Not like this country to go for the easy targets. icon_rolleyes.gif

I thought he was fined 3k for this,earlier.

The 4th February was the Launch at The Lowry where he addressed the supporters and members of the Press.

No one complained and the Press luvved it.

Strange.Unnecessary;but not surprising.

Welcome to Jibsville [b:1gp5b0r3]To Pay Is To Fail[/b:1gp5b0r3]:25105.jpg



A Bradford fan comes on here to post the news and one of the first people to respond is a Wakefield fan. Obsessed.

Salford Red Devils RLFC. [quote="Gotcha":y7izhg01]Salford won't win Super League in my lifetime. Even saying in jest they would sounds stupid.[/quote:y7izhg01]:

Bradford are skint, RFL need to assist them even further with their finances. I know, lets give Koukash a fine.

“Marwan Koukash – financing the whole of Super League since 2013”

Quote: Wildcat26 "Unfortunetly he has to follow the rules like everyone else'"

We are Still waiting for the coach that accused Marwan of tapping up his players and claimed he had evidence and would provide it to the RFL.
The silence from him and the RFL on this is deafening.

Now is that following the rules like everyone else, or is it one rule for those that can pay and another for those that can't

This! Really?

I think you'll find that factually incorrect JGR, and quite frankly insulting to many fans of other "Bigger" clubs than Salford Red Devils

Your in dreamland if you think Leeds and Salford would merge that will never happen:

Only the massively thick ones to be fair.

As a KR fan, and fan of rugby league in general, I find this fine absolutely ridiculous. How on earth can an 'organisation' like the RFL fine Dr Koucash for "engaging in conduct which is prejudicial to the interests of the game".

The RFL have been guilty of this for years. How about fining themselves for the Stobbart deal, a deal they themselves admit has set them back a couple of years. You would laugh if it wasn't so sad that this group is running the game.

I wish Koukash was running the game, at least it would get noticed by the rest of the country then.

Good luck for the rest of the season.

Yes,they're a bit silly.
Wood said that part of the problem with the Stobart deal was the way it was portrayed in the media.
The whole problem with the Stobart deal was the deal itself.
They've picked a fight with the wrong bloke,although perhaps he picked the fight with them and they've messed up their response.

I think he's a reak tonic gor the game personally. RL has never had as many column inches.

So...what did he actually say that was so dramatic?

I'm a Bulls fan and I think the Dr is fantastic for Saford and the game in general, we have needed someone like him for years.Any bad comments about him from other clubs is pure jealousy,I certainly wish we had someone like him,maybe his wife,who knows

I think he could teach the clowns at the RFL a thing or two on how to be a success

As a Wigan fan I agree with what the above poster has written. I think if the RFL carry on, Dr Koukash will walk away from the game. We need more like Dr. Koukash and less of the idiots at the RFL.

Andy's paws are obviously a little too plump for his keyboard, but, you knew that.

Regarding Dr Koukash I haven't read any details of what he actually said so can't comment on the validity of the RFL action, but, at £1,000 it would appear to be money well spent...following seemingly his mantra that there's no such thing as bad publicity.

He had a little rant at the RFL and detractors in general in a public forum. Liberally sprinkled with F-words. Everything he said was true, it was probably his passionate delivery that caused the discomfort at the RFL.

The bloke has grown on me to be fair, though I worry that his interviews and press conferences are a little too ad-lib considering how passionate he is about Salford and the game in general.

I don't really want to hear Dr Koukash publically mouthing off at the RFL and F'ing and blinding, and I don't think I'm in a minority - considering we all want the best for everyone.

I think as a successful business man he should be doing better than this - athough I appreciate his motives.........

I would like to see him constructively criticising, for sure, but to be seen to be working WITH the RFL publically, as opposed to trying to fight against them as this portrays. Ultimately, the best solution for all is for the RFL and Dr K to be scratchng each other's backs.

That would make investment in the game seem more appealing to other wealthy businessmen which would naturally develop the game, and perhaps make decision making within the RFL more informed.

The problem Dr K is facing IMO is that his ideas at the moment are too advanced for the stage the game is at - marquee players is a great idea but at present, clubs are strggling financially with the cap as it is, so to increase spending limits should be looked at once all SL clubs are financially more stable.

The 9's tournamenthe wants though could be the tonic for this!
