Quote: John Gilbert Reds "Marwan Koukash’s young son is infact two years old. What really happened was Eamon McManus invited him as a guest to St Helens a couple of occasions.'"
My error about his son, I know he has 5 children, perhaps one of his elder daughters showed some interest in the Saints< My Mother is from Rainford where he lives, and there are many different stories of his connections to St Helens and McManus, even in the media.
I have no doubt he is a very successful businessman, when you think how it is only a short period since he started with one horse! perhaps more as a hobby! and I have always praised him and said how good he is for the game, his many great business contacts it would be good for the game if he may introduce one to the London Club I support!
I stand by that success is not so easy to come, money does not buy everything, look at the money our owner has put into the club, Manchester has the same problem as we do, people in the main in Manchester do not take to rugby league that easy, the old Salford Club was based around a tight community and then Friday night rugby attracted many neutral supporters, I used to attend a lot! It will be interesting if the team is successful will it attract large attendances? it has not worked that way with Huddersfield. Why is it that a failing Sale club at one time, doing a little better this season attracted larger attendances at the same ground?
I wish Salford and The Good Doctor every success!
