• First and foremost I think he’s a liar. He is a Doctor of Engineering and has a Masters in bull, What happened to all his promises? I mean wasn’t he going to sue Gareth Hock and Leigh, if they played him against us in the cup? Club shop / state of the art academy / NRL team / Young talent never leaving again – the list is actually endless.

• I don’t think he’s put as much money into the club as he makes out,. As far as I am aware he hasn't paid a penny back of the inherited cva, I believe it is actually deferred till December. It is then he has to start paying back the large sum owed to council. Any coincidence that he is now looking to jump ship, months before it is due? I also think the reason for not changing the club badge on the stadium following the re-brand is purely a money issue.

• He is impossible to work for, coaching staff / to players do I blame anyone for leaving, no. Do I believe the players when they tell stories of him not paying? Absolutely.

• The RFL agenda is tiresome, im beginning to think he’s exaggerating it so he has a ‘reason to leave’

• He appointed his own independent tribunal and still lost, but he continues to blame the RFL?

• He has absolutely no marketing strategy what so ever, he is reactive rather than proactive. If he thinks fans really have no excuse because he has reduced tickets to £10 for a relegation battle with London, he is more insane than I thought.

• Attendances have dropped to an all-time low, after the points deduction which may I add was HIS fault. And now he is blaming the fans, again I think the reason he is highlighting this is so he has an excuse to why he has jumped ship.

• When confronted with any serious questions ie his interview with Dave Woods on backchat, he makes a joke of it. When faced with difficult and challenging questions on social media he will block you. And you don’t even have to abuse him, it’s just that he doesn’t agree with you! I have asked him for an interview when he leaves, as I have many a question I would like answering. Will he take me up on it, I very much doubt it.

• In fact didn’t he once make a ridiculous suggestion that the council actually owe Salford £800k – what ever happened to that?


I mean he himself said he has been a miserable failure as owner of Salford, well he is bang on there.

Maybe purchasing the stadium should've been number 1 on the list, as it was never going to happen, lip service just like the original points 1-3.

Who knows if he'd have gone about things the right way, gotten the rebrand right, got the right coach (TS) in from the start, employed a proven chief exec, things could've been a hell of a lot different right now 3 years down the line.
All hindsight I know but crowds could've been easily averaging 7k and Koukash may have realised his dream this season.
Instead, yes we have had a great team this year and played the best rugby for as long as I can remember but where are we.....
1. Probably in the MPG with the potential of relegation.
2. The owner leaving.
3. Most of our current squad which we've finally managed to see playing as a team will probably leave.

Oh what it's like to be a Salford fan.

Sheens was is man to sort it out.Sheens goes because he as faith in Ian Watson.
If Koucash told you Manchester was in England you would right away go and consult a map.The only thing you can't blame him for is the ground situation.That is down to purely and simply Mr Salford.

I have it on very very good authority he puts in £45000 a week into the club to keep it afloat and had had to since he took over. Don't ask me how it's so much as I questioned it too but there it is. I also know that he felt very loyal to sheens and would have definitely stayed at least until his contract was up.... Now he's gone??

The CVA is being paid off as a liability of the club, which Koukash certainly keeps afloat. The repayment is circa £25,000 a month, and considerable administrative and legal fees are added every year. The proof of this is on the Companies House website.

However, you are right – payments were suspended in August last year with the agreement of the creditors in the CVA. The suspension can last no later than December 2016.
