Without Marwan Koukash, Salford would by now have been consigned to history. Is that what the Cas fans really want. I would love to see a Salford v Cas Challenge Cup final or Grand Final in the next few years. Our chance to make up for 1969 and all that.

Far from it squire, i wish you all the best, just sit back and enjoy the ride with koukash.

I thought it was quite funny, lol.

See that has a bit of dignity where as some of the bile I've seen spewed is pretty shocking. I know it's been done to death but look how many times in the passed few seasons it's a been done to us. I hope you buy wisely with what you've had for Chase but also that some of it goes towards education in the borough as obviously some of the social dullards you have coming on here need it.

I apologise on behalf of the massive majority of Cas fans after seeing some of the comments on the other forum as it does not represent us at all. I hope those sad acts on there grow up and stop being pathetic little kids.

To draw comparisons between the signings of Tim smith and rangi chase is unfair. One was done quickly and out if the public glare with a club who is desperate for cash. The other has been a long and protracted courtship which has unsettled both the player and a number of fans; add to that some unnecessary and unsavoury acts such as naming horses, wearing masks and cheering against your own team when said player scores (very disrespectful to those currently pulling on the Salford shirt in my opinion).
I'm not advocating some of the quite ridiculous and ignorant responses by certain fans from Cas, merely pointing out possible reasons for them. As is regularly pointed out Salford have had players tapped up when you were struggling and should understand more than most that its not a nice thing to see/experience so I would have personally displayed a little more graciousness, rather than the general mood of two wrongs making a right.
Personally I'm sad to see rangi go as he has been quite simply breathtaking to watch and I wish him all the best. He is too talented to finish his career without medals in my opinion.
To all Salford fans, if he does actually sign for you; give him your support and he will definitely repay you. Brace yourselves, you're about to witness things you didn't know we're possibly with a rugby ball!

Bloomin iPhone! No-one deserves to have to read that twice!

So with all these great signings will the salford public actually get off their backsides and go to games rather than hype everything up from the comfort of their pc's? Or will Koukash be sick to the back teeth of seeing an empty stadium? Will you top 6k a game?
