Good point RedTez. These are certainly exciting times to be a Salford fan. Got my Challenge Cup Final and Old Trafford seats booked already. When is it we play Wigan @ DW? Can't wait to see Sam dodge his way round the Wigan defence to send our travelling masses into hysteria.

He's has an interesting approach, although he will have to be careful, otherwise he may get his wrists slapped if someone starts to claim tapping up before the deadline.

In the end if he wants a big name to sign he may end up going for an aussie, who is due to retire but is prepared to give it one last season.

I don't think Salford would really want Morley and no one in SL is going to be able to offer Tomkins more than the NRL.

Roby is contracted for a few years yet.

But looking outside of the box, how about a return for Scott Moore to SL, a quality hooker, if a bit on the wild side??

Steady improvement, steady purchasing, its the same thing - You can't have one without the other.

Yes, Wire did it, Widnes and Hull are doing it, Salford are going to be doing it, only in a slightly more hurried manner....Like I said though, the problem you will find is that when the Doctor eventually collars a big name signing, he's going to be paying him a salary that will make Matt King's supposed big money deal look like pocket money - He'll then be left with peanuts to spread out among the rest of the squad.

I admire the ambition you are showing - Anything that makes the league more competitive can only be a good thing, but you get the impression that your new owner wants to be an Abramovich figure who wants a sudden overnight fix. Unfortunately, in a salary capped sport like RL, that's nigh on impossible.

If you need a decent accountant though, I hear Simon Moran has employed a belter in recent years....

Is 75k a year and a racehorse within the rules?

Not sure about racehorses, but unlimited concert tickets are definitely allowed....
