Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

| Quite right freddie, the easiest way to make licencing a success is to build a strong second tier , that puts pressure on the licencees to up their game
Unfortunatly the RFL either dont want that, or dont understand that

| And what will happen to Salford?
Lease on "iconic" ground bought by RFL
Players wages paid during period of administration
Provisional year licence awarded
Period of silence in hope no one trips over crap swept under carpet
Move along, there's nowt to see here

3245_1309285420.jpg FAILURE ISN'T ABOUT FALLING DOWN, FAILURE IS STAYING DOWN..........:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3245.jpg |

| What a great thread to wake up to on a rugby-free monday morning. 5 pages in before I catch sight of a 3-way conversation. I have nothing to offer really other than Salford have never done me any harm, I don't care for them or dislike them in equal measures but unfortunately for them I expect they won't be afforded the same luxurious treatments of higher profile or development area clubs by our governing body. Salford will be given the boot & a reduced number of SL clubs ensues.
I might go back to the original post & read the link but I sort of know what to expect, I don't think this will end "and they all lived happily ever after"..........

Perhaps Manchester City could help, after all they throw £millions away on Balotelli and Nasri.

brilliant swifty, brilliant.
Seriously, tho' I'm no accountant, but, Salford have debts of £1.5 million, the council and Peel holdings were going to pay them off.
Right if they did, what then? Income v expenditure is still as it was. Not enough coming in v too much going out, so how long could they exist?
How long before another bail out?

| Did anyone hear Tony Rae's radio interview recently? Basically saying London Broncos will end up being the biggest SL club. This is why the game falters. No grip on reality whatsoever. The only message that comes out of the RFL is "aren't we doing great"?
I want to know who at KPMG gave their "considered" opinion on the clubs that were awarded a license. Two of them have effectively gone bust.

| The game is buggered at the top due to most SL clubs not run properly and cant afford to be fulltime clubs on and off the field. The SL clubs and the RFL then make stupid short term decisions which hurt the rest of the game to help the SL clubs. The clueless twins Wood and Rimmer keep supporting Sl at the expense of the rest of the game and make stupid decisions. The game cant continue the way things are and Wood and Rimmer should go. Sl in its current formation is not a viable option. Changes need to be made and a load of people need to go both at Clubs and the RFL. The game as a whle is way more important than SL. Sadly the RFL and SL clubs dont think that. I hope Salford survive but its not looking good

Should have left it there to be honest.
The game is going down the pan, Rugby Union is on an upwards spiral (so it seems) a booming 2015 Rugby Union World Cup, could that kill our game?

| Our game will survive - albeit perhaps on an even smaller scale. Sky will always find a slot in their scedule but may pay less. Heaven forbid that the numbnuts in SL will have to go semi-pro. Rugby Union will eventually rein in their chairmen because they too are afflicted by the stupidity bug.
Here's what happened - the RFL relaxed the 50% part of the salary cap rule. Stupid people in charge of clubs then did what they do best. The RFL have played a massive part in the collapse of these clubs but continue to wring their hands.
