The moment there is a negative you're back.
Go away.

| Alledged salary cap breaches and the RFL seemingly not following up a blatant breach.

| Mario returns!
Just in time for a negative vibe to strike.
MK seems a little bemused by it on Twitter. Looks more like a case of bitter blood between individuals than anything actually worth looking at...

| The Salford Scene (John Gilbert Reds on here, I believe) is suggesting on twitter that we could potentially face a 20 point reduction.

Go back to supporting Wigan.
You've contributed absolutely nothing on here for months. Since the last 'wobble in fortunes' the Club went through in fact. You're a tiresome, horrible individual with no redeeming features that I can see from the guff that you post on here.
I've read the article and it's basically just Bradford having a pop about nothing that really has anything to do with them. There's some irony that it should come from Bradford, but that's another story...

If true the RFL have a dilemma. If 20 pts deducted now then Reds simply focus on the Challenge Cup in pt 1 of season and then start the 8s with a clean slate. RFL could wait and see if the reds drop to the middle 8s THEN deduct the points condemning the reds to certain relegation.
The suggested delay could be due to no case to answer or more cases to answer.

This is exactly what I thought when I heard that a points deduction could happen. The RFL will need to think carefully about any points deduction these days unless the team are pretty much certain of getting past the 0 mark. If not then I'd have to suggest that they start with the amount of points they have on the board if deducted.

| As per us, middle 8's make it redundant anyway. Your season would be like ours last year, but a few matches earlier. All you lose is a pop at the top eight and crowd revenue.
Unless Bulls are clamouring to take your place, and that is why they are angry, because the delay (if there is one) has made it impossible.

| So someone from Bradford has dragged up an old case where Salford were already found not guilty in a court of law? Hardly HUGE. Hardly bringing the game into meltdown or rocking it to the core, as suggested on Twitter yesterday. Absolute bobbins.

| Its whats come out from the case thats the issue. As quoted regarding Tony P he had a 2nd contract for around 40k paid by a company. If this is the case for all players and not declared on cap(if it was why the need). As an example of this. Say 25 players all paid 40k by a 2nd contract could be a breach of 1mill. Could also explain why players are chasing club for money.

Courts do not investigate Salary Cap issues. It could take the RFL a while with the myriad of MK companies that have been started up and dissolved in the past 2/3 years. I assume they will also have to speak to all the players, especially the ones who have moved to a lower salary despite being offered more to stay at their previous club.
The RFL must come out and say that everything is hunky dory and they have not found anything untoward or announce the conclusion to the investigation along with punishments before the new season starts.
