Out of interest, who exactly is in the 'Head in the sand' crew?

It's a genuine question and not an y retort.

Legally, does it matter that the name of the company bringing this petition against the club is spelled wrong on the notice?

Sure the RFL and SL will be loading vans with bags of cash as we type before hot footing it over the Pennines to bail you out ala Bradford.

If not, WHY NOT? Cos that would stink to high heaven and smack of double standards if you ask me, are the RFL saying Salford are not as important as Bradford? People keep telling me the RFL are not bent or biased, time will tell.

Seriously hope all ends well for you guys

No one has suggested it is a tax bill. We're all fully aware that it isn't a tax bill. Iain was just using an example of a previous petition brought against the club.

Do you think they will?

Those who have been going for 5 minutes and have a pop at anybody with a realistic view as oppose to just thinking that everything Salford is wonderful.

So if it's over a 'Small' amount of money....

[size=200PAY IT !!![/size

I wonder what a multi-millionaire's definition of a 'small' amount of money is?

Nobody takes you to court over a small amount of money least of all your advisor and sponsor, in this case Steuer Gregsson but it would seem in this instance that is the case.

This is a real shame if it causes the loss of one of our Rugby League clubs and i really do mean that.You would hope the RFL come in with some package to assist Salford just as they have Bradford. It could well be a blessing in disguise if the petition goes through and the club is liquidated as at least it gives any new owner a blank canvas to work with.

I have a number of good friends who loyaly watch your club and I trust it gets sorted out for there sake as much as anything else.

It hasn't been forgotten that last season the Salford club gave us a base from which we had our most sucessful season in years, so i do wish you club all the best.

An explanation of what a winding up petition is, how it works and how much it costs here:

Indeed - I would expect that the rfl give the same assistance to Salford as they have to Bradford. I really cant see how they can do anything else tbh- without losing every scrap of credibility that remains. So no players to be sold and help with wages. Hopefully this will encourage the supporters to come out and buy tickets etc.
Hope all goes well guys.

Shocking, the club brings in a company to prepare for new investment and they in turn issue a winding up order, I'm guessing they've not been paid for the work they've done.

It really is shocking - I wish we as fans could set up a breakaway club or buy this lot out - Salford in the conference is better than no Salford.

This may not be for a large amount - but its the second one in the last 12-18 months (after the revenue brought one)
