Rowley

I doubt it.

Now the financial position won't allow that and, of all things, that would certainly put the club under more pressure. Maybe too much!

In the words of Max Miller "Now here's a funny thing!"

SARL treating Wire and Rowles as if it's nothing to do with them stirring the pot

"Some Salford fans have since got worried with the speculation worsened by the fact that Rowley is at the Halliwell Jones tonight, as pictured by the Sky Sports cameras."

Then they wonder why we tend not to trust them.

If Rowley was to go to Wire I'd be stunned having been bitten at Toronto. He is on a good run at Salford at the moment but still has much to prove as an elite level coach. He got Leigh relegated and Toronto did not work out. Thus whilst he has had one fantastic season with us last year there is still much to do for him to be considered a truly elite coach. I guess it depends on him buying into the clubs 2028 vision and being their long term. The Wire club environment is as toxic as Cas.   

Wire will not take a coach that has lost 7 on the bounce simple as that, close the thread down. Some fans think Rowley is god like, until he gets us to a final or we win something his stock is average in the game. Oh and JJR Salford fans dislike Watto but with a lack of funds and a budget team we made two finals. How does Rowley compare? He has done ok but is not a miracle worker - we have better players in this squad. Plenty to do moving forward.

I don't really think it matters what we think about Rowley and his coaching.

The thing that's struck me is how players really like the way he goes about things. He has obviously fostered an honesty about his players and knows that for players to come into his system they need to be able to take that honesty on the chin. He is very much a players coach. He allows players their inputs and encourages them to play rather than lock them into a rigid system. See Watson for a good example of a rigid system. This comes with caveats though, and he requires players to back up mistakes or calls. I don't think our current run of losses is much to do with anything other than limited squad and unfortunate injuries to key players. We've been spread a little too thin for to long at the moment. It certainly has exposed our ultimate vulnerability and that is squad depth. I think the reason we give the most penalties away is due to the fact that we have the core of a great team and the workhorses of a Championship side. I say that with the utmost respect. We concede because we are operating at our peak in some areas and that means we are often not in control of outcomes resulting in those penalty counts. Offsides, silly decisions and slowing of play to name but a few.

I think Salford as a team will only beat these failings with stronger depth in the playing squad and keeping the core together. Can they still surprise us? Of course. Can they punch above their weight? No doubt. But for me, our shortcomings at the moment are quite plain for me to see.

Yes C, openness and honesty C…in short supply but Rowley and his coaching staff have it in bucketfulls. As Salford supporters that’s the first thing we want; a lot could learn from the way his team and his coaching staff commit themselves.

He’s come out today and spoken about the pathetic reffing of Jack Smith…disgraceful…3 home games on the spin now, the team must feel deflated
