You are John Inverdale and I claim my £5 pounds..

Is there a paucity of success in cycling, wrestling, boxing, squash, all of which have centres of excellence in the North West ?
All of which have had major investment. So money is
spent on sport in T'North and the north is successful in many sports.
Not only is your comment bigotry, it's imbecilic.

Are the followers of those sports you mention confined to the North of England??... (That's a serious question, as you sound like you may have knowledge of those sports, though as far as I know, Boxing is as popular in London and Glasgow as it is in Liverpool, Manchester and Sheffield?)

The problem RL has is that our keenest followers ARE confined to the north of England - Its a very restricted market to sell to a potential sponsor.... Compare to Rugby Union, a national sport, which is inferior in quality but miles ahead in terms of marketing and sponsorship.

That has to be correct.

Now we have Hemmings rightly going on about our great game and,in the same breath,mocking the new money that's coming in because the Doctor chooses to do things his own way to shake a bit of life ,and PR, into it.

You started off by saying Salford has a bad image and the club should change its name to Manchester.

Then you say any club whose supporters are from the North won't get sponsorship.

How's changing the name to Manchester going to help then?

Firstly, the conversation started about the possibility of your owner snapping up various sports club all around the Manchester area - I offered the opinion (admittedly in a unsubtle way) that if he was planning some sporting superbrand, then the name Manchester would be easier to sell to possible sponsors, than Salford.

I've then offered the opinion that the main problem our sport has in marketing itself nationally, is that it is almost unique in being a sport based in a very narrow strip of the country.... Asking people outside of the north of England, to take an interest in something that culturally has nothing to do with them is always going to be a big ask - I don't know of any other major sport in this country that has this problem?

Whether we disagree with it, or not, the north of England DOES have a certain image to those outside of the area, and RL is ingrained in that image..... From a positive point of view, the more Marwan Koukash's and Simon Moran's that the sport can attract, the better, in terms of trying to pull out of that shadow, but I really feel its always going to be an uphill struggle on that score.

Has the Salford club been struggling to find sponsors in recent years?

Yes, the problem the sport has in marketing itself nationally is that it is perceived as a northern sport. That's not really relevant to your argument that Salford and those other willing mergees should change their name to Manchester though.

Again, yes, but again not relevant to your Salford to Manchester argument. I'd also argue that it needs more Marwans than it does Morans. Marwan publicises the club and the sport as a whole whenever he can. Simon Moran doesn't. He just inflicts Take That on us. Time to step up to the plate, Simon.

I'm not sure how many sponsors you have had in recent years, but the fact that you wouldn't exist without Koukash's intervention, tells me that your cash inflow wasn't that great?

As for the whole Salford/Manchester thing, well its all hypothetical, but it would be a more accurate description of the relevant parts to call a Salford/Swinton/Oldham/Rochdale merger, Manchester than Salford.... Whatever the reality may be (and it probably depends on where your loyalties lie), nearly everybody outside Salford sees yourselves as the very junior neighbour to Manchester.

As for Marwan's and Simon Moran's influence on the sport, well, while all publicity is welcome, at the moment most people still sense Koukash has the whiff of a Robert Maxwell about him.... Yes, he could indeed be a major player in our sport in the coming years, but to detract from Moran's achievement in turning Warrington RLFC from a shambles of a club, into one of the most admired in the sport, simply because he hasn't got a huge ego, is a bit of nonsense (though I do sense you may have had a bit of tongue-in-cheek when you said it?)

Lack of sponsorship is not our main problem.
Name change to Manchester would not bring any benefit.
Salford, Swinton, Oldham, Rochdale cannot join to form a 'superclub'.

What our club needs is:

1) An improved team, competitive most weeks ( 20014 - 20015)
2) Better engagement between the club and existing fans (see other thread)
3) Improved access to stadium grounds by having a second entry/exit route across the canal ( late 2014)
4) Direct access to M60 from car park (2015)
5) Development of area around stadium to provide more facilities for visitors
6) Landscaping of stadium grounds ( hopefully with some Willow trees) to improve visual appearance of the stadium site.
7) Implement phase 2 and 3 of the stadium plan to give a much better atmosphere in the ground.

