I find it embarrassing when people call him Kockrash and Kashcow too. I like to think petty name calling should be left to the children and not supposedly grown adults.'"
But the 'good Dr' probably likes it. Sometimes in sport winning enemies can be just as vital as winning allies.

| Don't like him.
Don't like his attitude.
My opinion, everyone has one.
I won't lose any sleep over it either.
Moving on.

| i wonder how many salford fans would of been in favour of a salary cap rise in 2012? youre only upset now because your chairman is unable to spend all his money. 2 years ago you were moaning that the big teams were poaching all your players, but now you have the cash to do so yourself youre very happy... strange that

Actually, I think you'll find that most Salford fans would have shrugged their shoulders at any salary cap rise due to the fact that we already couldn't afford to spend up to the cap anyway, the one time we did (in 2012), the players we recruited all let us down badly and it nearly put us out of business, any increase in the Salary Cap that year probably wouldn't have made a blind bit of difference to what happened (just as any increase this year probably wouldn't have made any difference to London or the Bulls situation). The reality was that our youngsters were continually poached anyway and the quality of player we could attract was sub standard for achieving anything in SL. Any increase in the Salary Cap at that time couldn't have made that situation worse. Contrary to your supposition as well, we aren't upset because our chairman is unable to spend all his money (indeed the salary cap would have to go up at least 200 times over before Marwan was in any danger of spending all his money).
However, you're correct that now (thanks to Marwan) we still have a team to support, have the means to compete and stop the likes of Leeds picking up 'homesick' players and Warrington picking off youngsters we wanted to keep and might have stayed if we had enough money and ambition, we are much happier, nothing strange about that at all.

Utter tripe.
As another Salford poster has alluded to, most of us wouldn't have given a toss as it would have made no difference to what was happening at our Club at that time. As for poaching, that's just your uneducated opinion and is backed-up by no facts whatsoever...Strange that.

| As reflected in this thread, I always thought this forum had the more reasonable, erudite and knowledgable fans on RLFANS. Middleton being the obvious exception, of course.

| just over 5k?
Maybe Marwan should put more effort into attracting a decent crowd rather than gobbing off every 5 minutes?
If those crowds don't improve he won't be here in 3/4 years.

so salford fans have never moaned about the "big" clubs poaching their players? you sure about that? and the salary cap is directly linked to this comment. had the cap been larger, you would of had a lot more players become "homesick" and would of moved on, as "bigger" clubs can afford to sign up more players.
i very much doubt you wouldnt have moaned. but you have Marwan now, so its pointless and you can claim that you have always been in favour of a raised cap since day dot. doesnt make your comment, or that of the other fellow, smell any rosier!

I agree. He went up in my estimation as a result.

I think he does the latter to try and address the former mate.

| G-I think he needs a new marketing strategy then mate because stamping his feet or blaming Wood/McManus every time he doesn't get his own way is hardly going to get the locals thinking lets get down there and start supporting Salford!
Imo of course!
