"The Golden Generation finally has its Golden Fleece! They have Wembley Cup Final winners medals to add to their collection." 23/08/2014:



Koukash actually needs to start delivering on some of his 'latest great idea' otherwise he'll go from 'out of the box visionary' to 'attention seeking boy who cried wolf'.....with some he's already become that person.

It seems that some people can't separate the idea from the person delivering it. Delivering judgement based on their personal feelings of MK, rather than looking and judging the idea on paper.

I see nothing wrong with floating ideas around at expanding our sport. At least it means people are thinking of the future even if they will never surface. It gives food for thought.

Dismiss the idea, and why. Not dismiss it because you don't like the person saying it.

Of course we can't seperate the idea from the guy delivering it......because that's what hinges on the chances of it happening, and he's developing a track record of coming up with bold statements and ideas on a monthly basis.

That's like saying people can't seperate a team's chances with who their coach happens to be.....he's going to be the guy responsible for making it happen and even if the team looks good, if there's doubts about the coach then people will be septical.

Im a big fan of Koukash, I think this idea is terrible.

It would hugely undermine Super League, like the celebrations of the success of Graham and Burgess, I have no idea why people are so supportive of the best players SL produces not playing in SL.

Im all for closer integration of the two competitions, hell I'd love it if we moved to a global comp with conferences of which SL was one and I think it would be easily achievable. I just think this idea would hugely damage SL.

No.

People should discuss it as an idea on paper, because that's what it is. I don't think it's supposed to be a full-on, 900 page report detailing every possible minutiae of cause and effect. It's not like it's going to happen anyway...

I think it's just an idea to test the water without fear of anything coming to light, and fwiw I think it would be a bad idea at the moment too.

it's hard enough for clubs with an identity, a history and a fan base to attract fans. What chance has a parachuted team playing all over the place got..??

The 'secret' of Wasps' success? I could guess a few factors:

1. They were a winning side before their move.
2. They won their first two home games convincingly, scoring tries too, even!
3. In the Midlands, they are moving to a RU-popular area.
4. They are probably bringing a fair few London fans up to Coventry
5. It's early days, we don't know if this honeymoon will last.

Quote: moto748 "The 'secret' of Wasps' success? I could guess a few factors

They have the visit of Leicester Tigers to come, which I would suggest will hit 32k, Harlequins and Gloucester will be well followed, so Sarries and Exeter will be lower unless marketed well. Remember, they own their ground now so are in control of all aspects of match day revenue........they used to make 1 pound per fan at Wycombe.
6,374 - 5,568 - 7,397 - 5,842 - 28,254 - 15,343 are there attendances in the AP this season so far. 6,265 average pre their move, 11,463 after it. 82% up with 5 games to play........I'd say that they will average close to 16k this year......I've just gone on their site and it looks like the Harlequins game is going to be 28k+ based on a rough look at the available seats left. they were a score each, so half a million on the gate up from 1 pound a fan at Wycombe....they will be spending a large wedge on marketing.

Back to Mad Marwan.
I'd suggest he a) sorts out his own club before he starts looking to create a new franchise in the NRL and b) follow through on his promise to buy an NRL club. He's a breath of fresh air, but he's also off his rocker if he thinks that the NRL clubs will be happy flying their charges 25,000km's for 1 game in a regular season. What happens if this English side rip it up....you'd have finals matches on at 7am......yeah, 9, 7, Fox and Sky NZ will love that d040.gif d040.gif d040.gif

It is an idea yes, but with his name plastered all over it and like you said, it's not going to happen anyway. So all he's doing with his repeated ideas and dreams that won't even come close to reality is turning himself in a characterchure of 'Marwan and his latest plan' that after a while will see him taken about as seriously as 'Phil Clarke and his latest stats/result prediction theory'.

I know Salford fans think anybody who knocks him must be because there jealous but reality is, I like most do kinda like the guy and he is a breathe of fresh air......but by god he's got to reign himself in a bit. At least get Salford right before mouthing off about other things, especially the NRL.
