You see, people are quick to say thing like "He's all talk" and "He'll be off as soon as he's bored." but all the above, if true, show that he's dedicated to the longevity of the sport in the area.

If this bit is true, then he's going way beyond the line of duty as a SL chairman. Well done MarwanK.

That isn't exactly Marwan's fault is it. I agree the stadium was poorly thought out by Peel Holdings and Salford City Council, but he is doing a fine job of making a go of it.



South Sydney, St George and the Roosters don't seem to mind.

That's because we are paying them about £170k to come and play. Will the Dr pay each team £170k to play his team ?

This is what I mean.

There is the PR side which is get anything in the press, no matter whether there is a plan behind it.

Then there is the actual side, which is more business savey.

He has to come out and say we will finish top 4 in 2014 and buy SBW and Sam Tomkins etc. Why? Because he has to raise the profile of the club to actually get his hands on actual players like locke etc.

I am trying to be respectful to Salford, but basically they were no were near the top 8 and so not an attractive proposition for ambitious players. Yet if those players see talk of big names going, there can be a buzz created that will make players move.

It's a bit of the old look at this hand, whilst in my other hand something different is going on.

come on some people are being too nice ....he's full of it....

delivered not a one of his outlandish self serving publicity seeking statements.....

here's yesterdays latest tery.......
bear in mind his previous was he wanted ownership of an NRL club by the start of this season...

Why doesn't he move salford to leeds then? The guy is a complete idiot with no understanding of sport and history.

Simple answer, as you'll be at the match tonight: approach him and ask him.

He's very approachable.

It's blatant you don't like him. That's your choice. Fair enough. Forums would be dull if people did not express opinions. However, I find it quite odd, to be honest. Why would you have such strong opinions and post so much on this thread about an individual who owns another club?

I honestly don't care what owners of other clubs say.

I didn't start the thread. I'm postiñg like everyone else has on this thread. I'm a honest guy and say what I think.

I've nothing against the man personally as I don't know him. I do think he comes out with some utter rubbish.

What's he's done at salford is unreal. He's pumped money into the club and saved a good rugby club from going bust. I really applaud him for that.

I just think he needs good rugby league men around him to advise him before he opens his mouth.

I'm not sure that Dr is a genuine twitter account.

It is.
