ease up comrades

Much of this article is either taken from or coincides with an interview in Rugby League World.

The interview there makes it very obvious that he's not quitting: in fact he states that when he says he will succeed, he does.
He does not come over as a quitter: the opposite. He has survived being forced from his home in the 67 war, being a boy soldier in a civil war, realising that his degree was not going to get him his hoped objectives so upped it to a PhD so well that he was asked to become a lecturer, took up horse-racing and became very quickly one of the most successful owners ... all this in the interview
Yes he has not always had it his way but
let's not give up yet.

On the plus side, it's going to keep the frothing anti-Koukash brigade going for a few weeks at least.

So exclusive, Koukash told a room full of fans two days before.

Does anyone else feel this could be to put a bit of pressure on the RFL & SL about the salary cap? If he leaves that's be another team in crisis. I personally don't think there's anything to worry about. I really don't think he would just leave us high & dry, especially if he gets a piece of the stadium.

Pal I was told the exact same thing by a current Salford employee, he's doing this to the RFL up all the hard work it took to get Marwan into the game undone think they want him leavening any time soon, I think Marwan will get his own way in the end.

I don't think any quit threat strategy is wise in the public domain. What message does that give players the club are targeting for next year? Personally I'd be more than a little nervous commiting my future to any business if the owner was threatening to quit before I'd even joined them. Any threat of pulling out if the caps not raised should surely be made privately to the RFL.

That is exactly right theredshed.......whilst Koukash wants to make Salford a strong club all these threats of quitting and who and who your not signing arn't particularly good for the club. Much better he goes quietly about his business and delivers his promises, at that point bang his drum.

I'm wondering if the Doc comes out with some of the public statements he does what he says behind closed doors to the RFL. His business is business so he must see what a shambolic enterprise rugby league in this country is (you only have to look at the 3rd hair brained scheme for the restructuring of SL for evidence) and it wouldn't in the slightest surprise me if he doesn't instigate changes other than salary cap issues. I'd bet that he'd find a main title sponsor for the flagship competition in a world cup year.
