| We are very fortunate we have a board of directors who have shouldered the expense for so long, hopefully this is the start of something big and the financial strain will not be so heavy in the future

in saying that when we move to Barton next season we must do well and become a regular play-off club before the time comes round again in 2015.[/i

Is it not both up to the board to sort that though? At Salford you do seem to have good commuted owners but like Widnes in the past a lot of problems brought onto the club was through their mismangement also?
How will the new stadium work? If now council built will that lead to paying rent and missing out on bar takings? (again same as us). Was money saved from the council taking over to be spent elsewhere or did it never exist?
Just general interest btw as thing you'll becsafe as stadium pushing ahead and likely with it a final play at the location card? Just interesting owed to BOD when could also cause problems.

| I feel a lot better now about it now than I did at the beginning of the season. With work on the new stadium well under way and given the problems that Wakefield have faced, I can't see anything other than us being given another 3 years.

simpsons/PDT13.gif I SEE THE SALFORD REDS ARE RISING!
bring on 22nd July:simpsons/PDT13.gif |
|
| imo I dont think widnes deserve to go up!
the reason being "this" club is only 3 years old after going into administration. All the widnes fans are going on about history, tradition. That died when they went to the wall. This is a new club so therefore should be treated as such!!
Me personally wouldn't mind seeing barrow in, think super league is crying out for a cumbrian team, but barrow just haven't got the finance to do it!

Compare the club to any other 3 years old I'd say it's pretty good, no? Not a bad set up for just 3 years? How old is yours? Wakey in SL yet only 2 months old!

| No I'm not in the least bit nervous. I must admit I was extremely nervous last time around and I would feel the same again but for our new stadium now being built.
Personally I think there is an imbalance in Superleague with too many yorkshire clubs and i feel one of them will miss out. Wakefield and Castleford have really let down the RL with years of false promises about new stadia and no result (Probably through no fault of their own). I feel this will give both clubs a big black mark. Further to this Wakey went into administration and Castleford are now offering timely' big spin' with further promises due to all the setbacks and the RL will see straight through their desperate exaggerations. This 50 million ground sale must be the spin of the century, I read on the Cas forum they are selling Whelden Road for no more than 6m-6.5m and the rest must include the cost of the supermarket, the new stadium and god knows what else they can add to it. I'm sure both clubs will eventually get new stadiums but I can't see either happening before 2013.
I was of the same opinion last time around that Superleague can't afford two teams so close together, especially considering it's not a massively populated area. My opinion hasn't changed and before someone mentions Hull I see them as stronger clubs financially with both clubs attracting good support over the years.
I think the RL will consider Salford to have more potential for attracting new support in a new stadium in a more prominent area of Greater Manchester, offering such a large conurbation of potential. This said if we do get the new license it's up to the club to fully maximise the opportunity a new stadium could offer or I fear we could be a future casualty in 2014.
As much as I've always liked Wakefield as a club If I was a betting man my money would firmly be on them losing out this time around. (On the grounds they have two black marks to Castleford's one, plus Cas are a stronger team than Wakey at this moment)

They should never have been in in the first place and now FFS we have Widnes coming in (allegedly) a club about 20 miles from Wrexham.

I agree but I just know it won't happen. The Crusaders, Catalans and Quins are here to stay despite what many feel about them with their special priviledges. Is sport not meant to be a level playing field?

No problem with Quins, great day out and they are producing players.
Catalans the same plus it has RL heritage.
Crusaders....
fkin waste of space, Bridgend was a $hithole and Wrexham is the same.
3 years of lies and RL funding, utter disgrace
