But Paul Cullen built most of the team that eventually broke through under Smith. I'm very happy with Warrington's record since 2009 but the fact remains that we still haven't won SL. Maybe we had some bad luck with injuries in last year's final but that just proves how damn difficult it is to become champions. |

I was wondering whether he is as wealthy as he appears? It all seems odd to me. |

the beauty of money with a middle eastern influence....who cares, there's loads of it 
Horse racing and particularly, Race Horse ownership is not a game for those without very deep pockets......he has wedge and in reality, nobody knows where it comes from other than him and his accountant! |

Bloody ell mate you can't half see the jealousy And resentment in your posts, a lot of you are underestimating the Salford public, don't forget all those clubs like Bradford Wigan Leeds Wire Hull saints have all had recent success so fans from those areas have a attractive proposition and a wanting to see their team (who very likely) can get to a final or win one again that's what gets them off their backsides to go.
At Salford the public have seen worse than s*it for over 25/30 years how the hell can anybody blame fans for not going, if they see a team worth watching they'll go and watch simple as that. Instead of trying to pick the Salford club apart in a childish jelous way, it would be better if people just kept quiet and wished them luck.
Everybody knows eventually Salford will do something, with a chairman with a personal wealth of £600million he's by far the richest guy in rugby league and he's not afraid to spend it, which is good for the game, and not a lot of people will realise but they will, that Marwan is the man that eventually will drag rugby league up by the scruff of its neck and finally make sure it is run and promoted in the correct way.

As a Salfordian who remembers the days BEFORE Watkins, Charlton etc., I am happy to go along with the ride.
13 months ago, I did not have a club that could stay in Super League. Today, I have a club that is challenging for the play-offs.
In the past, I have seen a fine crop of youngsters flourish under Hunte but wondered how many we could keep. now I know they will want to stay as we are increasingly being seen as having potential to be very successful: players want to be part of that.
Finally, I want a chairman who aims high, who pushes us into the limelight. Many of you attend the Magic weekend and/or the Grand final and then go home. You enjoy the occasion and the buzz. You see RL as important.
The Rugby league fans who live in the conurbation have 24 hours of football talk and media. They get four/five /six pages in the MEN. We live with a column or two every few days: often less than Sale gets. The good doctor is making inroads into that.
