I did feel a little uneasy when the so called "unbiased" commentary team were regularly referring to Salford as "We", but there again Adrian Morley was one of them.

Awful performance.

Utter garbage

Whilst I'm not a member of the 'Chester Out' brigade, I think this game and the Cas game have sealed the fate of CC at the end of the season. No real excuses for performances like that.
We need a change of coach at the end of the season. We seem to to have fallen into the trap again of the need to fulfil fixtures being more important than actually winning any. Treading water in SL is not really an option for increasing support, especially when the other 2 teams in WMDC are appearing at Wembley today.

Does anyone think Chris Chester won't be head coach next year. I reckon the deal has already been done so we can enjoy a further two years of frustration watching 13 players runn9ng around in the attacking 20, each with no idea what the other is going to do.

Yes, I think he won't be coach next year.
He knows (& MC knows) this is a results-based business and excuses were made for the special circumstances of 2019 and 2020, but a lack of improvement and poor performances this year means we need a change of regime. The Leeds, Cas and Salford games were performances which should have been better. The excuses are now irrelevant and we need to change something.

Unfortunately I think Chester will be here next year, it’s hinted in his recent interviews regarding Gaskell, Crowther and Jowitt. There won’t be a good time to announce his extension so why not get it over with.

I fully expect him to be here net season and the worry is we will have an even weaker squad.i think there will be less season ticket renewals meaning less income again.the squad we are assembling already seems to be less than inspiring. Add to this the recent record of new players is somwhat dissapointing.that said i stll dont believe its certain we will be sl next season leigh are going to improve and are bringing in new players.

On attack, our player with the ball had no idea what they were doing.

Having said that, good 'finish' by Innes for his try.

It's very obvious that Lino isn't an organiser and we knew that Miller wasn't.
The "leader" of our side is Westerman who, unfortunately didn't play yesterday.

It doesn't help when we throw 4 potential "assists" into the stands though
Yesterday looked like our firs pre season game, with far too many players going through the motions because they know that they will be selected next week and we couldn't cope with Pauli in the second half, knocking holes in our defensive line and scattering players all over.
On the subject of not wanting to postpone games, IF we were in a position for a covid postponement (without getting hit for a 24 - 0 result), we should bloody well postpone - especially yesterdays game where Salford were more than "fortunate" to postpone the original fixture.
