Quote: theredshed "Anybody with half a brain cell would realise that the club needs wealthy new investors to take us to the next level.
The existing board of directors have been immensely loyal and provided all the financial backing they can afford to allow us to punch above our weight for many years now. I’m sure they would gladly step aside for the greater good of this club if the right person/people wanted to invest big money into making Salford a future force in Superleague. The problem is no investors have been forthcoming so why be so critical of the people that have continually put their hands in their pockets to make Salford stronger than the revenue it generates? I wonder how some detractors would react to endless, ignorant, criticism if you were the one’s digging as deep as they have over many years?
I find it quite amusing how some folk think they have all the answers when they are only observing from afar. I suppose it’s instinctive to want to blame somebody/something but I’d suggest looking at the wealthy Salfordians who don’t sponsor or financially support their local club or their local community before the one’s that do.
Think about it?'"
It's a line of 'debate' that's as old as this forum and many are bored of pointing out the very obvious flaw in the 'replace them all' theory.
There's contibutors here that can gladly bemoan every facet of the club but have zero interest in finding/proposing solutions with any greater detail than 'better'.
Happily I'm now immune to the embarrasment I used to feel on others' behalf for these uninformed splurges. They're quite avoidable once you start recognising a few usernames.
