We were all but dead 9 months ago so this would not change our position one jot. We'll enjoy the ride while it lasts.

Absolute worst case, they're back where they were when he rode to the rescue.

They might as well enjoy it as much as they can for as long as it lasts - the longer the better, obviously. Exciting times to be a Salford fan.

He has said since day one that he plans to make the club sustainable in the long term without his handouts. He has spoken of a desire to develop income generating schemes on the land around the stadium that will yield revenue for the club into the future. We may hear more about that on Thursday. He may have been naive with some of his comments since arriving, but I don't think he's under any illusions about the task he took on.

Rather es on his bonfire of a big announcement though.

Assembled journos "Yeah we'd worked Chase out, Marwan...."

Even without the horse, it's not exactly going to be a massive bombshell. I'm still not going to let myself think we've actually got him until Thursday's announcement, but if it happens it'll just be confirming RL's current worst kept secret. Some journalists have been writing on the basis that he's already signed for weeks.

I don't remember Hull FC looking after themselves before the RFL gave them Gateshead.
Anyway,if you listen to the first press conference you may have a clearer picture.
Could you perhaps enlighten me on how you believe Dr Koukash to be brash ?
He wants more investment into the sport which you agree is good.
As he is a businessman why should he want out.Despite the doubters from the word go he has speculated to accumulate by signing players to form a competitive side.
Bigger clubs have been run correctly over a lengthy period of time.He alluded to St Helens on his arrival.
He has willingly taken over a club that has not been run correctly over a lengthy period of time.
It appears the more people who doubt him the more determined he is to prove them wrong and it seems he gets things done as quickly as some of his winning horses run.
A club,worse than any amateur sports club,suddenly feels uber-professional.
Thursday will confirm this.

Rangi Chase is running in the 13:00 Betfred Salford Red Devils' Foundation E.B.F. Maiden Stakes

Brian Noble is running in the 15:00 Betfred Salford Red Devils' 'Tackle Health' E.B.F. Maiden Stakes

Both at haydock on Thursday




Love him or hate him hes good for the sport. If Salford do become a super power put them with Huddersfield who are going from strength to strength at the moment it turns the BIG 4 into the BIG 6. If the format and structure of the league is sorted out it really could give the game a massive boost.

I wonder if Rangi Chase and Brian Noble are being paid any 'naming rights' fees for their names to be used?

Of course, one would assume if they were, this would have nothing to do with the Salford Rugby club or their salary cap.

Nice angle

Nail hit firmly on the head whilst not all fans of all clubs are Bitter twisted and jealous there certainly is a large percentage that are.
