Christ 10 and then we've already got Dixon and shaken hands with Gleeson that's a lot of new faces. Are we still looking at the Wigan lads? think someone said on another thread but promising as Sunday was I still think we need two or three real grafters in the front row and you'd hope that Andrew Chalmers knows a few decent available players down under as to my reckoning we have all our quota spots available.

At this rate, the Club will be unrecognizable within a month...

I hope I haven't tempted fate...?

Butcher tempting fate is a load of rubbish. The guy has come out in public saying he wants to take us over and make us successful oh and he says the deal should be done in days? if that's not something to be posotive about what is?

......you would think wouldn't you

I`m with The Butcher on this Red League. The fat lady is only gargling at the moment - we all want her to sing of course ..................but she aint at the mo. This is Salford and the Doctor will no doubt be dotting every i & crossing every t. I just wonder whether `eccles star` will now be buying a Season Ticket.

Of course I get your points too, the thing that's done it for me is how he's come out in public with his intentions for the club, he's spoke to phil on the phone about the future and Andrew chalmers was at the ground talking about possible signing, this isn't speculation this is FACT!

Now why would you do that? you've gone and ruined the excitement for me it's nearly enough to make me want everything to go Nipples North.

The main reason for everybody to want this more than anything, is not for the good of the Club, or the fans. It's to see what in the world Philyournappy will post about once JW is gone and he can no longer surf the Turkey for his angers...

2 things

That post by stuffer a couple of pages ago was one of the best posts I've ever read on here, absolutely captures my expectations, but of course hoping I'm wrong. Secondly just want to say big thanks to Phil Vievers for the way he's handled himself during the whole dismal affair. He's been Tremendous

Ok 3 things, despite expecting it all to go wrong I am starting to get genuinely excited now!

Phil Veivers;- pretty much the unsung hero through all this. how he's managed to hold the squad together and keep things ticking over and upbeat through all of this is beyond my comprehension.

If we do make it to the start of the season unscathed he could be a contender for coach of the season before we've made a tackle.

I think Phil deserves a bit of a break tbh. He's not had the easiest time as a coach after waiting patiently in the wings for so many years. The things he's had to contend with would challenge seasoned coaches to the limit and he's come out of it with much credit. I just hope he gets the chance, along with Sean, to do what they want to do with the players they really want. Could be on the cusp of exciting times...

and Highton ... understood he's been a brick for the players.

However again well done to Mr Veivers
and I hope he writes an autoboigraphy some time: the story of the years 2010-13 would be too impossible even for a soap.

How's about...... "Kash, aaaaaaahhhh, he's the saviour of the Salford Reds"?! (to the Flash Gordon tune,obviously)
