| 3 way share with yourselves, Sale and FC UTD
But they have to change their names as part of the deal
So we have Salford City Reds RLFC,
Salford Sharks RUFC
FC UTD of Salford
Then people will say there's Salfords stadium over there.
Joint market each other and give discounts, united you are strong.

| "Salford Council will put our interests first."
Why?
Which political mix?
Under what financial pressure from central Government (who provide, with Europe, over 4/5ths of the money Salford can spend)?
"Can't be d reading through every post, but I'd bet that at least one person has mentioned something along the lines of they work with a Stockport fan and Sale are the devil. Am I correct?"
No ... work with loads of Sale and some Stockport fans. Sup, on way home (naughty but nice) (when I can) in the Olde Vic so think I meet a fair number of Sharks.
No issues with any of the fans. None ... admire them to be honest. Have issues with Kennedy and with the future of RU and their flagship league.

| Load of scare mongering for me with the negative comments byt some Stockport fans as as a none football fan looking in it seems that a dieing club are being left to die a natural death.
Can't for the life of me see Wilky selling to anyone without cast iron agrements about Salfords long term future as without doubt he has the club and fans best interests at heart.
And I'll repeate what I've often said that a bit of common sense on the marketing side, coaching side and admimistration side would help both teams. I mean how many tim es have we on here slated the club for thier shocking advertising or amaturish way they run certain things and I'd doubt that Sale opperate that way. and can anyone see any disadvantage towards a common brains trust on the trining and development side? even if it's help with our kicking game there are benefits to be had.

| As I have said before I welcome the opportunity to utilise the potential of increasing our fan base, lets get real 2500 fans & falling, if you think this is going to support this stadium you are not in the real world.
Having a new stadium will not generate an increase our fan base, improving the products on offer will? We need to accept we have a community stadium, we don't carry much sway, we need to thank Salford council for backing the project as without them we would not even be debating maybe a new tenant, I for one welcome rugby 12 months of the year "bring it on"

If that's the case, then don't let one person sway your opinion.
Always enjoyed going to Stockport as it's down the road from Wythenshawe, but I've had about enough of it now. Their fans are very one dimensional, and although they have indeed been f*cked over along the way (not necessarily saying Sale have done it to them, though Kennedy isn't my favourite person either) - they can't do anything but blame anybody else. At the end of the day, they weren't blaming us 3 years ago this week when they got promoted to League 1, were they? A lot has happened to them and it's not black and white, but we don't dictate what they do on the pitch
The sad thing is that a load of their fans just can't see past the powers that be doing things they don't like and decide take it out on Sale's fans. Some of the stories about before and after a Sale home game are reminiscent of 1970's Football matches. They don't happen very often but there are verbal and sometimes physical attacks by idiots.
I still have some respect for Stockport County as a Football club and I'd hate to see them disappear completely. But in terms of the relationship between the 2 clubs it has run it's course
I personally look forward to a ground share with Salford. But you're all fairly intelligent people, I'm sure. So don't let a couple of people scare you off because they think Kennedy will want to make the ground his and make you 2nd class citizens. Your chairman has been quite vocal since the development of the ground about the hard work you've put into it and not wanting that to be taken over by somebody - and quite right.
We're not a bad bunch and we're only on the doorstep. We're both competing with a couple of small teams called United and City, don't know if you've heard of them - so IF it does happen I think we all need to stick together.
Be nice to have a modern ground with great facilities - and not to mention standing areas!'"
Would be nice to have a nice new modern stadium would it with a nice boardroom where the owner of the club skips half the stuff then charges you to use the room. Nice to have hospitality areas and get charged through the nose to use them. If sale continue as they have been doing kennedy will pull the plug as he pumps in £1 million a season for a team finishing tenth. Once again putting the rent up when he said he wouldnt has alianated sale sharks even more with stockport. Shame heywood road cant be developed.

Great idea, and actually agree.

I am sure G.T would answer this question, but i am sure F.C. Utd are having there own ground built. So it will be us and Sale then unless Utd reserves would play there instead.At the end of the day as been said before, it ISNT our stadium so it would be up to the council and Peel and i am sure that they will want the money that they have invested back sooner rather than later!

There's no way FC United will move in. Plans for FC's own ground are at an advanced stage and consultation is currently happening with residents in Moston concerning a plot of land there. FC won't want to move in with anyone else as the plan is a "home of our own". And a name change to 'FC United of Salford'? Would be kind of missing the point, but never mind.

Actually, as a football fan who doesn't know any Stockport fans, I can safely say they have been screwed over by Sale. It's a shame the supporter's trust couldn't turn things around, but when you're not fully in control of your own destiny these things happen.

| I'd rather anyone other than Sale, this is more about the Media than the sport. I also wouldn't trust Kennedy.
We need to use the new stadium as a marketing tool. why are there no signs on the motorway side of the new build declaring this to be the home of RL? If Sale sign to move in papers like MEN will suddenly start calling it their stadium. Lets get there and market it as our home and increase the fans coming once the stadium is established as the Home of Salford Reds then maybe allow Sale in for the 2013 season.

I still don't understand why they haven't got a huge sign on the M60 side of the site with the same wording as on the "road" side.

Perhaps because the motorway agency won't allow a big sign on the side of the motorway for obvious reasons....i mean can you imagine the carnage if just one driver reads that and doesn't see what the driver in front is doing.!!!!
Not a difficult one that one.

It could have something to do with the 'Advertisement Control System' which can be extremely complicated and requires special planning consent. I recall a few years ago the club being proactive and advertising forthcoming matches on signs all over salford, before the council put a stop to it.

Shut up with your reasoned explanations and start slagging the club off immediately, or feck off
