Quote: gutterfax "told in July 2011 with half a sports stadium built and the fat bills that will go with it....I suspect that if clubs have foundations dug, girders in place and 500 or so blokes in hard hats running around by April, then the RFL will find it very hard to kick them out.
'"


good news for the Polish.

I will believe it when I see it with Cas ground. For years they have been going on about moving to glasshoughton they should have been in there years ago. Yet still nothing expect a knackered sign.

Quote: Wellsy13 "At the moment, one. But I'm pretty sure that they'd sort out a tenancy agreement with someone for their license (which is apparently something that Leigh didn't do if that's to be believed).

And it's all irrelevant anyway. SL would let Saints in even if they played on a park field. They hit all the other targets very well.'"


I’ve no doubt Leigh would have had some kind of agreement with LSV Co, they didn’t arrange the build of a stadium, get planning permission etc on the hope that they’d find an end user.

But that’s not how it works. In a previous life I was the involved in a major build (a production facility), we were purchasing it, and paid agreed stage payments to the builders, but I didn’t sign the final agreement and payment until almost 12 months after we’d moved in, and only then did it legally become ours.

Only last year Leigh East (2yrs plus after moving in) were up before the council and threatened to be kicked out of LSV because they still hadn’t signed their agreement. Why and as to whether its been signed now you’d have to ask others.

Is that a "no" then?

I'm not sure what Salford had to do with the question, but if Salford lied then they showed amazing foresight in a sport known for moving goalposts to start the lie nearly 10 years before franchising was announced.

kcab sfrawdder 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

Iain , I have no wish to get involved in an argument , Was our application poor ? , who knows , only the RFL as they are the only ones who saw all of them , although it did cost a lot of money and had ' Deloittes ' doing the financials

You know what I am reffering to as regards Salford , the demise of Red City Develoments the day after the announcements was shall , we say , ' convenient ' to say the least icon_wink.gif

Maybe we told the truth , and others were a bit more ' creative ' , that might have been our downfall

Was Leighs even read? Judging by the bollox spouted by Lewis on Granada Reports around that time it didn't seem to have been. All in the past now. As for Salford starting the lie 10 years + earlier, that was because it was expected that some of the new sky money was to be spent on facilities. None of it was and Salford weren't alone in the giving of empty promises.