These things might take years but they could all happen.
Any links with Swinton, Oldham and Rochdale should be cooperation that benefits all clubs but allows each to maintain its identity.

Quote: Dita's Slot Meter "Koukash has the whiff of a Robert Maxwell about him.... '"

Disgraceful statement to follow on from your poor efforts firstly to second guess the intentions of the man on the unsubstantiated rumours reported in a newspaper and then seriously slurring Salford and its inhabitants.
Your own club has recently gained Emirates as a sponsor.In soccer they have ventured into the crime free zone that is London,a place down south last time I looked,and north to Manchester.
The reason rich individuals like Dr Koukash don't sponsor rugby league may be because people like your have taken it upon themselves to insult him.Even on the Leeds forum they couldn't resist despite the topic under discussion being the player who the England camp attempted to evoke sympathy for but whom it seems breached discipline,as per Gareth Hock,but there the similarities end.
How many opposition fans at how many different clubs is that,now ?
You must be the only individual who can compare Dr Koukash to Maxwell or Sir John Hall.


Excellent post Red John.I like reading your posts.Keep 'em coming.

Well done 'ave It - Takes a real man to apologise ! a014.gif

The similarity I drew with Maxwell was simply that before the truth came out about him, Maxwell was a huge egotist, who lived on the oxygen of publicity (Surely, even you can acknowledge there is a bit about your new owner there?) - His numerous ventures into football were often accompanied by massive promises, which never materialised.

While I'm not suggesting that Koukash is anything near the crooked levels that Maxwell was, to quite a few observers he appears to be a man who has his fingers in many pies, with his undeniable charisma being able to carry it all along.... For the good of Salford RLFC and Rugby League in general, we have to hope he is the real deal and not the fraud that Maxwell was, because if you promise so much and fail to deliver, then it can leave a bad smell.

Maybe, and I'm as guilty as anybody, it is a RL fan's paranoia to question anything that seems too good to be true, with regard to their sport.... Many neutral observers, and even a few of your own fans, must privately think why a man who admits to have had no interest in the sport and even less in your club, should be willing to invest so much into it - Though, has I have said before, I hope it goes well, because if Koukash succeeds then it could spark interest in other similarly ego-driven businessmen to dip their toe into our sport.

Sorry for the delay in replying.I was waiting to see published a comment by Ryan Hall in the Yorkshire press regarding the removal of Hardaker from the England squad,in a similar vein to his comment concerning Gareth Hock.I don't think it's going to happen.
Team togetherness ! On a par with the rugby league family.

I think the expression is 'revisionist history' where you remark on Robert Maxwell.Don't,whatever you do,take into consideration the thoughts and feelings of members of the Koukash family when,without any foundation,you vilify his character on this forum.Forget,also,that he is almost certainly one of the frequent flyers on Emirates to his business interests in Dubai.( He,and his family,must be one of your club sponsors best customers )

Like many people he was turned on to rugby league when he first observed the sport.Is that wrong ?
I don't think one needs to be a businessman to be ego-driven.
I am still at a loss to understand why Dr Koukash has been singled out,amongst all the owners of rugby league clubs,to be subjected to such vitriol.
All of this thread has been conjecture based on something which may never happen.
Quite remarkable - as the late David Coleman may have said.

Fans witter on all day long that RL is too parochial yet immediately berate a man who has come from outside and fallen in love with the game. Is it not strange that everyone has this great vision for the future of our sport involving change at the top, restructure, injection of money etc yet when someone comes in and says he'll do that, he is told he has to do it the 'Traditional' way? That he's dreaming. That he'll never succeed?

He has his character questioned by those who know nothing of it. He has his finances questioned by those same people. Even our RL Media poke fun.

It's no wonder new money are hesitant to dip their toes into RL...

Great Dita' s slot meter
Guessing you were one of the many who used to ask the question what do Salford bring to Super League well we now have a guy who only last week was talking Rugby League to the world's sporting media at the biggest sporting event in Australia (Melbourne Cup) and he is now accused of being on an ego trip.
Now wonder we are regarded as a little Northern sport.

Ps. I've often heard people who sell concert tickets described as ticket touts but I wouldn't link
everybody who sells music events as a ticket tout.
