As a salford city council employee i am disgusted with the amount of money being poured into this club(salford). And at a time were many council employees face massive reductions in pay or worse unemployment. I have made my feelings known to the councillors and made my union know what is happening. I would not like any rugby club to go bust as it plays a major part in communities however it should not be at the expense of hard working people.

Quote: Roman Officer "Change the word 'could' for 'will' and I totally agree
Apologies R.O. - that was my cautious approach. I'm certain if you asked Keith Freer, Trevor Barton, Simon Toon etc. they would use the word 'will' - they have done the sums and are very positive.

Quote: maurice "Little Leyther mentality has held this town back for 40 years. We have a great location just off the M6 for road transport links but need a train station to complete the picture. We have industrial land a plenty, cheap housing and a generally work orientated population.
We have a fantastic stadium in a great location, a great relationship at last with LSV Co and a huge populus within 5 miles to attract.'"


Your dead right Maurice and the fact that the big four supermarket chains have built or extended their superstores in a small town in Wigan proves that there is a plan somewhere for more investment. A rail link is a must for Leigh now and the sooner the better.

Mo , you forgot we're also in a prime location for commuting to the metropolises of Manchester and Liverpool . Can we attract these new interlopers down to the LSV that aren't grounded in the game ? .

Sorry for appearing a little Leyther but we're going to need a sustained 5 year plus plan that isn't going to break the bank before we can get that foothold in the SL , that is if and when the muppets at Red Hall finally see sense and bring back P & R .

I do have ambitions to see a healthy Leyth team in the SL but I fear it will come at a cost , so I hope that we can come up with a cunning plan to prepare ourselves to be a yo-yo club for a few years yet retaining any quality players we can attract and set our goal no higher than 2nd bottom of the SL initially so that we can build up gradually without going pop .

I agree though that with the bigger games will come bigger crowds and therefore more money to spend on the squad , I just hope we can get the right team behind the scenes to manage the dosh and not go all in for an all or nothing approach .

But hey ho let's give it a go . It just needs carefull planning .

well I had written a long rambling post about all that is wrong about RL, then I deleted it. Lets face it Salford will be bailed out, and continue on like nothing has ever happened.

However, until that happens I will continue to annoy any Salford fan that comes into contact with me. After all they have been dishing it out to me for decades.

I do not want them to go under. I just want them relegated to C1 and have to rebuild from there. icon_twisted.gif
