I hadn't realised it had been released. Looking at that, I guess same team as last week but Hock in for Dixon. Should give us a bit more power up front, but whether it will do anything about last week's general flatness and lack of ideas remains to be seen.

Well something better change as Marwan has said heads are for the chopping block if we lose....

So Stuart Donlan has moved on. It looks like there's a bit of a restructure of the coaching team going on. Or, to put it in VT terms, "That mad Dr Evil's coaching cull has begun already

"

The report also states Stuart Donlan has left??

Hmmm.



He has every right to expect an improved performance, but heads to roll if you lose? If Hull play to the top of their ability they win, simple as. Would he really wield the axe if you lost by 2 points in a classic cup tie?

I mentioned on another thread I watched the halves & backs training with Longy last week and Donlan was looking on very much on the outer.



Would be interesting to know if Donlan has gone if its Noble or the Doc who has made the decision.

" Koukash Ready to Wield the Axe " Really , wish journo's would get their synonym's right.

wouldn't he wield the Scythe or the pitch-fork if he was the boss of the Red Devils ..

Decapitating someone with a pitchfork would be hard work though.

Anyone know why the game is on a Thursday night if its not on telly?

Hull Tigers are at home Saturday afternoon and we play Huddersfield next Thursday so didn't want to play Sunday and have only 4 day turn around.

Hull see the cup as a second rate comp so decided to play it on the Thursday, meaning they had more time to recover for the massive mid table league clash vs Huddersfield the following week. Salford wanted it on the Sunday.

Lets be fair its not the first time he's said that after a defeat this season.
