Quote: bewareshadows "Are you suggesting people are not whinging because he bought salford?
People are whinging because he came charging into the sport running his mouth off. He's pretty brash and likes to play to it "My name is Marwan Koukash"!
It's nothing to do with Salford as a club. Not for me personally anyway. When Salford have been in financial troubles I've only wanted to see them come out the other side. I'm glad they've got some cash in their pocket and I hope that a few more money men will arrive in the sport to take a shot at glory. My only reservation would be that if he doesn't get the success he craves that he will be off and potentially Salford will be in an even worse position than when he arrived, with the same income but much higher outgoings.
As for this idea that no one questions other teams re. the cap. Wigan have been questioned every year since they bought their way out of relegation. The vitriol meted out on Koukash and his band of merry Red Devils is nothing compared to what was dished out following Stuart Fielden's purchase.
Take the stick, laugh it off. That is what fans of top teams tend to have to do (not that I have ever experienced this).
Quote: Madderzahatter "The RFL should have asked this guy to buy London. If those players he signed for Salford would have signed for Broncos that would have been awesome for the game down south. But people would have still found a reason to whinge...'"
well when you think about it, him buying the Broncos would've been a good marketing angle
