Oh it's complete nonsense alright, and part quoting my post doesn't prove your point or weaken my argument. Manchester's boom isn't because of an influx of Rugby League starved residents.

What you seem to be advocating is a move to relocate Salford to a Manchester, let's say they will be called or merged with Manchester Rangers and they can then flourish spreading the Rugby League Gospel across the whole of Greater Manchester whilst recognizing that Wigan Leigh Rochdale Oldham Swinton will draw on most of the appetite for the game.

Well it seems that this has been mooted before and there wasn't any traction. I'm not au fait with the current state of play but Rangers have a connection with Salford but with Salford being the senior partner. Oh and the current fans who moan about getting a bus from Weaste to Barton, well a trip to Belle Vue or the Etihad Campus mmm don't think so

Decision day tomorrow.

I hope they sort something out but can understand (without knowing the full facts) why other Clubs are taking their time giving the thumbs up as I'd say that any bail out no matter how temporary needs to be a one off with the issues that brought this cash flow crisis on resolved in future.

It's a balancing act isn't it, we are in competition but need (viable) competitors and the pool is small enough as it is, perhaps too small?

This difficulty should have been brought up before the end of last season ,especially as London Broncos have once more had to suffer relegation.

Well it’s not the first time they have been bailed out this way. Not sure what the different reasons for each time but there as to be a line drawn how many times this can be done. Maybe that’s why the clubs have gone away to think/look at it.

Think this time Salford have to demonstrate that going forward they can be sustainable. Hopefully with the stadium situation sorted out they can get better revenue streams from it and this shows they don’t need to get the begging bowl out again. Salford have done well on the pitch with limited resources if they can replicate that off the pitch they should be ok. Read some are laying the blame at Blease’s feet for this.
