Kennedy could buy it...on behalf of sale lets hope eccles star has the wrong end of the stick...

If Kennedy was in a position to do so, he probably already would have. Although I could see him far from happy at the prospect of contributing financially to our coffers so could try to wrangle some kind of deal with Dr K/Peel/Council.

The Dr himself was confident enough to call a press conference and say things were pretty close to being done. It does not strike me that someone with his business eye would do anything like that if there was going to be a spanner in the works from Sale.

I may be wrong and we'll see.

Eccles star has just found another negative to post about and is clinging to it for dear life.

This from Jack Dearden on Twitter

I understand Salford takeover now likely to be confirmed next week . Great news for the City Reds and for Rugby League.

Foe is your friend people.

With the takeover dragging into next week, anyone know when we are likely to bite the bullet and put tickets for the Wigan game on sale?

According to club they can't sell tickets till deal done

Forthcoming Events:-
Salford City Reds V Wigan Worriors..

1st February 2013
Salford City Reds V Wigan Worriors Friday
1st Feb 8pm KO TICKETS ARE CURRENTLY NOT ON SALE

Dearden also said on the radio that if what he understands we have planned comes off, we'll definitely make the 8 this year.

Although I remember a live broadcast of the Rugby League hour from Walkabout in town in 2002 before that last weekend of the season when he said there's no way Salford would go down.

It is not going to happen over night that we will start challenging it will be building up a challenge maybe for next year

Can't see that we have a realistic chance of the eight as even if everything was sorted tomorrow it's doubtful all the planned signings could be brought in before the Wigan game let aloe be a team rather than strangers playing rugby together.

There was no way we should've gone down that year.. We dropped points against Widnes & Wakey, then after a miraculous win against Wire away , we bombed our chances against Cas , whilst Warrington ( who were then safe ) rolled over for Wakey to give them an easy 50 pointer , so technically he was right .
Feka, said we'd definately make the top 8 , anyone who quotes that now sends a shiver down my spine that we've tempted the gods of RL to on us from a great height .
I just want us to make round 2 without suffering alopecia..

Just read a quote from Nigel Wood that said the time scale was this week and that is still possible.

Seems Ming the merciless is quite adapt at liquidating and disolving companies, a simple check at director check freely gives this information.

He is in good ' company ' , few if any successful businessmen/Entrepreneurs have not got several liquidations to their name
