I'm under no illusion that things are going to improve either on or off the field. The disappointment of the last season at the Willows really hurt, the Club have gone backwards for 5 years and there's no evidence so far that things may change.



We can only hope that early sales of season tickets are good and the Chairman may be tempted to take another gamble with a top class siging or two, but I'm not holding my breath.



Keeping the faith is TOUGH when you follow Salford.

Good post RR but last season, I could not wait to see in the season because we had

a "proven" (if unpopular to many) coach,

a series of superb (on paper) signings,

and talk of an enlarged supporter-base.



And what happened?



At least we [delown[/del occupy a new stadium that will [delattract[/del be seen by [delmany[/del some new fans.

I dont agree. I fear when he publicly came out and blasted the fact that he had the wool pulled over his eye's, and (as mentioned above) didn't want to do the same job Salford wanted him to was giving him self a "plan B"



I fear he's at least made everyone aware of how "bad" things are so he can consider his options!



At the end of the day SM faced the same problems - but my opinion of the man, is a Leach who wouldn't dare give up a good thing - allegedly this didn't do his health any good and taking the cash and keeping quiet seemed in the end result in his early departure.



I think MP is a completely different mould - a man genuinely wants to do well. Lets not forget - he's a youngish coach who I presume wants to make a name for himself... Did he think he could do this at Salford when SS came over and painted a rosy picture ? Probably. Does he realistically think he can do it now. Undoubtedly not.



I fear when he publicly announced how different things were to what he had been told, he was making an escape route for himself. If not why announce it? if he can make the changes then surely he would just quietly get on with it.



He didn't come out and blast a few area's of the club, he came out and stated the club's considered a laughing stock in SL, I'm not saying the mans wrong, but to go to the extreme's he did indicate only one thing. Diggin a tunnel back down under.

When does training start? Surely if he's here first day of training that will/should end all of the rumours?!

I personally think that MP said what he said to fire a rocket up the ar$e$ of the collective powers that be at the club and maybe even push them into backing him with a bit of extra cash for player. Think though MP has seen that you could throw the maximum cap money at Salford and you'd not get anything other than a few star players but no great sucsess and almost certainly it would be the same old same old behind the scenes.

If what I have been told today by someone I trust implicately is true then there is one very big signing who will be worth his weight in gold in column inches and bums on seats.



Doubt MP would cut and run until he's given it a full season and thus the chance to make a name for himself.
